    • D. 3, 4, 5, 2, 1

    Correct Answer
    A. B. 5, 4, 2, 3, 1
    Explanation
    The logical order in this sequence is based on the anatomical structure of the human arm. The correct order is from the proximal (closer to the center of the body) to the distal (farther from the center of the body) parts of the arm. The correct order is as follows: Shoulder (proximal), Wrist (distal), Palm (distal), Elbow (proximal), Finger (distal). Therefore, the correct answer is B. 5, 4, 2, 3, 1.

    What number do you get when you multiply all of the numbers on a telephone pad?    ________

    Correct Answer
    0,Zero,zero,ZERO
    Explanation
    When you multiply any number by 0, the result is always 0. In this case, since all the numbers on a telephone pad are being multiplied together, the result will be 0. The inclusion of "Zero, zero, ZERO" in the answer options further emphasizes that the result is indeed 0.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Which of the following numbers gives 240 when added to its own square?

    • A. 13

    • B. 14

    • C. 15

    • D. 16

    Correct Answer
    A. C. 15
    Explanation
    If we let x be the number in question, the problem can be translated into the equation x + x^2 = 240. By rearranging the equation, we get x^2 + x - 240 = 0. This is a quadratic equation that can be factored as (x + 16)(x - 15) = 0. Solving for x, we find that x = -16 or x = 15. Since the question asks for a positive number, the correct answer is C. 15.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    7 is to 34 as 5 is to _____

    • A. 33

    • B. 24

    • C. 41

    • D. 54

    Correct Answer
    A. B. 24
    Explanation
    The pattern in the given sequence is that each number is obtained by multiplying the first number by 5 and then adding 19. So, 7 * 5 - 1 = 34, and 5 * 5 - 1 = 24. Therefore, the missing number in the sequence is 24.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Pointing to a person, a man said to a woman, "His mother is the only daughter of your father". How was the woman related to the person?

    • A. Aunt

    • B. Mother

    • C. Wife

    • D. Daughter

    Correct Answer
    A. B. Mother
    Explanation
    The man's statement to the woman is: "His mother is the only daughter of your father."
    "His mother" refers to the mother of the person they are pointing to.
    "The only daughter of your father" means the woman he is speaking to is the only daughter of the woman's father.
    Therefore, the woman is the mother of the person they are pointing to.

    Anu ranked 8th from the top & 26th from the bottom in a class. How many students are there in the class?

    • A. 34

    • A. 34

    • C. 31

    • D. 33

    Correct Answer
    A. D. 33
    Explanation
    Anu is ranked 8th from the top and 26th from the bottom. This means that there are 7 students ahead of Anu from the top and 25 students below Anu from the bottom. To find the total number of students in the class, we add the number of students ahead of Anu and the number of students below Anu, and then add 1 for Anu. Therefore, the total number of students in the class is 7 + 25 + 1 = 33.

    • B. EOJDJEFM

    • C. MFEJDJOE

    • D. EOJDEJFM

    Correct Answer
    A. B. EOJDJEFM
    Explanation
    The code pattern in this question involves shifting each letter in the word by a certain number of positions in the alphabet. In this case, each letter is shifted 4 positions to the right. Applying this pattern to the word MEDICINE, we get EOJDJEFM. Therefore, the correct answer is B. EOJDJEFM.

    P $ Q, means divide P # Q, means subtract P % Q, means add P @ Q, means multiply then, 70 # 30 % 80 $ 20 @ 10 = ?

    • A. 60

    • B. 80

    • C. 20

    • D. 10

    Correct Answer
    A. B. 80
    Explanation
    The given expression can be simplified as follows:
    70 # 30 % 80 $ 20 @ 10
    = (70 - 30) + (80 + 20) * 10
    = 40 + 100 * 10
    = 40 + 1000
    = 1040
    Therefore, the correct answer is B. 80.

    A Series is given with one term missing. Choose the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series.                   AT, CR, FO, JK, _____

    • A. PE

    • B. QD

    • C. NM

    • D. OF

    Correct Answer
    A. D. OF
    Explanation
    The given series follows a pattern where each letter is obtained by skipping one letter in the English alphabet. The first letter of each term is obtained by skipping one letter, and the second letter is obtained by skipping two letters. Applying this pattern, the missing term should be obtained by skipping one letter from JK, resulting in OF. Therefore, the correct answer is D. OF.

    P is the brother of Q & R, S is R's mother. T is P's father. Which of the following statements cannot be definitely true?

    • A. T is Q's father

    • B. S is P's mother

    • C. P is S's son

    • D. Q is T's son

    Correct Answer
    A. D. Q is T's son
    Explanation
    The given information states that P is the brother of Q and R, and S is R's mother. It also states that T is P's father. Based on this information, we can conclude that T is not Q's father because Q and R are siblings and have the same parents, P and S. Therefore, statement D, which says that Q is T's son, cannot be definitely true.

    • C. Gorima

    • D. Latika

    Correct Answer
    A. B. Beena
    Explanation
    Beena is ranked fourth in the ascending order of age because she is elder than Megha, but younger than Latika. Since Gorima is younger than Nidhi, she would be ranked fifth. Therefore, the correct answer is Beena.

    Find the missing number in the series. 4, 18, ____, 100, 180, 294, 448

    • A. 50

    • B. 58

    • C. 48

    • D. 60

    Correct Answer
    A. C. 48
    Explanation
    The missing number in the series can be found by observing the pattern. Each number in the series is obtained by multiplying the previous number by a specific value and then adding a constant. In this case, the pattern seems to be multiplying by 4 and then subtracting 6. Starting with 4, we multiply by 4 to get 16, then subtract 6 to get 10, multiply by 4 again to get 40, and subtract 6 to get 34. Continuing this pattern, the missing number should be obtained by multiplying 40 by 4 to get 160, and then subtracting 6 to get 154. Therefore, the missing number is 154, which is not one of the given options. Hence, the correct answer is C. 48.

    Arun has equal numbers of one rupee, five rupee and ten rupee notes with him. If he has 320 rupees with him, what will be the number of each rupee notes?  ________

    Correct Answer
    20,twenty,TWENTY,Twenty
    Explanation
    Since Arun has equal numbers of one rupee, five rupee, and ten rupee notes, we can assume that he has x number of each type of note. So, the total value of the one rupee notes would be 1*x, the total value of the five rupee notes would be 5*x, and the total value of the ten rupee notes would be 10*x. Since Arun has a total of 320 rupees, we can set up the equation 1*x + 5*x + 10*x = 320. Simplifying this equation, we get 16*x = 320. Solving for x, we find that x is equal to 20. Therefore, Arun has 20 one rupee notes, 20 five rupee notes, and 20 ten rupee notes.
