A) 87.63 B) 91.12
C) 93.41 D) 97.94
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 91.12

Here the pattern followed by the series is

12 

12 x 0.75 = 9

9 x 1.5 = 13.5

13.5 x 2.25 = 30.3

91.12 x 3.75 = 341.71

 

Hence, the missing number in the sequence is 91.12.

Which of the following code is for ' plan ' and ' translate ' ?

A) @E8 and &N5 B) &N4 and @E9
C) @E1 and &N4 D) &N4 and @D7
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) &N4 and @E9

Explanation:

plan is given in first step. Total count of letters is 4 and last letter is N and ‘p’ is coded as & so Final answer will be-  &N4

We have to find 'translate' code. As we can see that this word is not given in any steps but as we know the idea of that so we can solve it.

Step I: first we will count the letters of that word that is 9, then we put digit 9 at the right end.

Step II: we will put the last letter of that word then it will like- E9

Step III: at the last step ‘t’ is coded for ‘@’(first letter of each word is coded by a specific symbol like here ‘t’ is coded for ‘@’. We can find the first coded symbol by looking at the other given words.

Answer will be - @E9
