Q:

Mark the odd man out in the given number series

24.3, 23.1, 20.7, 17.1, 12.4

A) 12.4 B) 17.1
C) 20.7 D) 23.1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 12.4

Explanation:

The given series 24.3, 23.1, 20.7, 17.1, 12.4 follows a pattern that

24.3

24.3 - 1.2 = 23.1

23.1 - 2.4 = 20.7

20.7 - 3.6 = 17.1

17.1 - 4.8 = 12.3 not 12.4

 

Hence, the odd man or odd number in the given series is 12.4

Q:

If 6th March, 2005 is Monday, what was the day of the week on 6th March, 2004?

A) Sunday B) Saturday
C) Tuesday D) Wednesday
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Sunday

Explanation:

The year 2004 is a leap year. So, it has 2 odd days.

But, Feb 2004 not included because we are calculating from March 2004 to March 2005.

So it has 1 odd day only.

The day on 6th March, 2005 will be 1 day beyond the day on 6th March, 2004.

Given that, 6th March, 2005 is Monday.

6th March, 2004 is Sunday (1 day before to 6th March, 2005).
