- A.3 and 4
- B.4 and 8
- C.5 and 3
- D.5 and 9
Show answer

Interchanging 5 and 3: 8 × 5 ÷ 4 + 9 − 3 = 10 + 9 − 3 = 16. ✓
Q3.If (2)# * 4 = 2 and (4)# * 4 = 16, then what is the value of A in (6)# * A = 18?
- A.12
- B.14
- C.16
- D.20
Show answer
Answer: A. 12
Pattern: n³/A. 2³/4=2 ✓, 4³/4=16 ✓. So 6³/A = 18 → 216/A = 18 → A = 12.
Q4.In the following question, select the number which can replace the question mark (?) from the given alternatives. (See figure.)
- A.189
- B.227
- C.277
- D.339

Q6.Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the statements.
