(A) 860

(B) 1140

(C) 2880

(D) 3240

Show Answer

Solution

4 × 1 = 4;  4 × 2 = 8; 8 × 3 = 24; 24 × 4 = 96; 96 × 5 = 480

So, required number = (480 × 6) = 2880.

Hence the answer is (C)

Q.2.

(A) M

(B) P

(C) Q

(D) S

Show Answer

Solution

F + P = 6 + 16 = 22; G + N = 7 + 14 = 21; J + E = 10 + 5 = 15.

Since K = 11, so value corresponding to missing letter = ( 27 – 11 ) = 16.

So, the missing letter is the 16^th letter of the English alphabet, which is P. Hence, the answer is (b).

Q.7.

(A) 49

(B) 50

(C) 51

(D) 52

Show Answer

Solution

In the second column, ( 5 × 8) – 2 = 48.

So, missing number = ( 6 × 9) – 3 = ( 54 – 3) = 51.

Hence, the answer is (C)

Q.8.

(A) 2

(B) 3

(C) 4

(D) 5

Show Answer

Solution

In the third column, 16 × ( 32 ÷ 4) = 128

Let the missing number be x. Then, in the second column, we have :

14 × ( 24 ÷ x) = 112 ⟺ 24 ÷ x = 8 ⟺ x = 3.

Hence, the answer is (b).

Q.9. 

(A) P

(B) R

(C) S

(D) V

Show Answer

Solution

In the first row, F + I = 6 + 9 = 15 = O.

In the second row, A + J = 1 + 10 = 11 = K.

So, in the third row, missing letter = E + M = 5 + 13 = 18 = R.

Hence, the answer is (b).
