2.) Which among the following words can be formed using the letters of the given word only once?

TROUBLESOME

a.) TROUT

b.) BLEAKS

c.) RUBLE

d.) BLOSSOM

Answer: c)

Solution:

Given word:

TROUBLESOME

TROUT = Only one ‘T’ is present in the word, so it cannot be formed using these letters.

BLEAKS = As there is no ‘A’ and ‘K’ in the word, so it cannot be formed using these letters.

RUBLE = It can be formed using these letters.

BLOSSOM = Only one ‘S’ is present in the word, so it cannot be formed using these letters.

Hence, option c.

3.) If in a certain code language ‘SELDOM’ is coded as ‘MFNCMS’ and ‘GIVERS’ is coded as ‘SJXDPG’ then ‘DELUXE’ is coded as in the same code language?

a.) EFMTVD

b.) DFNTVD

c.) EFNTVD

d.) EFNTVE

Answer: c)

Solution:

The words are coded as:

The first and last letter of the words are interchanged with each other.

2^nd letter from left end = Replaced by its next letter in the English Alphabetical series.

Ex ‘E’ is replaced with ‘F’.

3^rd letter from the left end = Replaced by its 2^nd next letter in the English Alphabetical series.

Ex- ‘L is replaced by ‘N’.

4^th letter from the left end = Replaced by its previous letter in the English Alphabetical series.

Ex- ‘D’ is replaced with ‘C’.

5^th letter from the left end = Replaced by its 2^nd previous letter in the English Alphabetical series.

Ex- ‘O’ is replaced with ‘M’.

So,

‘SELDOM’ is coded as ‘MFNCMS’

‘GIVERS’ is coded as ‘SJXDPG’

6.) If ‘A’ means (×), ‘B’ means (÷), ‘C’ means (+), and ‘D’ means (-), then what is the value of the expression:

24 B 3 A 5 A 6 B 12 C 5 D 11

b.) 14

c.) 48

d.) 55

Answer: b)

Solution:

24 B 3 A 5 A 6 B 12 C 5 D 11

Replacing letters with the signs in the expression:

24 ÷ 3 × 5 × 6 ÷ 12 + 5 – 11

By using rule of BODMAS, we get:

24 ÷ 3 × 5 × 6 ÷ 12 + 5 – 11

= 8 × 5 × 0.5 + 5 – 11

= 20 + 5 – 11

= 25 – 11

= 14.

Hence, option b.

9.) In the following question, what will come in the place of question mark?

a.) -3

b.) -4

c.) 9

d.) 0

Answer: d)

Solution:

The pattern followed here is:

The 1^st digit of 1^st number in each row is added to the 1^st digit of the 2^nd number of that row, similarly, the 2^nd digit of 1^st number in each row is added to the 2^nd digit of the 2^nd number of that row, and the difference of both resultant is written.

In row 1 = (1 + 1) – (3 + 2) = (2 – 5) = -3.

In row 2 = (2 + 2) – (4 + 8) = (4 – 12) = -8

In row 3 = (3 + 2) – (4 + 1) = (5 – 5) = 0.

Hence, option d.

10.) Select the related number/word/letter from the given alternatives:

PICSART: SCIPTAR::____: GNIFSER

a.) DIFFERS

b.) BANKERS

a.) 82, 104

b.) 83, 95

c.) 93, 105

d.) 81, 105

Answer: c)

Solution:

The series is (18 + 17) = 35, (35 + 16) = 51, (51 + 15) = 66, (66 + 14) = 80, (80 + 13) = 93, (93 + 12) = 105.

So, 93 and 105 will come in the blank respectively.

Hence, option c.

a.) 35 × 5 ÷ 5 + 22 + 2 + 3

b.) 35 ÷ 5 × 5 + 22 × 2 – 3

c.) 35 + 5 × 5 + 22 – 2 + 3

d.) 35 – 5 + 5 + 22 × 2 + 3

Answer: c)

Solution:

From option (a): we get

35 × 5 ÷ 5 + 22 + 2 + 3

= (35 × 1 + 22 + 2 + 3)

= (35 + 27)

= 62

From option (b): we get

35 ÷ 5 × 5 + 22 × 2 – 3

= (7 × 5 + 44 – 3)

= (35 + 44 – 3)

= (79 – 3)

 = 76.

From option (c): we get

35 + 5 × 5 + 22 – 2 + 3

= (35 + 25 + 22 – 2 + 3)

= (60 + 22 – 2 + 3)

= (85 – 2)

= 83.

From option (d): we get

35 – 5 + 5 + 22 × 2 + 3

= (35 – 5 + 5 + 44 + 3)

= (87 – 5)

= 82.

Hence, option c.
