Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

Let the five consecutive odd numbers be x-4, x-2, x, x+2, x+4

According to the question,

Difference between square of the average of first two odd number and the of the average last

two odd numbers is 396

i.e, x+3 and x-3

$$\begin{gathered} ⇒x + 32 - x - 32 = 396 \\ ⇒ x2 + 9 + 6x - x2 + 6x - 9 = 396 \\ ⇒ 12x = 396 \\ ⇒ x = 33 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the smallest odd number is 33 - 4 = 29.

For the input "A rolling stone gathers no moss", the steps followed are:

Step 1: rolling A stone gathers no moss

Step 2: rolling stone A gathers no moss

Step 3: rolling stone gathers A no moss

Step 4: rolling stone gathers no A moss

After 4 steps the fifth word is "A".

Unit digit of this expression is always 1 as the base ends with 1. 

For the tenth place digit we need to multiply the digit in the tenth place of the base and unit digit of the power and take its unit digit.

i.e, tenth place digit in 2151 is 5 and

tenth place digit in power 415 is 1

And the units digit in the product of 5 x 1 = 5

Therefore, last two digits of 2151415 is 51.

F = Rs. 498

TD = Rs. 18

PW = F - TD = 498 - 18 = Rs. 480

R = 5%

TD=PW×TR100

⇒18=480×T×5100

=> T = 3/4 years = 9 months

Let original length = x and original breadth = y. 

Decrease in area = xy -[(80/100x) * (90/100y)]  

=[(xy-(18/25)xy)]

=(7/25)xy

Decrease % =[(7/25)xy * (1/xy) * 100] =28%

The students should sit in between two teachers. There are 7 gaps in between teachers when they sit in a roundtable. This can be done in 7P6ways. 7 teachers can sit in (7-1)! ways.

 Required no.of ways is = 7P6.6! = 7!.6!

Let the Cost price of the powerbank = Rs. P

But given that by selling it at Rs. 1950, it gives a loss of 25%

=> P x 75100 = 1950
=>P = 1950 x 10075 = Rs. 2600
Now, to get a profit of 25%

Selling Price = 2600 x 125100 = Rs. 3250.
