Q:

Direction: What value should come in place of the question mark (?) in the following question?

12.5×14÷8.75+42=50+?

A) 18 B) 12
C) 32 D) 42
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 12

Explanation:

By replacing the “?” with “x”

(12.5×14÷8.75) x (100/100) + 42 = 50 + X

(125*140)/875 + 42 = 50 + X

140/7 + 42 = 50 + X

20 + 42 = 50 + X

62 = 50 + X

X = 62 - 50

X = 12

Find the next number in the sequence?

28, 16, 28, 76, 274

A) 1233 B) 1243
C) 1256 D) 1276
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1243

Explanation:

Given number sequence is 28, 16, 28, 76, 274

Here the sequence follows a pattern that

28

28 x 0.5 + 2 = 14 + 2 = 16

16 x 1.5 + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28

28 x 2.5 + 6 = 70 + 6 = 76

76 x 3.5 + 8 = 266 + 8 = 274

274 x 4.5 + 10 = 1233 + 10 = 1243
