Answer : 4. "81.5"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 81.5 Explanation: Let the number of students in classes A, B and C be P, Q and R respectively.Then, total score of A = 83P, total score of B = 76Q, total score of C = 85R.Also given that,(83P + 76Q) / (P + Q) = 79=>4P = 3Q.(76Q + 85R)/(Q + R) = 81=>4R = 5Q,=>Q = 4P/3 and R = 5P/3Therefore, average score of A, B, C = ( 83P + 76Q + 85R ) / (P + Q + R) = 978/12 = 81.5

Answer : 1. "49 kmph"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 49 kmph Explanation: Speed of the train relative to man = (125/10) m/sec = (25/2) m/sec. [(25/2) x (18/5)] km/hr = 45 km/hr. Let the speed of the train be 'x' km/hr. Then, relative speed = (x - 4) km/hr. x - 4 = 45 => x = 49 km/hr.

Answer : 2. "Gasoline additive"
Explanation :
Answer: B) Gasoline additive Explanation: Tetraethyl lead is a highly toxic compound used as a gasoline additive. Tetraethyl lead abbreviated as TEL, is an organo lead compound with the formula (CH3CH2)4Pb. It is a petro-fuel additive which in turn caused increased vehicle performance. This is also used as an antiknock agent in gasoline and jet fuels. Tetraethyl lead is absorbed rapidly by the skin, the lungs, and the gastrointestinal tract. It is converted to triethyl lead, which might be responsible for its toxicity.

Answer : 1. "36 & 90"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 36 & 90 Explanation: the next 2 number in series we need to divide the series into 2 different series First series : 4 , 6, 12, 30 ?? Second Series : 12,18,26, ?? So we need to see for the pattern for those series in order to find the next two number , we can do this by finding the difference or division , multiplication logic whatever may apply : Pattern of Series 1 : 6 divide 4 : 1.5 Next number i.e 12 divided by 6=2 Next number i.e 30 divided by 12 =2.5 So series is going in multiples of 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 , so on So first series will look like 4 , 6, 12, 30, 30x3 =90 Pattern of Series 2 : 12,18,26, ?? Its simple Adding numbers with iterative logic (i.e 6, 8, then followed by 10, 12) Series will be like 12,18,26,36. For the next two numbers : Series will be like 4, 12, 6, 18, 12, 26, 30, 36, 90
