Q:

56% of 225 + 20% of 150 = ? - 109

 

Find the value of '?' in the above equation

A) 264 B) 220
C) 241 D) None
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 264

Explanation:

Given 56% of 225 + 20% of 150 = ? - 109

we know that a% of b = b% of a

Now,

225% of 56 + 20% of 150 = ? - 109

200% of 56 + 25% of 56 + 20% of 150 = ? - 109

112 + 14 + 30 = ? - 109

? = 112 + 14 + 30 + 109

? = 264

Q:

Find the next two numbers in the sequence

4, 12, 6, 18, 12, 26, 30, ?, ?

A) 36 & 90 B) 90 & 41
C) 45 & 36 D) 41 & 36
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 36 & 90

Explanation:

the next 2 number in series we need to divide the series into 2 different series

First series : 4 , 6, 12, 30 ??

Second Series : 12,18,26, ??

So we need to see for the pattern for those series in order to find the next two number , we can do this by finding the difference or division , multiplication logic whatever may apply :

 

  • Pattern of Series 1 :

 

6 divide 4 : 1.5

Next number i.e 12 divided by 6=2

Next number i.e 30 divided by 12 =2.5

So series is going in multiples of 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 , so on

So first series will look like

4 , 6, 12, 30, 30x3 =90

 

  • Pattern of Series 2 : 12,18,26, ??

 

Its simple Adding numbers with iterative logic (i.e 6, 8, then followed by 10, 12)

Series will be like 12,18,26,36.

 

For the next two numbers : Series will be like 4, 12, 6, 18, 12, 26, 30, 36, 90
