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:

Two cards are drawn together from a pack of 52 cards. The probability that one is a spade and one is a heart, is:

A) 3/20 B) 29/34
C) 47/100 D) 13/102
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 13/102

Explanation:

Let S be the sample space.

 

Then, n(S) = 52C2=(52 x 51)/(2 x 1) = 1326.

 

Let E = event of getting 1 spade and 1 heart.

 

n(E)= number of ways of choosing 1 spade out of 13 and 1 heart out of 13 = 13C1*13C1 = 169.

 

P(E) = n(E)/n(S) = 169/1326 = 13/102.
