Correct Answers:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
B B D C B B B B C B
Explanations:
1. 7 +9 + 11 – 6 =?
2 7 3 1
? = (7 + 9 + 11 – 6) + ( + + – )
3 12 4 2
8+7+9–6 18
? = 21 + = 21 +
12 12
3 1 1
? = 21 + = 22 + = 22
2 2 2
Hence, option B is correct.
2. As the base on both the sides LHS and RHS are equal, we can compare the indices.
6.5 + 12.25 = 21 – x
18.75 = 21 – x
Therefore, x = 21 – 18.75
⇒ 2.25
Hence, option B is correct.
3. 1332 ÷ 36 × 23 + 287 – 189 = ?
1332
⇒ × 23 + 287 – 189
36
= 851 + 287 – 189 = 1138 – 189 = 949
Hence, option D is correct.
4. 0.8% of 2580 + 16% of 685 = ?
8 16
?= × 2580 + × 685
10 × 100 100
= 20.64 + 109.6 = 130.24
Hence, option C is correct.
5. (153 × 1331) ÷ (11 × 17) = ?
153 × 1331
?= = 9 × 121 = 1089
11 × 17
Hence, option B is correct.
6. √ +√ –√ =?
? = 43 + 23 – 39 = 27
Hence, option B is correct.
7. 9845 – 3746 + 5483 = 7416 + ?
? = 9845 – 3746 + 5483 – 7416
? = 4166
Hence, option B is correct.
8.
5 2 136
of 1456 of of =?
13 7 17
5 2 136
?= × 1456 × ×
13 7 17
? = 5 × 16 × 2 × 8
or, ? = 1280
Hence, option B is correct.
9. 4.8 × 4.5 × × 3.6 × 50 = ?
⇒ ? = 4.8 × 4.5 × 3.6 × 50 = 3888
Hence, option C is correct.
10. 133 + 212 – 193 + 5360 = ?
or, ? = 2197 + 441 – 6859 + 5360
or, ? = 1139
Hence, option B is correct answer.
