 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 25th and 21st


Number of students behind Manoj in rank = (31 - 7) = 24.
So, Manoj is 25th from the bottom.
Number of students behind Sachin in rank = (31 - 11) = 20.
So, Sachin is 21st from the bottom.

Number of students behind Aruna in rank = (46 - 12) = 34. So, Aruna is 35th from the last.


Question 175. Use the following series of elements (alpha-number-symbol) to answer these questions. Every two-digit number (given in brackets) is to be treated as single number.2 * 8 56 B 9 $ Q 3 E 1 7 R D 4 £ (13) U . K (18) A (14) PIf each of the letters in the above series of elements is given a value equivalent to its serial number in the English alphabet, what will be the difference between the sum of the consonants and the sum of the vowels used in the series?
  1.    109
  2.    41
  3.    82
  4.    27
  5.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option B. -> 41


The letters used in the series are B Q E R D U K A P. sum of the positions of consonants according to alphabet = 2 + 17 + 18 + 4 + 11 + 16 = 68. Similarly, sum of the vowels positions = 5+ 21 + 2 = 27.
Hence required difference = 68 - 27 = 41.


Question 176. Use the following series of elements (alpha-number-symbol) to answer these questions. Every two-digit number (given in brackets) is to be treated as single number.2 * 8 56 B 9 $ Q 3 E 1 7 R D 4 £ (13) U . K (18) A (14) PBQ in the above series is related to ER in a similar way as AP is related to ?
  1.    RD
  2.    U .
  3.    KA
  4.    Q3
  5.    6B
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> KA


Number of elements between B and Q is the same as that between E and R. Similarly, number of elements between A and P is the same as that between K and A.


Question 177. Study the following arrangement of digits, letters and symbols and answer the questions given below: M K 3 $ R E 5 F % T U J * 8 P H B N 2 I S # A 3 7 D 4Four of the following five are alike in a certain way based on the above arrangement and form a group. Which is the one that does not belong to that group?
  1.    3RF
  2.    %U8
  3.    8H2
  4.    1#7
  5.    H8U
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option E. -> H8U


Here the rule followed is : All the groups consist of three elements. Where, 1st element + 2 = 2nd element and 2nd element + 3 = 3rd element.


Question 178. Use the following series of elements (alpha-number-symbol) to answer these questions. Every two-digit number (given in brackets) is to be treated as single number.2 * 8 56 B 9 $ Q 3 E 1 7 R D 4 £ (13) U . K (18) A (14) PWhich of the following groups of elements will come in the place of the question mark in the series of elements given below?682    $ B S      E Q 9      ?      £ D 7
  1.    .
  2.    4 (13)
  3.    U £ D
  4.    .
  5.    None of these
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option E. -> None of these


First element of each group follows the order +3, + 3,... and so on.Middle element and last element also follow the same trend. Hence (?) should be replaced by R13.


Question 179. Study the following arrangement of digits, letters and symbols and answer the questions given below: M K 3 $ R E 5 F % T U J * 8 P H B N 2 I S # A 3 7 D 4How many such consonants are there each of which is either immediately preceded by a number and/or immediately followed by a symbol?
  1.    None
  2.    One
  3.    Two

Question 180. Study the following arrangement of digits, letters and symbols and answer the questions given below: M K 3 $ R E 5 F % T U J * 8 P H B N 2 I S # A 3 7 D 4If the positions of F and B are interchanged, similarly, the positions of U and A are interchanged, how many such vowels will be there each of which will be both immediately preceded and immediately followed by a consonants?
  1.    None
  2.    One
  3.    Two
  4.    Three
  5.    None of these
