Q:

What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following number series  ?

12, 24, 26.5, 79.5, ?, 330

A) 211 B) 101.5
C) 82.5 D) 99
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 82.5

Explanation:

The given series 

 

12   24   26.5   79.5   ?   330 follows a pattern that,

 

12 x 2 = 24

 

24 + 2.5 = 26.5

 

26.5 x 3 = 79.5

 

79.5 + 3 = 82.5

 

82.5 x 4 = 330

 

Hence, the missing number is 82.5

Q:

Read both the statements given below and answer the question.

Q : Which train did Harish catch to go to office ?

Statements :

A. Harish missed his usual train of 4.15 p.m. A train comes in every 15 minutes.

B. Harish did not catch the 4.45 p.m. train or any train after that time.

A) If statement B alone is sufficient but statement A alone is not sufficient. B) If statement A alone is sufficient but statement B alone is not sufficient.
C) If both statement together are sufficient, but neither statement alone is sufficient. D) If statement A and B together are not sufficient.
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) If statement A and B together are not sufficient.

Explanation:

From both statements we cannot conclude the train catched by Harish

Since he missed at 4.15 and train coes at 4.30, 4.45, 5.00,...

But in B given that he didn't catch the train at 4.45 and after that.

So both statements A & B together are not sufficient to answer the question.
