Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the given sets. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 – operations on 13 such as adding /subtracting /multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.) (9, 7,189) (4, 13, 156)
Option 1: (5, 9, 160)
Option 2: (6, 9, 162)
Option 3: (8, 5,125)
Option 4: (7, 8, 188)
Correct Answer: (6, 9, 162)
Solution : Given: (9, 7,189); (4,13,156)
The product of the first and second numbers is multiplied by 3, to get the third number – ⇒ (9, 7,189)→(9 × 7) × 3 = 189 ⇒ (4, 13,156)→(4 × 13) × 3 = 156
Let's check each
Question : Directions: Find the missing number from the given responses in the following question.
Option 1: 5052
Option 2: 5100
Option 3: 5094
Option 4: 4860
Correct Answer: 5100
Solution : Multiply the given numbers by 3 and then add 6 to the resultant number to obtain the next number (pattern starting from 18).
(18 × 3) + 6 = 54 + 6 = 60 (60 × 3) + 6 = 180 + 6 = 186
Question : A swimming pool has 3 drain pipes. The first two pipes A and B, operating simultaneously, can empty the pool in half the time that C, the 3rd pipe, alone takes to empty it. Also pipe A, working alone, takes half the time taken by pipe B. Together they take 6 hours 40 minutes to empty the pool. The time taken by pipe A to empty the pool, (in hours) is:
Option 1: 15 hours
Option 2: 10 hours
Option 3: 30 hours
Option 4: 7 hours
Correct Answer: 15 hours
Solution : Let the time taken by pipe B to empty the tank = $2x$ hours Time taken by pipe A to empty the tank = $x$ hours (A and B) takes half of the time that C takes. ⇒$\frac{2}{\frac{1}{2x}+\frac{1}{x}}=\frac{2}{\frac{1+2}{2x}}$= $\frac{4x}{3}$ hours Pipes A, B, and

Question : The marked price of an article is INR 28,000. It can be sold in one of the following ways: Way A: A single discount of 24%. Way B: Two successive discounts of 16% and 10%. Which way will have the lowest selling price and what will be the value of it?
Option 1: Way A, INR 21,168
Option 2: Way B, INR 21,280
Option 3: Way A, INR 21,280
Option 4: Way B, INR 21,168
Correct Answer: Way B, INR 21,168
Solution : Given: The marked price of an article is INR 28,000. Use the formula, $SP=(1-\frac{d_1}{100})\times (1-\frac{d_2}{100})\times MP$ where $SP, d_1, d_2$ and $MP$ are the selling price, the discount percentages, and the marked price. For the Way A, $SP=1–\frac{24}{100}\times 28000$ ⇒ $SP=\frac{100–24}{100}\times 28000$
