   Show answer

   Answer: D. Multimeter

   Given that: Pressure : Barometer :: Electricity : ? Here, a barometer is an instrument which is used to measure pressure. Similarly, multimeter is an instrument which is used to measure electricity. Hence, multimeter is the correct answer.

3. Q3.Which of the following numbers will replace the question mark (?) in the given series? 5, 20, 60, 240, 720, ?

   • A.2580
   • B.2880
   • C.2160
   • D.2675
   Show answer

   Answer: B. 2880

   Given series: 5, 20, 60, 240, 720, ? The pattern followed here is: 5 × 4 = 20 20 × 3 = 60 60 × 4 = 240 240 × 3 = 720 720 × 4 = 2880 Hence, 2880 is the correct answer.

4. Q4.Two statements are given, followed by two conclusions numbered I and II. Assuming the statements to be true, even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements. Statements: All rivers are lakes. Some seas are rivers. Conclusion: Some seas are lakes. All lakes are rivers. Neither Conclusion I nor II follows. Only Conclusion II follows. Only Conclusion I follows Both Conclusions I and II follow. If ‘+’ means ‘–’, ‘–’ means ‘×’, ‘×’ means ‘÷’, ‘÷’ means ‘+’, then what will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation? 39 × 3 – 11 ÷ 57 + 29 = ?

   • A.163
   • B.190
   • C.185
   • D.171
   Show answer

   Answer: C. 185

   . As per the question, following direction chart can be made: definite. So, false. Hence, only conclusion I follows.

Since, AB = 6 km CD = 3 km and EF = (2x + 1)km As we can see, the distance between E and F is similar to the distance between D and B vertically. So, DC + AB = EF  3 + 6 = 2x + 1  9 = 2x + 1 D 3 km C (x + 1) km E x kmAx kmA6 km6 km(2x + 1) km(2x + 1) kmB F x km A x km A 6 km 6 km (2x + 1) km (2x + 1) km [[IMG:image64.png]]D2AD2AHere, each letter, number, or shape which is in the corners in shifting one step forward in clockwise direction.

6. Q6.Which two signs should be interchanged to make the given equation correct? 39 ÷ 3 – 11+ 57 × 29 = 171

   • A.– and ×
   • B.– and +
   • C.÷ and +
   • D.÷ and –
   Show answer

   Answer: A. – and ×

   Given equation: 39 ÷ 3 – 11 + 57 × 29 = 171 Upon checking option 1 and interchanging – and ×, we get 39 ÷ 3 × 11 + 57 – 29 = 171 ⇒ 13 × 11 + 57 – 29 = 171 ⇒ 143 + 57 – 29 = 171 ⇒ 200 – 29 = 171 ⇒ 171 = 171 LHS = RHS Hence, it is the correct option.

7. Q7.Stanley starts cycling from Point A. He cycles X km towards the west and then turns right and cycles 3 km. He again turns right and cycles for X + 1 km. He again turns right and cycles for 2X + 1 km. He takes a final right turn and cycles for 1 km to stop at Point B. Point B is 6 km south of Point A. What is the value of X?

   • A.9
   • B.3
   • C.4
   • D.5
   Show answer

   Answer: C. 4

   As per the question, following direction chart can be made: Since, AB = 6 km (x + 1) km D E CD = 3 km 3 km and EF = (2x + 1)km C x km A (2x + 1) km As we can see, the distance between E and F is similar to 6 km the distance between D and B vertically. So, B F DC + AB = EF ⇒ 3 + 6 = 2x + 1 ⇒ 9 = 2x + 1 ⇒ 2x = 8 ⇒ x = 4 Hence, 4 is the correct answer.

8. Q8.Which of the following numbers will replace the question mark (?) in the given series? 69, 65, 67, 63, ?, 61

   • A.65
   • B.60
   • C.62
   • D.64
   Show answer

   Answer: A. 65

   Given series: 69, 65, 67, 63, ?, 61 The pattern followed here is: 69 – 4 = 65 65 + 2 = 67 67 – 4 = 63 63 + 2 = 65 65 – 4 = 61 Hence, 65 is the missing number.

9. Q9.Which two mathematical signs should be interchanged to make the given equation correct? (45 × 2) ÷ 15 – (6 × 3) + 10 – (63 ÷ 21) = 17

10. Q10.A word is represented by only one set of numbers as given in any one of the alternatives. The sets of numbers given in the alternatives are represented by two classes of alphabets as shown in the given two matrices. The columns and rows of Matrix-I are numbered from 0 to 4 and that of Matrix-II are numbered from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row and next by its column, for example, ‘Q’ can be represented by 12, 43, etc. and ‘M’ can be reprresented by 67, 99, etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word ‘PRICE‘.
