Answer : 1. "4/3 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 4/3 days Explanation: Let the total number of documents to be printed be 12. The number of documents printed by P in 1 day = 4. The number of documents printed by Q in 1 day = 3. The number of documents printed by R in 1 day = 2. Thus, the total number of documents that can be printed by all the machines working simultaneously in a single day = 9. Therefore, the number of days taken to complete the whole work = 12/9 = 4/3 days.

Answer : 2. "9801"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 9801 Explanation: Clearly, alternatively we add and subtract 10% of a term to obtain the next term of the series.Thus, 10000 + (10% of 10000)= 11000; 11000 - (10% of 11000) = 9900; 9900 + (10% of 9900) = 10890; 10890 - (10% of 10890) = 9801. 9801 + (10% of 9801) = 9801+980 = 10781.So, missing term = 10890- (10% of 10890)= 9801.
