C) 450 D) 479
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 450

Differences is 9, 28, 65, 126

9 = 2^3 + 1

28 = 3^3 + 1

65 = 4^3 + 1

126 = 5^3 + 1

Now, next difference must be 6^3 + 1 = 217

Q:

Three strategies P, Q and R have been initiated for cost cutting in a company producing respectively 20%, 30% and 10% savings. Assuming that they operate independently, what is the net saving achieved ?

A) 49.6% B) 50.4%
C) 33.67% D) 66.66%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 49.6%

Explanation:

As these three strategies P, Q and R are independent so these will cut cost one after the other.
If initial cost is Rs 100, then
20% cost is cut after initializing strategy P, then cost will remain 80% = 80
further 30% cost is cut after strategy Q, then cost will remain 70% of 80 = 56
further 10% cost is cut after strategy R, then cost will remain 90% of 56 = 50.4

Thus final cost remains 50.4 % of the original cost. Hence net saving is 100 - 50.4 = 49.6 %.
