S7. Ans.(b)
Sol. Let A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, …, X = 24, Y = 25, Z = 26.
Then, M = 13 = 1 + 3 = 4;
O = 15= 1 + 5 = 6;
B = 2; I = 9;
L = 12 = 1 + 2 = 3;
T = 20 = 2 + 0 = 2;
Y = 25 = 2 + 5 = 7.
So, MOBILITY = 46293927.
Similarly, X = 24 = 2 + 4 = 6;
N = 14 = 1 + 4 = 5.
So, EXAMINATION = 56149512965.
S8. Ans.(c)
Sol. I is the 9th letter in the word as well as in the English alphabet.
S9. Ans.(a)
Sol. The given series consists of cubes of natural numbers only. 256 is not the cube of any natural number.
S13. Ans.(c)
Sol. The pattern is + 0.05, + 0.10, +0.15,…
So, missing term = 0.8 + 0.20 = 1.
S14. Ans.(c)
Sol. In all other pairs, 2nd number = (1st number × 4) – 10.
S15. Ans.(b)
