Direction (6-8): Find the missing number or character from the given alternatives?
5
6
8
9
Solution:
We have: 93 – (27 + 63) = 3; 79 – (38 + 37) = 4.
So, missing number = 67 – (16 + 42) = 9.
5
19
27
89
Solution:
We have: (6 × 3) + (5 × 15) = 93, (4 × 8) + (18 × 1) = 50.
So, missing number = (9 × 6) + (7 × 5) = (54 + 35) = 89.
Q8. WFB, TGD, QHG, ?

NJK
OIK
Solution:
Q9. In this question, one term in the number series is wrong. Find out the wrong term. 5, 27, 61, 122, 213, 340, 509
27
61
122
509
Solution:
Clearly, the given series becomes a triangular-pattern series if each term in IV is 6.
Then, in III, 27 must be replaced by (30 – 6) i.e. 24 & 12 by (24 – 6) i.e. 18.
Again, in II, 34 must be replaced by (61 – 24) i.e. 37 and 22 by (37 – 18) i.e. 19.
Thus is the given series, 27 is wrong and must be replaced by (5 + 19) i.e. 24.
Q10. Find the missing number from the given alternatives? 6, 18, 3, 21, 7, 56, ?
8
9
63
64
Solution:
Each term at an even place in the series is the product of its two adjacent terms.
Thus, if the missing term be x, then we have:
7 × x = 56 or x = 56 ÷ 7 = 8.

Man's attitude to various animals changed many times in the course of centuries. From indifference or practicality, he went on to adoration and deification, and then to hatred. Ancient Egyptians, for example, highly appreciated the cat's ability to destroy rodents. The cat was much superior in this respect to the grass–snakes and weasels they had kept in their houses before. These proved unable to cope with hordes of rats which invaded Egypt from Asia. So the cat, a very useful animal, was ranked as a sacred animal and one of the most important animals, too. The goddess of the Moon, fertility and child–birth, Bast herself was portrayed by the Egyptians as a woman with a cat's head.
Sumptuous temples were built to this goddess, where cats were kept in luxury and fed the choicest of foods. They had their own priests and votaries, more numerous as a matter of fact than any other sacred animal could boast. According to the Greek historian Herodotus, the festival in the city of Bubastis, which had a temple dedicated to cats, was attended by as many as 700 thousand, who brought their offerings to the goddess in the shape of figurines of her made of gold, silver and bronze and adorned with precious stones.

Q16. The LCM of two numbers is 40 times their HCF. The sum of the LCM and HCF is 1,476. If one of the numbers is 288, find the other numbers?
169
180
240
260
Solution:
Given, L.C.M = 40 H.C.F
l = 40 h And, l + h = 1476 41h = 1476 ⇒ h = 36
We know,
L.C.M × H.C.F = I no. × II no. 40h × h = 288 × x 40 × 36 × 36 = 288 × x
x = 180
Thus, the other no. 180
Q17. Four bells toll at intervals of 14, 21 and 42 minutes respectively. If they toll together at 11:22 am, when will they toll together for the first time after that?
11:56 am
12:04 pm
12:06 pm
11:48 am
Solution:
LCM of 14, 21 and 42 is 42.
It means that after every 42 minutes all bells will toll together.
Then after 11:22 am they will toll at 11:22 + 42min = 11:64 = 12:04 pm.
