Naresh ranks 5th in a class, Vikas is 8th from the last. If Raju is 6th after Naresh and Just in the middle of Naresh and Vikas. How many students are there in the class?
  • a)
    23  
  • b)
    24
  • c)
    25
  • d)
    26
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Given information:
- Naresh ranks 5th in the class.
- Vikas is 8th from the last.
- Raju is 6th after Naresh.
- Raju is just in the middle of Naresh and Vikas.

To find:
The number of students in the class.

Solution:
Let's analyze the given information step by step.

Step 1:
Naresh ranks 5th in the class.
- This means that there are 4 students ranked higher than Naresh.

Step 2:
Vikas is 8th from the last.
- This means that there are 7 students ranked lower than Vikas.

Step 3:
Raju is 6th after Naresh.
- This means that there are 5 students ranked between Naresh and Raju.

Step 4:
Raju is just in the middle of Naresh and Vikas.
- This means that the number of students ranked between Naresh and Vikas is equal on both sides of Raju.

Step 5:
To find the total number of students in the class, we need to add the number of students ranked higher than Naresh, the number of students ranked lower than Vikas, and the number of students ranked between Naresh and Vikas.

Number of students ranked higher than Naresh = 4
Number of students ranked lower than Vikas = 7
Number of students ranked between Naresh and Vikas = 5

Total number of students = Number of students ranked higher than Naresh + Number of students ranked lower than Vikas + Number of students ranked between Naresh and Vikas
Total number of students = 4 + 7 + 5
Total number of students = 16

Answer:
There are 16 students in the class.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B) 24.

​​Arrange the given words in the alphabetical order and choose the one that comes last. 
  • a)
    Evolution
  • b)
    Extra  
  • c)
    Extreme
  • d)
    Extraction 
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Ashwin Chauhan answered
- Evolution
- Extra
- Extreme
- Extraction

To determine which word comes last in alphabetical order, we need to compare the first letters of each word.

1. Evolution starts with the letter "E".
2. Extra also starts with the letter "E".
3. Extreme starts with the letter "E".
4. Extraction starts with the letter "E".

Since all four words start with the letter "E", we need to move on to the second letter to determine the order.

1. Evolution has a second letter "v".
2. Extra has a second letter "x".
3. Extreme has a second letter "x".
4. Extraction has a second letter "x".

Now, we compare the second letters "v", "x", "x", and "x". Since "v" comes before "x" in the alphabet, Evolution comes before Extra, Extreme, and Extraction.

Next, we move on to the third letter to determine the order.

1. Extra has a third letter "t".
2. Extreme has a third letter "t".
3. Extraction has a third letter "t".

Since all three words have the same third letter "t", we move on to the fourth letter.

1. Extra has a fourth letter "r".
2. Extreme has a fourth letter "r".
3. Extraction has a fourth letter "a".

Since "a" comes before "r" in the alphabet, Extraction comes last in the alphabetical order.

Therefore, the word that comes last in alphabetical order is Extraction.

    Lady finger 
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Pritam Kumar answered
Odd One Out: Lady finger

Explanation:

Similarities among the options:
- All the options are vegetables commonly used in cooking.
- Cabbage, cauliflower, radish, and lady finger are all edible plants.

Differences among the options:
1. Shape and appearance:
- Cabbage: It is a round, leafy vegetable with thick layers of leaves.
- Cauliflower: It is a flower vegetable with a white head (known as curd) consisting of compacted flower buds.
- Radish: It is a root vegetable with a bulbous shape and a sharp, peppery taste.
- Lady finger: It is a long, slender vegetable with a tapered shape and a ridged surface.

2. Plant characteristics and cultivation:
- Cabbage: It belongs to the Brassica family and grows as a compact head of leaves on a short stalk.
- Cauliflower: It is a variety of cabbage that develops a dense head of undeveloped flower buds.
- Radish: It is a root vegetable that belongs to the Brassicaceae family and is grown for its swollen taproot.
- Lady finger: It is a tropical crop that belongs to the mallow family and is grown for its long, slender, green pods.

3. Nutritional value and taste:
- Cabbage: It is a good source of vitamins C and K, dietary fiber, and antioxidants. It has a mild, slightly sweet taste.
- Cauliflower: It is rich in vitamins C and K, dietary fiber, and antioxidants. It has a mild, slightly nutty taste.
- Radish: It is low in calories and high in vitamin C, dietary fiber, and potassium. It has a crunchy texture and a spicy, peppery taste.
- Lady finger: It is a good source of vitamins A and C, dietary fiber, and minerals. It has a mild taste and a slightly slimy texture when cooked.

Conclusion:
Lady finger is the odd one out in this group of vegetables because it has a distinct shape, belongs to a different plant family, and has different nutritional characteristics compared to cabbage, cauliflower, and radish.

Kalyan Pillai answered
Relationship between Akash and the boy in the blue shirt:
The statement "That boy in the blue shirt is younger of the two brothers of the daughter of my father's wife" can be a bit confusing at first, but breaking it down step by step helps clarify the relationship between Akash and the boy in the blue shirt.

Step 1: Identify the relationships:
- Akash's father's wife: Akash's mother
- Daughter of Akash's mother: Akash's sister
- Two brothers of Akash's sister: Akash's nephews
- Boy in the blue shirt: Younger of the two brothers of Akash's sister

Step 2: Putting it all together:
- The boy in the blue shirt is one of Akash's sister's sons.
- Since the boy in the blue shirt is one of Akash's sister's sons, that makes him Akash's nephew.
Therefore, the boy in the blue shirt is related to Akash as his nephew.

If GO = 32, SHE = 49, then SOME will be equal to

Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Anirudh Kumar answered
In the given code, Z = 1, Y = 2, X = 3, ……. C = 24, B = 25, Z = 26. 
So, GO = 20 + 12 = 32 and SHE = 8 + 19 + 22 = 49. 
Similarly, SOME = S + O + M + E = 8 + 12 + 14 + 22 = 56.

  • d)
    NBXSSE
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Explanation:
To find the code for the word "ANSWER" using the given code, we need to understand the pattern followed in the given code for the word "MOTHER".

Pattern in the given code:
- Each letter in the word "MOTHER" is replaced by the letter that comes 1 position ahead of it in the English alphabet.
- For example, 'M' is replaced by 'N', 'O' is replaced by 'P', 'T' is replaced by 'U', 'H' is replaced by 'I', 'E' is replaced by 'F', and 'R' is replaced by 'S'.

Applying the pattern to the word "ANSWER":
- The first letter 'A' in the word "ANSWER" is replaced by the letter that comes 1 position ahead of it in the English alphabet, which is 'B'.
- The second letter 'N' in the word "ANSWER" is replaced by the letter that comes 1 position ahead of it in the English alphabet, which is 'O'.
- The third letter 'S' in the word "ANSWER" is replaced by the letter that comes 1 position ahead of it in the English alphabet, which is 'T'.
- The fourth letter 'W' in the word "ANSWER" is replaced by the letter that comes 1 position ahead of it in the English alphabet, which is 'X'.
- The fifth letter 'E' in the word "ANSWER" is replaced by the letter that comes 1 position ahead of it in the English alphabet, which is 'F'.
- The sixth letter 'R' in the word "ANSWER" is replaced by the letter that comes 1 position ahead of it in the English alphabet, which is 'S'.

Therefore, the code for the word "ANSWER" using the given code is "NBWTRF".

Conclusion:
The correct answer is option 'C' - "NBWTRF".

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Choose the odd one out from the following.
  • a)
    Nail
  • b)
    Feather  
  • c)
    Fir
  • d)
    Trunk 
Correct answer is option 'C'. Can you explain this answer?

Priya Pillai answered
The odd one out from the given options is option 'C' - Fir.

Explanation:
Nail, Feather, and Trunk all have a common characteristic that distinguishes them from Fir. Let's analyze each option in detail to understand why Fir is the odd one out.

1. Nail:
- A nail is a small, thin, pointed metal object used to fasten objects together.
- Nails are commonly used in construction, carpentry, and other similar activities.
- Nails are typically made of steel or other metals and have a sharp point at one end for easy insertion.

2. Feather:
- A feather is a lightweight, flat structure that covers the skin of birds and aids in flight.
- Feathers are unique to birds and are essential for their ability to fly.
- Feathers come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, and they play a crucial role in insulation, aerodynamics, and courtship displays.

3. Fir:
- Fir is a type of evergreen tree belonging to the family Pinaceae.
- Fir trees have needle-like leaves, which are usually soft and flat.
- They are known for their conical shape and are commonly used as Christmas trees.
- Fir wood is also used in construction, furniture making, and other applications.

4. Trunk:
- The trunk is the main stem of a tree, which provides support and serves as a conduit for water, nutrients, and sugars.
- Trunks are typically thick, woody, and upright.
- They branch out into smaller branches and foliage, which collectively make up the crown of a tree.

Why is Fir the odd one out?
Fir is the odd one out because it does not share the common characteristic of being man-made or artificial. Nails, feathers, and trunks are all natural objects found in the environment and have specific purposes or functions. Fir, on the other hand, is a type of tree and represents a natural object rather than a human-made item.

Conclusion:
Based on the analysis, the odd one out from the given options is Fir because it does not share the common characteristic of being man-made or artificial, unlike the other options.

Q. Yard is to inch as quart is to
  • a)
    Gallon
  • b)
    Ounce
  • c)
    Milk
  • d)
    Liquid
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Pragati Khanna answered
Yard is to Inch as Quart is to Ounce.

Because Yard and Inch are units of measurement Where Yard is larger than Inch i.e, 1 Yard = 36 Inches.

So, here Quart and Ounce are also units of measurement where Quart is larger than Ounce i.e, 1 Quart = 32 Ounces.

Gallon is not correct because Gallon is larger than Quart and Milk and Liquid are not units of measurement.

So, Ounce is correct.
