- A.76
- B.70
- C.62
- D.86
Show answer
Answer: D. 86
If 19 + 4 # 5 = 39 and 21 # 5 + 6 = 111, then 11 + 15 # 5 = ? The pattern followed is: If ‘+’ is the first sign then the second sign is ‘×’ and vice versa. 19 + 4 # 5 = 39 ⇒ 19 + 4 × 5 = 19 + 20 = 39 21 # 5 + 6 = 111 ⇒ 21 × 5 + 6 = 105 + 6 = 111 Hence, 11 + 15 # 5 ⇒ 11 + 15 × 5 = 11 + 75 = 86
Q5.If ‘P’ means ‘+’, ‘Q’ means ‘–’, ‘R’ means ‘÷’ and ‘S’ means ‘×’, then which of the following equation is correct?
- A.14 R 7 S 6 P 4 Q 3 = 11
- B.9 S 8 P 6 R 4 S 8 = 80
- C.3 S 6 P 2 Q 3 R 6 = 35/2
- D.11 R 12 S 48 P 10 Q 6 = 48
Show answer
Answer: D. 11 R 12 S 48 P 10 Q 6 = 48
‘P’ means ‘+’, ‘Q’ means ‘–’, ‘R’ means ‘÷’ and ‘S’ means ‘×’, Now we check each option, 1. 14 R 7 S 6 P 4 Q3 = 11 ⇒ 14 ÷ 7 × 6 + 4 – 3 = 2 × 6 + 4 – 3 = 12 + 4 – 3 16 – 3 = 13 ≠ 11 2. 9 S 8 P6 R4S 8 = 80 ⇒ 9 × 8 + 6 ÷ 4 × 8 = 9 × 8 + 1.5 × 8 = 72 + 12 = 84 ≠ 80 3. 3 S 6 P2Q 3 R6 = 35/2 ⇒ 3 × 6 + 2 – 3 ÷ 6 = 3 × 6 + 2 – 0.5 = 18 + 2 – 0.5 19.5 ≠ 35/2 4. 11 R 12 S 48 P 10 Q 6 = 48 ⇒ 11 ÷ 12 × 48 + 10 – 6 = 0.9166 × 48 + 10 – 6 = 44 + 10 – 6 = 48 Hence, the correct answer is 48.
