Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

One way to deal with fractions is to convert them all to decimals. 

In this case all you would need to do is to see which is greater than 0.5.

Otherwise to see which is greater than ½, double the numerator and see if the result is greater than the denominator. In B doubling the numerator gives us 8, which is bigger than 7. 

Cup is used to drink something with the help of lips. Similarly, birds collect grass with the help of beak to make her nest.

Hence, Cup : Lip :: Bird : Grass.

Here Grass is to Erosion and whereas Dam is to Water.

Since Grass prevents Erosion similarly Dam prevents Water flow.

Hence, Grass : Erosion :: Dam : Water.

2l+bb=51      => 2l + 2b = 5b     => 3b = 2l 

b=(2/3)l

Then, Area = 216 cm² 

=> l x b = 216     => l x (2/3)l =216 

l = 18 cm.

51 + 52 + 53 + ...........+ 100

 = (1 + 2 + 3 + .... + 100) - (1 + 2 + 3 + ...... + 50)

 = It is in the form of n(n+1)2 series summation

= n1 = 100 , n2 = 50

=100100+12 - 5050+12

 =  (5050 - 1275) = 3775

Let the sum be Rs. x

a. gives, S.I = Rs. 9000 and time = 9 years.

b. gives, Sum + S.I for 6 years = 2 x Sum

--> Sum = S.I for 6 years.

Now, S.I for 9 years = Rs. 9000

S.I for 1 year = Rs. 9000/9 = Rs. 1000.

S.I for 6 years = Rs. (1000 x 6)= Rs. 6000.

--> x = Rs. 6000

Thus, both a and b are necessary to answer the question.

The given number series follows a pattern that,

56

56 + 8 = 64

64 - 16 = 48

48 + 32 = 80 (Not equal to 90)

80 - 64 = 16

16 + 128 = 144 

Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 90.
