Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

Each of the numbers except 28, is a multiple of 3.

First letters are common. Second letters are:b, c, c, c, c. One of the four words having c is the last word. Let us see the third letters now ,there are: t, c, q, h. Clearly t is the last. Hence Actuate is the last word. 

We know that d=√2s 

Given diagonal = 20 cm 

=> s = 20/2 cm

Therefore, perimeter of the square is 4s = 4 x 20/2 = 402   cm.

Given 92613 x 62742241 = ? + 89

Using unit digit method,

On LHS,

1 x 1 x 1 = 1

sqrt of last digit 1 => it must end with either 9 or 1

so now

1 x 1 = 1

1 x 9 = 9

On RHS,

? + 89

=> ? = ...1 - 89 = last digit is 11- 9 = 2

or

=> ? = ...9 - 89 = last digit is 9 - 9 = 0

Here in the options last digit 2 is option C.

In each number except 383, the product of first and third digits is the middle one.

Here the given series is 396, 462, 572, 427, 671, 264.

In all the terms, the middle digit is the sum of first and third digit except 427.

So the Odd number in the given series is 427.

Total number of votes = 7500 

Given that 20% of Percentage votes were invalid

 => Valid votes = 80%

 Total valid votes = 7500*(80/100) 

1st candidate got 55% of the total valid votes. 

Hence the 2nd candidate should have got 45% of the total valid votes 

=> Valid votes that 2nd candidate got = total valid votes x (45/100) 

7500*(80/100)*(45/100) = 2700

'Jettison' means to discard and 'salvage' means to rescue something discarded. Hence, 'salvage' is the word which is farthest in meaning to the given word 'Jettison'.
