It's a Question of your Career!

Correct Answer: 1531

Solution : Given:

In the above-given series, add 288 and 292 alternately to get the required missing number –
663 + 288 = 951, 951 + 292 = 1243, 1243 + 288 = 1531, 1531 + 292 = 1823

So, the required missing number is 1531. Hence, the second option is correct.

Correct Answer: No Improvement

Solution : The correct choice is the first option.

The given sentence is in the past tense. It doesn't need any improvement, as it uses the correct verb form to maintain grammatical accuracy and report the event correctly that has happened in the past.

Therefore, the given sentence is correct and requires no improvement.

Correct Answer: didn’t they?

Solution : The third option is the correct answer.

The sentence is a statement followed by a question tag. In English, when the main clause is in the past tense, the tag question should also be in the past tense. So, "didn't they?" is the correct form.

A question tag is a very short clause at the end of a statement that changes the statement into a question. A question tag is formed by inverting the subject and verb of a statement.

Therefore, the correct sentence should be: "They met yesterday, didn't they?"

Correct Answer: Not a member of the Parliament

Solution : The correct option is Not a member of the Parliament.

The Vice-President of India is not a member of either house of Parliament. The Vice-President is a separate constitutional office and does not sit in the Rajya Sabha (Council of States) or the Lok Sabha (House of People). Instead, the Vice-President's primary responsibility is to preside over the Rajya Sabha and undertake other constitutionally mandated duties. The Vice-President is chosen by an electoral college comprised of members of both houses of Parliament, as well as representatives of state and union territory legislatures. Once elected, the Vice-President's major role is to serve as the Rajya Sabha's ex-officio Chairman.
 

Correct Answer: CADB

Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The logical flow of sentences are as follows:

• In sentence C, the idea is introduced that God constructed the human body with forethought and solicitude.
• Sentence A then brings attention to a potential vulnerability as it mentions that the person seems to have become weary, particularly when it comes to the ears.
• Following this, sentence D explains that he left the ears as the most vulnerable part of a human being.
• Finally, sentence B provides the result or consequence of this vulnerability, stating that individuals spend their time hankering after something unattainable, namely silence.

The flow of information follows a logical sequence, starting with the construction of the human body, addressing a vulnerability, and concluding with the consequence of that vulnerability.

Therefore, the correct order is CADB.

Correct Answer: 8

Solution : Given:
The police officer represents a circle, the corrupt represents a triangle, the poet represents a square, and the married represents a rectangle.

In the below diagram, the shaded part represents the common region of unmarried police officers who are not corrupt but are poets. Married represents a rectangle and a triangle represents corrupt people. Therefore, these parts are not included. 

So, 8 unmarried police officers who are not corrupt but are poets. Hence, the first option is correct.

Correct Answer: 3

Solution : $9\sqrt{x} = \sqrt{12} + \sqrt{147}$
⇒ $9\sqrt{x} = 2\sqrt{3} + 7\sqrt{3}$
⇒ $9\sqrt{x} = 9\sqrt{3}$
$\therefore x = 3$
Hence, the correct answer is 3.

Correct Answer: (16, 26, 31)

Solution : Given:
(3,13,18), (29, 39, 44)
Add 10 to the first number to get the second number and add 5 to the second number to get the third number –
⇒ (3,13,18)→3 + 10 = 13, 13 + 5 = 18
⇒ (29, 39, 44)→29 + 10 = 39, 39 + 5 = 44

Let's check each option –
First option: (17, 27, 42)→17 + 10 = 27, 27 + 5 = 32 ≠ 42
Second option: (25, 30, 55)→25 + 10 = 35 ≠ 30, 30 + 5 = 35 ≠ 55
Third option: (26, 30, 47)→26 + 10 = 36 ≠ 30, 30 + 5 = 35 ≠ 47
Fourth option: (16, 26, 31)→16 + 10 = 26, 26 + 5 = 31

So, only the fourth option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the fourth option is correct.

Correct Answer: (1)

Solution : The correct answer is the first option.

Farther should be replaced with further to convey the intended meaning that if he requires additional help, he should be directed to the speaker.

Farther is used to signify physical distance, whereas further is used to refer to something additional to what already exists. Hence, further would be a more appropriate choice for this sentence. The other options, much and best do not go contextually with the sentence.

Therefore, the correct sentence is, "If he wants further help, send him to me".

Correct Answer: Consider

Solution : The correct choice is the fourth option.

Consider means to think about something, typically before making a decision or forming an opinion. It involves examining or reflecting on various aspects of a situation.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

• Supplicate means to earnestly and humbly ask for something, typically in the form of a request.
• Dramatise refers to the act of turning something, such as a story, event, or situation, into a dramatic form.
• Formerly display seems like an incomplete or unclear phrase. "Formerly" generally means in the past or previously, while "display" refers to exhibiting or showing something. Together, they do not form a typical phrase with a specific meaning.

Therefore, the correct sentence is: Consider what happens when you walk into a fast-food restaurant.
