Aptitude and Reasoning Questions

The logic behind the sequence given in the question is +4, +4, +6, +6
Therefore, the sequence which follows the same logic in the given options is DHLRX.

The toys are different; The boxes are identical
If none of the boxes is to remain empty, then we can pack the toys in one of the following ways
a. 2,2,1
b. 3,1,1

Case a. Number of ways of achieving the first option 2−2–1

Two toys out of the 5 can be selected in5C2 5 ways. Another 2 out of the remaining 3 can be selected in3C2 ways and the last toy can be selected in 1C1  way.

However, as the boxes are identical, the two different ways of selecting which box holds the first two toys and which one holds the second set of two toys will look the same. Hence, we need to divide the result by 2.

Therefore, total number of ways of achieving the 2−2–1 option is:

5C2*3C22=10*32=15 ways.

Case b. Number of ways of achieving the second option 3−1–1

Three toys out of the 5 can be selected in 5C3  ways. As the boxes are identical, the remaining two toys can go into the two identical looking boxes in only one way.
Therefore, total number of ways of getting the 3−1–1 option is5C3=10 ways.

Total ways in which the 5 toys can be packed in 3 identical boxes
=number of ways of achieving Case a + number of ways of achieving Case b
=15 + 10 = 25 ways

In this type cases we always have loss only.

Let the present ages be K,M

Given K/M = 4/5

5K - 4M = 0 ......(1)

Also given that,

M - (K + 5) = 3

M - K = 8 .........(2)

Then, by solving (1) & (2)

M = 40 yrs and K = 32 yrs

Hence, Total of ages = 40 + 32 = 72 yrs

Difference of ages = 40 - 32 = 8 yrs.

Let their ages one year  ago be 4x and 3x years

 Sum of their present ages =(4x +1+3x+1) = 16 years.

Each corresponding letter moves five places forward in the alphabet.
Here as BE is related to GJ then PS will relate to UX.

3000 – 3 = 2997

Given,
The ratio of the doctors to the nurses is 11 : 8
Number of nurses = 8/19 x 209 = 88.
