Answer : 4. "10"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 10 Explanation: Here the given number series is 6, 3, 3, 4.5, 10 The odd one in the given series is 10 The pattern it follows is 6 6 x 0.5 = 3 3 x 1 = 3 3 x 1.5 = 4.5 4.5 x 2 = 9 Hence, the odd number is 10.
Q: The interest on a certain deposit at 4.5% p.a. is Rs. 202.50 in one year. How much will the additional interest in one year be on the same deposit at 5% p.a. ? 2386 05b5cc6dde4d2b4197774ea19

Answer : 1. "Rs. 22.5"
Explanation :
Answer: A) Rs. 22.5 Explanation: We know that I = PTR/100=> P = 20250/4.5 = 4500Now, new Interest at 5% = 4500x1x5/100 = 225Now the additional amount = 225 - 202.5 = Rs. 22.5
Q: An intelligent boy is doing a jigsaw with 275 pieces. Each day that he fits pieces together there are fewer pieces left, and it is reasonable to assume that he fits more pieces each day because the number left to sort out diminishes progressively. Hence he is able to fit an extra piece as each day goes by. On the first day he fits 20 pieces. How many days does it take for him to complete the puzzle ? 2385 05b5cc71ee4d2b4197774f59a

Answer : 1. "11 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 11 days Explanation: Let 'n' number of days it take to complete. we know that sum of n number= n/2[2a+(n-1)d]where a=20,d=1;n/2[2x20+(n-1)1]=275n[n+39]=550n2 + 39n - 550 = 0 n2+ 50n - 11n - 550 = 0(n-11) (n-50) = 0n-11 = 0;n = 11(Days).

Answer : 4. "The atom has more electrons than protons."
Explanation :
Answer: D) The atom has more electrons than protons. Explanation: Anions are atoms or radicals (groups of atoms), that have gained electrons. Since they now have more electrons than protons, anions have a negative charge.
Q: Sum of present ages of P and Q is 41. Age of P 2 year hence is equal to age of R, 1 year ago. Age of P, 4 year hence is equal to age of Q 1 year ago and ratio of present age of P and S is 3 : 4. Find the difference of age of R and S. 2380 05b5cc6aae4d2b4197774cf4c

Answer : 2. "3"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 3 Explanation: According to the given data, P + Q = 41 ......(1) R - 1 = P + 2 R = P + 3 and P + 4 = Q - 1 => Q = P + 5 ....(2) From (1)&(2) P = 18 Q = 18 + 5 = 23 R = 18 + 3 = 21 => P/S = 3/4 => S = 4/3 x 18 = 24 Required Difference = S - R = 24 - 21 = 3.

Answer : 1. "LiCH3"
Explanation :
Answer: A) LiCH3 Explanation: The stability of the ions is determined by the energy of the lone pairs. Carbon has the least effective nuclear charge (Zeff) and so the lone pair on the CH3− ion has the highest energy, making it the least stable ion and so the strongest base. The Zeff increases as we move across the period until we get to fluorine which has the greatest Zeff and so its lone pairs have the lowest energy, making F− the least basic ion. In order of decreasing basicity they are ranked LiCH3 > LiNH2 > LiOH > LiF. We are dealing with the ions F−, OH−, NH2− and CH3− and so the factor which influences their basicity is the stability of the ion compared to its conjugate acid.
Q: Rs. 69 were divided among 115 family members so that each lady gets 50 paise less than each gentleman, and each gentleman received twice the paise as each lady received. Find the number of gentlemen in the family? 2378 05b5cc67be4d2b4197774c1f0

Answer : 1. "23"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 23 Explanation: Total number of female members = 115 Let the number of males = x Number of females = y => x + y = 115 ......(1) According to the given data, x + y(0.50) = 69 ......(2) From (1) & (2), we get 0.5y = 46 => y = 46 x 2 = 92 => x = 115 - 92 = 23 Hence, required number of gentlemen in the family = x = 23.
