Answer: B) 225 Explanation: The series follows the following pattern 5 X 5 – 5 = 20 20 X 4 – 4 = 76 76 X 3 – 3 = 225 225 X 2 – 2 = 448 Hence, the term 225 denoted by (d) completes the series

Answer: B) J, L Explanation: This question concerns a committee’s decision about which five of eight areas of expenditure to reduce. The question requires you to suppose that K and N are among the areas that are to be reduced, and then to determine which pair of areas could not also be among the five areas that are reduced. The fourth condition given in the passage on which this question is based requires that exactly two of K, N, and J are reduced. Since the question asks us to suppose that both K and N are reduced, we know that J must not be reduced: Reduced         ::      K, NNot reduced   ::      J The second condition requires that if L is reduced, neither N nor O is reduced. So L and N cannot both be reduced. Here, since N is reduced, we know that L cannot be. Thus, adding this to what we’ve determined so far, we know that J and L are a pair of areas that cannot both be reduced if both K and N are reduced: Reduced        ::      K, NNot reduced  ::      J, L Answer choice (B) is therefore the correct answer.

Answer: A) 20% स्पष्टीकरण: अंग्रेजी में उत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 60% हिंदी में उत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 45% दोनों विषयों में उत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 25% एटीक्यू, केवल अंग्रेजी में उत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 60 - 25 = 35% का प्रतिशत विद्यार्थी केवल हिंदी में उत्तीर्ण हुए = 45 - 25 = 20% इसलिए, अनुत्तीर्ण छात्रों का प्रतिशत = 100 - (35 + 25 + 20) = 100 - 80 = 20%।

Answer: A) 66 sec Explanation: For ticking 6 times, there are 5 intervals. Each interval has time duration of 30/5 = 6 secs At 12 o'clock, there are 11 intervals,so total time for 11 intervals = 11 x 6 = 66 secs.
