CAT Questions

---

In this series, the third letter is repeated as the first letter of the next segment. The middle letter, A, remains static. The third letters are in alphabetical order, beginning with R.

Let the heights of Cat, Table and Turtle be C, T & R respectively.

From the above given figure,

C + T - R = 170 ......(a)

R + T - C = 130 ......(b)

Adding above eqns (a) & (b), we get

2T = 300

T = 150 cm

Hence, the height of the table is 150 cm.

The given number series is  21 56 102 160 231 316

21      56       102        160      231       316         416

   +35    +46       +58       +71      +85       +100

        +11      +12       +13      +14      +15

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 316 + 100 = 416.

1 Joule = 107 ergs = 0.000239 Kilo Calories.

• Joule is the Unit of Energy.

Joule is equal to Energy transferred to an object when a force of One Newton acts on that object in the direction of its motion through a distance of one metre.(1 N-m)

In mathematics, a geometric progression, also known as a geometric sequence, is a sequence of numbers where each term after the first is found by multiplying the previous one by a fixed, non-zero number called the common ratio.

Herein the given sequence, 4, 2, 1, 0.5, 0.25, 0.125,...

Common Ratio r = 2/4 = 1/2 = 0.5/1 = 0.25/0.5 = 0.125/0.25 == 0.5.

BRS - Bank Reconciliation Statement

A bank reconciliation statement is a statement prepared by organizations to reconcile the balance of cash at bank in a company's own records with the bank statement on a particular date.

The differences may arise because of the following reasons:

     - Cheques deposited into bank but not yet collected by bank

     - Cheques issued by the organization but not yet presented for payment

     - Cheques directly deposited by customers into the bank

     - Bank charges debited by bank

     - Interest credited or some receipts directly collected by bank based on org. request.

     - Some payments directly made by bank based on the organizations request.

So, the statement shows the reasons as what are the reasons for difference in balance.

The given series is 1/2, 1, 3/2, 6, 5/2, 3

1/2

1/2 + 1/2 = 1

1 + 1/2 = 3/2

3/2 + 1/2 = 2 (Not 6)

2 + 1/2 = 5/2

5/2 + 1/2 = 3

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 6.
