Solutions of DPP
1. Option (4)
Here the series is: 987654321, 87654321, 7654321, 65.... So, answer is 6.
2. Option (3)
We have to find out even number - even number - odd number sequence.
858676893275342235522811931751
There are four such even numbers: 6, 8, 2 and 8.
3. Option (1)
Here the given numbers are
567 284 696 865 738
When 1 is added to the last digit of each of the above numbers, it becomes as follows:
568 285 697 866 739
After reversing the order of digits, we get
865 582 796 668 937
Now, when the numbers are arranged in ascending order their order becomes as follows:
582 668 796 865 937
Hence, the fourth number is 865 (a number formed by 567). Therefore option (1) is correct answer.
4. Option (4)
Given Number: 4 2 1 5 7 9 3 6 8
Ascending order: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Hence the required pairs are 12, 49, 16
5. Option (3)
Given Number : 7346285
Ascending Number : 2345678
Answer is Two. Those digits are 3,4
6. Option (2)
Total days from 25th June to 15th August = 5 + 31 + 15 = 51 days
51/7 = 7 weeks and 2 days
August 15 = Wednesday + 2 = Friday
7. Option (1)
Clearly, total boys = (24 + 24) – 1 = 47.
8. Option (2)
Clearly, total boys = (45 + 25) – 1 = 69.
9. Option (2)
Clearly, Palak’s position from the right = [74 – (27 + 7)] + 1 = (74 – 34) + 1 = 40 + 1 = 41.
10. Option (1)
Clearly, Nitin’s rank from the last = (42 – 23) + 1 = 19 + 1 = 20th.
