Quantitative Aptitude - Arithmetic Ability Questions

The given number series follows a pattern that

196, 169, 144, 121, 100, 81, ?

    -27  -25   -23   -21  -19  -17

=> 81 - 17 = 64

Therefore, the series is 196, 169, 144, 121, 100, 81, 64.

Man's rate in still water = (15 - 2.5) km/hr = 12.5 km/hr.

Therefore,  Man's rate against the current = (12.5 - 2.5) = 10 km/hr.

The word 'LEADING' has 7 different letters.

When the vowels EAI are always together, they can be supposed to form one letter.

Then, we have to arrange the letters LNDG (EAI).

Now, 5 (4 + 1) letters can be arranged in 5! = 120 ways.

The vowels (EAI) can be arranged among themselves in 3! = 6 ways.

Required number of ways = (120 x 6) = 720.

Weight of the teacher = (35.4 x 25 - 35 x 24) kg = 45 kg.

2.5 × 1 + 1 = 3.5

3.5 × 2 + 2 = 9

9 × 4 + 4 = 40

40 × 8 + 8 = 328

Commission up to 10000 = 10000x9100 = 900 

Again after 10000, 

              Commission    :   Bonus 

                           9       :   3 

                         3x        :   x

 Therefore,   Bonus = 1380-900×14 = Rs. 120

The given series is 8, 14, 24, 60, 180

8

8 x 1.5 = 12 (NOT 14)

12 x 2 = 24

24 x 2.5 = 60

60 x 3 = 180

Hence, the odd man in the given series is 12.
