Q:

What value will come in place of question mark (?) in the number - series given below  ? 

4, 30, ?, 1440, 7195, 71940

A) 145 B) 545
C) 650 D) 999
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 145

Explanation:

4       30       ?     1440       7195      71940

 

Here the given series follows a pattern of

 

4

 

4 x 10 - 10 = 30

 

30 x 5 - 5  = 145

 

145 x 10 - 10 = 1440

 

1440 x 5 - 5 = 7195

 

7195 x 10 - 10 = 71940

 

Hence, the missing number is 145

Q:

56% of 225 + 20% of 150 = ? - 109

 

Find the value of '?' in the above equation

A) 264 B) 220
C) 241 D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 264

Explanation:

Given 56% of 225 + 20% of 150 = ? - 109

we know that a% of b = b% of a

Now,

225% of 56 + 20% of 150 = ? - 109

200% of 56 + 25% of 56 + 20% of 150 = ? - 109

112 + 14 + 30 = ? - 109

? = 112 + 14 + 30 + 109

? = 264

Q:

What is the place value of 6 in 64?

A) 6 B) 60
C) 64 D) 10
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 60

Explanation:

We know that,

● Each digit has a fixed position called its place.

● Each digit has a value depending on its place called the place value of the digit.

● The face value of a digit for any place in the given number is the value of the digit itself

● Place value of a digit = (face value of the digit) × (value of the place).

 

Hence, the place value of 6 in 64 = 6 x 10 = 60.

Find the compound interest on Rs. 10,000 in 2 years at 4% per annum, the interest being compounded half-yearly.

A) 524.32 B) 624.32
C) 724.32 D) 824.32

Q:

Two old friends, Jack and Bill, meet after a long time.

 

Jack: Hey, how are you man?
Bill: Not bad, got married and I have three kids now

 

Jack: That’s awesome. How old are they?
Bill: The product of their ages is 72 and the sum of their ages is the same as your birth date.

 

Jack: Cool … But I still don’t know.
Bill : My eldest kid just started taking piano lessons.

 

Jack: Oh now I get it.
How old are Bill’s kids ?

A) 3, 3, 8 B) 2, 6, 6
C) 1, 6, 12 D) 1, 8, 9
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 3, 3, 8

Explanation:

Let’s break it down. The product of their ages is 72. So what are the possible choices?

 

2, 2, 18 – sum(2, 2, 18) = 22
2, 4, 9 – sum(2, 4, 9) = 15
2, 6, 6 – sum(2, 6, 6) = 14
2, 3, 12 – sum(2, 3, 12) = 17
3, 4, 6 – sum(3, 4, 6) = 13
3, 3, 8 – sum(3, 3, 8 ) = 14
1, 8, 9 – sum(1,8,9) = 18
1, 3, 24 – sum(1, 3, 24) = 28
1, 4, 18 – sum(1, 4, 18) = 23
1, 2, 36 – sum(1, 2, 36) = 39
1, 6, 12 – sum(1, 6, 12) = 19

 

The sum of their ages is the same as your birth date. That could be anything from 1 to 31 but the fact that Jack was unable to find out the ages, it means there are two or more combinations with the same sum. From the choices above, only two of them are possible now.

 

2, 6, 6 – sum(2, 6, 6) = 14
3, 3, 8 – sum(3, 3, 8 ) = 14

 

Since the eldest kid is taking piano lessons, we can eliminate combination 1 since there are two eldest ones. The answer is 3, 3 and 8.
