Tipu Sultan introduced a number of administrative innovations during his rule, including his coinage, a new Mauludi lunisolar calendar, and a new land revenue system which initiated the growth of the Mysore silk industry.

He was one of the few South Indian kings to provide stiff resistance to British imperialism, along with Hyder Ali. He is applauded as a ruler who fought against British colonialism.

Q:

If  1 1 1 1 = R
    2 2 2 2 = T
    3 3 3 3 = E
    4 4 4 4 = N

 

Then  5 5 5 5 = ?

A) Y B) Z
C) T D) X
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Y

Explanation:

If you add all the terms of the LHS of equality, then the last letter of the sum written in words would give you the RHS.

1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4 = FOUR

2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 8 = EIGHT

3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12 = TWELVE

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16 = SIXTEEN

 

So, following the same pattern.

5 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 20 = TWENTY

 

That gives us our answer to 5 5 5 5 =  "Y".
