Answer : 4. "253"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 253 Explanation: The first person shakes hands with 22 different people, the second person also shakes hands with 22 different people, but one of those handshakes was counted in the 22 for the first person, so the second person actually shakes hands with 21 new people. The third person, 20 people, and so on... So, 22 + 21 + 20 + 19 + 18 + 17 + 16 + 15 + 14 + 13 + 12 + 11 + 10 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 1= n(n+1)/2 = 22 x 23 /2 = 11 x 23 = 253.

Answer : 2. "360"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 360 Explanation: There are 7 digits 1, 2, 0, 2, 4, 2, 4 in which 2 occurs 3 times, 4 occurs 2 times. Number of 7 digit numbers = 7!3!×2! = 420 But out of these 420 numbers, there are some numbers which begin with '0' and they are not 7-digit numbers. The number of such numbers beginning with '0'. =6!3!×2! = 60 Hence the required number of 7 digits numbers = 420 - 60 = 360
