Here 37 N 10 L 65 P 13 M 16
= 37 × 10 + 65 ÷ 13 – 16
= 37 × 10 + 5 – 16 = 370 + 5 – 16
= 370 – 11 = 359
= 37 × 10 + 65 ÷ 13 – 16
= 37 × 10 + 5 – 16 = 370 + 5 – 16
= 370 – 11 = 359

The given series seems to be increasing with a pattern of adding consecutive odd numbers.
To find the missing term and complete the series, let's analyze the differences between consecutive terms:
17 - 10 = 7
26 - 17 = 9
37 - 26 = 11
50 - 37 = 13
We can observe that the differences between consecutive terms are increasing by 2 each time.
Using this pattern, we can find the difference for the next term:
13 + 2 = 15
To find the missing term, we add this difference to the last term of the given series:
50 + 15 = 65
Therefore, the missing term is 65 and the completed series is:
10, 17, 26, 37, 50, 65.

Shilpa Choudhury answered |
Taking Z = 2, Y = 3, …… N = 14,
B = 26, A = 27
∴ ZIP = (2 + 19 + 12) × 6 = 33 × 6 = 198
and VIP = (V + I + P) × 6 = (6 + 19 + 12) × 6
= 37 × 6 = 222
Hence ZAP = (Z + A + P) × 6
= (2 + 27 + 12) × 6
= 41 × 6 = 246
B = 26, A = 27
∴ ZIP = (2 + 19 + 12) × 6 = 33 × 6 = 198
and VIP = (V + I + P) × 6 = (6 + 19 + 12) × 6
= 37 × 6 = 222
Hence ZAP = (Z + A + P) × 6
= (2 + 27 + 12) × 6
= 41 × 6 = 246

Krish Mehra answered |
**Relation between Smoke and Pollution:**
The given pair 'Smoke : Pollution' suggests a cause and effect relationship. Smoke is the cause and pollution is the effect. Smoke is a type of air pollutant that is generated through the combustion of materials. Therefore, the relation between smoke and pollution is that smoke causes pollution.
**Applying the same relation to War:**
Now, we need to find a word from the given options that has a similar cause and effect relationship with war. War is a conflict or a struggle between two or more groups or countries. It involves the use of weapons and violence, resulting in destruction and loss of life. Based on this understanding, we can deduce that war causes destruction.
**Options:**
a) Treaty: A treaty is an agreement or a contract made between two or more parties. It is usually signed to establish peace, resolve conflicts, or regulate specific issues. While a treaty can be a result or an outcome of a war, it is not directly related to war itself.
b) Victory: Victory refers to the act of winning or achieving success in a battle, competition, or conflict. While victory can be the desired outcome of a war for one party, it does not represent the cause and effect relationship between war and another word.
c) Peace: Peace is the state of harmony or tranquility, characterized by the absence of war or conflict. While peace is the opposite of war, it does not represent the cause and effect relationship between war and another word.
d) Destruction: Destruction refers to the act of causing severe damage or complete ruin. It is the result or the effect of war as war involves the use of weapons and violence, leading to destruction of infrastructure, loss of lives, and devastation.
**Conclusion:**
Based on the cause and effect relationship established in the given pair 'Smoke : Pollution', the word that has a similar relationship with war is 'Destruction'. War causes destruction, just as smoke causes pollution. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'D' - Destruction.

Simran Yadav answered |
**Explanation:**
To determine the odd one out among the given words, we need to analyze the similarities and differences between them.
Distress, Calm, Dull, and Gloomy are all words that describe different emotional states or feelings. However, the odd one out among them is "Distress" because it represents a negative or unpleasant emotional state, while the other three words - Calm, Dull, and Gloomy - represent more neutral or negative emotional states.
- Calm: This word refers to a state of tranquility or peacefulness. It is the opposite of being agitated or anxious.
- Dull: This word can refer to a lack of interest or excitement. It is often used to describe something boring or uninteresting.
- Gloomy: This word describes a state of darkness, sadness, or pessimism. It is often associated with a low mood or negative outlook.
On the other hand, "Distress" represents a state of extreme anxiety, pain, or suffering. It is a more intense and negative emotional state compared to the other words.
Therefore, the odd one out among the given words is "Distress" because it represents a more intense and negative emotional state compared to the other three words - Calm, Dull, and Gloomy - which represent more neutral or negative emotional states.

Pranati Patel answered |
In the given number series, we can observe that each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by a certain number. Let's analyze the pattern:
2 * 3 = 6
6 * 4 = 24
24 * 4 = 96
96 * 3 = 288
288 * 2 = 576
576 * 1 = 576
From this pattern, we can see that the multiplication factor alternates between 3 and 4. However, when we reach the term 285, the pattern is not followed.
Therefore, the wrong term in the number series is 285.
2 * 3 = 6
6 * 4 = 24
24 * 4 = 96
96 * 3 = 288
288 * 2 = 576
576 * 1 = 576
From this pattern, we can see that the multiplication factor alternates between 3 and 4. However, when we reach the term 285, the pattern is not followed.
Therefore, the wrong term in the number series is 285.

To convert the paise to rupees, we divide by 100, since there are 100 paise in 1 rupee.
6480 paise / 100 = 64.80 rupees
Therefore, the total value of the 324 coins of 20 paise is 64.80 rupees.
324 coins * 20 paise = 6480 paise
To convert the paise to rupees, we divide by 100, since there are 100 paise in 1 rupee.
6480 paise / 100 = 64.80 rupees
Therefore, the total value of the 324 coins of 20 paise is 64.80 rupees.

Ruffian, Paragon, Pirate, Gangster
The odd one out in this group of words is Paragon.
Explanation:
To identify the odd one out, we need to analyze the similarities and differences among the given words.
Ruffian: A ruffian refers to a violent or brutal person who is often involved in criminal activities.
Paragon: A paragon refers to a person or thing that is regarded as a perfect example of a particular quality.
Pirate: A pirate is someone who commits acts of robbery or violence at sea.
Gangster: A gangster is a member of a criminal gang, often involved in organized crime.
From the given words, three words - ruffian, pirate, and gangster - are similar in the sense that they are all associated with criminal activities or violence. They all have negative connotations and are often used to describe individuals involved in illegal or harmful actions.
On the other hand, the word paragon stands out as it has a positive connotation. It refers to someone or something that is considered as a perfect example or model of a particular quality. Paragon is not associated with criminal or violent behavior like the other three words.
Hence, the odd one out in this group is Paragon as it is the only word that does not have negative associations related to criminal activities or violence.

**Relation between Wax : Wane**
The word pair "Wax : Wane" shows a relation of opposite or contrasting terms.
- "Wax" refers to the process of increasing or growing, such as the waxing moon which becomes larger and brighter. It represents growth or increase.
- "Wane" refers to the process of decreasing or shrinking, such as the waning moon which becomes smaller and less bright. It represents decline or decrease.
Therefore, the relation between "Wax" and "Wane" is that they are antonyms, representing opposite phases or states.
**Finding the Word with Similar Relation**
Now, we need to find a word that has a similar relation to the given word "Zenith".
- "Zenith" refers to the highest point or the peak of something. It represents the pinnacle or the highest level.
To find a word that has a similar relation to "Zenith", we need to look for a word that represents the opposite or the lowest point.
**Analyzing the Answer Options**
a) Nadir: Nadir refers to the lowest point or the bottom. It is the opposite of zenith and represents a similar relation as "Wax : Wane". Therefore, option A is the correct answer.
b) Fall: While "fall" represents a decrease or decline, it does not necessarily represent the opposite or lowest point. It does not have a similar relation as "Wax : Wane".
c) Bottom: "Bottom" represents the lowest point or the base, similar to "Nadir". It has a similar relation as "Wax : Wane". However, "Nadir" is a more precise term to describe the lowest point.
d) Depth: "Depth" refers to the distance from the top or surface to the bottom. While it represents a measurement, it does not have a clear opposite or similar relation as "Wax : Wane".
Therefore, option A) Nadir is the best alternative as it represents the opposite or lowest point, similar to the relation between "Wax : Wane".

**Relation between Wine and Cellar:**
In this analogy, the word "Wine" is related to the word "Cellar" in the sense that a cellar is a storage place specifically designed to keep wine. Wine is typically stored in a cellar because it requires certain conditions such as a cool and dark environment to mature and maintain its quality.
**Finding the word related to Weapons:**
Now, we need to find a word from the given alternatives that has a similar relationship with the word "Weapons" as "Wine" has with "Cellar".
- a) Godown: A godown is a warehouse or storage place for general goods. It does not specifically relate to weapons, so it is not the correct answer.
- b) Armoury: An armoury is a place where weapons and military equipment are stored. This is a strong contender as it has a similar relationship to "Weapons" as "Cellar" has to "Wine". However, it is important to consider other options as well.
- c) Dungeon: A dungeon is a dark, underground prison or cell. It does not have a direct relationship with weapons, so it is not the correct answer.
- d) Arsenal: An arsenal is a place where weapons and military equipment are stored. This is the correct answer as it has the same relationship with "Weapons" as "Cellar" has with "Wine". Both "Cellar" and "Arsenal" are specialized storage places for specific items (wine and weapons, respectively).
Therefore, the correct answer is option **d) Arsenal**.

Aravind Patel answered |
To solve this problem, let's break it down step by step.
Step 1: Calculate the total number of students who were present.
We are given that sweets were supposed to be equally distributed among 200 students. However, 50 students were absent. Therefore, the number of students present is 200 - 50 = 150.
Step 2: Determine the number of extra sweets each student receives.
Since the sweets were equally distributed among the students, we can calculate the number of extra sweets received by each student by dividing the total number of extra sweets by the number of students present. We are given that each student receives 4 extra sweets, so the total number of extra sweets is 150 * 4 = 600.
Step 3: Calculate the total number of sweets available for distribution.
To find the total number of sweets available for distribution, we need to add the number of extra sweets to the original number of sweets. Since each student received 4 extra sweets and there are 150 students, the original number of sweets is 150 * 4 = 600.
Step 4: Add the original number of sweets to the number of extra sweets.
The total number of sweets available for distribution is the sum of the original number of sweets and the number of extra sweets. Therefore, the total number of sweets available is 600 + 600 = 1200.
So, the correct answer is option C) 2400.
Step 1: Calculate the total number of students who were present.
We are given that sweets were supposed to be equally distributed among 200 students. However, 50 students were absent. Therefore, the number of students present is 200 - 50 = 150.
Step 2: Determine the number of extra sweets each student receives.
Since the sweets were equally distributed among the students, we can calculate the number of extra sweets received by each student by dividing the total number of extra sweets by the number of students present. We are given that each student receives 4 extra sweets, so the total number of extra sweets is 150 * 4 = 600.
Step 3: Calculate the total number of sweets available for distribution.
To find the total number of sweets available for distribution, we need to add the number of extra sweets to the original number of sweets. Since each student received 4 extra sweets and there are 150 students, the original number of sweets is 150 * 4 = 600.
Step 4: Add the original number of sweets to the number of extra sweets.
The total number of sweets available for distribution is the sum of the original number of sweets and the number of extra sweets. Therefore, the total number of sweets available is 600 + 600 = 1200.
So, the correct answer is option C) 2400.

Series: 1, 5, 7, 14, 18, 20, 40, 44, 46, ?
To find the missing term in the given series, we need to analyze the pattern and identify the rule that governs the sequence. Let's break down the series and analyze it step by step.
1. Initial observation: Looking at the series, we can see that it does not follow a simple arithmetic or geometric progression. Therefore, we need to look for a different pattern.
2. Alternate increase: If we observe the series closely, we can notice that it alternates between increasing by 4 and 2. For example, the difference between the first and second terms is 4 (5 - 1 = 4), the difference between the second and third terms is 2 (7 - 5 = 2), and so on.
3. Grouping: Another pattern that can be observed is that the terms can be grouped into pairs. The first pair (1, 5) increases by 4, the second pair (7, 14) increases by 7, the third pair (18, 20) increases by 2, and the fourth pair (40, 44) increases by 4.
4. Alternate grouping: If we further analyze the pairs, we can see that they alternate between increasing and decreasing differences. The first pair increases by 4, the second pair increases by 7, the third pair decreases by 2, and the fourth pair increases by 4.
5. Pattern identification: Based on the above observations, we can conclude that the series follows the pattern of alternating increases and decreases in the differences between the terms.
6. Missing term: Now, let's find the missing term in the series. The last pair (44, 46) increases by 4, so the missing term should have a difference of 7 from the last term. Adding 7 to 46, we get 53.
7. Conclusion: Therefore, the missing term in the series is 53.
The correct answer is Option D) 53.

Mainak Yadav answered |
Solution:
Given that ON = 29 and RAT = 39. We need to find the code for COW.
Let's analyze the given codes for ON and RAT to find the pattern:
ON = 29
- The code consists of two letters: O and N.
- The code for O is the tens digit (2) and the code for N is the ones digit (9).
RAT = 39
- The code consists of three letters: R, A, and T.
- The code for R is the tens digit (3), the code for A is the ones digit (9), and the code for T is the hundreds digit (3).
From the above analysis, we can conclude that the code for each letter in a word is determined by its position in the word. The first letter's code is the hundreds digit, the second letter's code is the tens digit, and the last letter's code is the ones digit.
Now, let's apply this pattern to find the code for COW:
COW
- The code for C is the hundreds digit.
- The code for O is the tens digit.
- The code for W is the ones digit.
Using this pattern, we can determine the code for COW:
C = 4 (hundreds digit)
O = 1 (tens digit)
W = 6 (ones digit)
Therefore, the code for COW is 416.
Among the given options, the code 416 is not present. However, we can see that option (c) 41 is a part of the code for COW. Hence, the correct answer is option (c) 41.

Meenal Menon answered |
**Relation between Election and Manifesto**
In the given pair "Election : Manifesto," the word "Manifesto" is directly related to the word "Election" as it represents a written statement of the policies, goals, and intentions of a political party or candidate during an election campaign. A manifesto is a crucial document that outlines the party's or candidate's promises and plans if they are elected.
**Finding the word with a similar relation to Meeting**
To find a word with a similar relation to "Meeting," we need to identify a word that represents a written document or statement that is associated with a meeting.
**Possible Options**
a) Report: A report is a written or spoken account of something. While reports can be generated as a result of a meeting, they are not inherently associated with the concept of a meeting itself. Therefore, option (a) is not the correct answer.
b) Preface: A preface is an introduction or preliminary statement that precedes a book or other written work. While a preface can be found in a book that is discussed during a meeting, it does not directly relate to the concept of a meeting itself. So, option (b) is not the correct answer.

**Analogy Explanation:**
In this analogy, we are given the relationship between two pairs of words - Anatomy and Zoology, and Paediatrics and an unknown word. We need to determine the word that has a similar relationship to Paediatrics as Anatomy has to Zoology.
**Anatomy : Zoology**
The word "Anatomy" is a branch of biology that deals with the structure of organisms. It specifically focuses on the physical structure, internal organs, and systems of living organisms. "Zoology" is also a branch of biology, but it focuses on the study of animals. Therefore, the relationship between Anatomy and Zoology is that Anatomy is a specific branch of biology, and Zoology is a specific branch of biology that focuses on animals.
**Paediatrics : ?**
Now, let's analyze the word "Paediatrics" and find a word that has a similar relationship to it as Anatomy has to Zoology.
"Paediatrics" is a branch of medicine that deals with the medical care of infants, children, and adolescents. It specifically focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of diseases and disorders in pediatric patients. Therefore, the relationship between Paediatrics and the unknown word should be that Paediatrics is a specific branch of medicine, and the unknown word is a specific branch of medicine related to a different field.
**Finding the Correct Answer:**
a) Medicine - This option is the correct answer. Medicine is a broad field that encompasses various branches, including Paediatrics, which focuses on the medical care of children. The relationship between Paediatrics and Medicine is similar to the relationship between Anatomy and Zoology, where both pairs involve a specific branch within a broader field.
b) Chemistry - This option does not have a similar relationship to Paediatrics as Anatomy has to Zoology. Chemistry is a different field of study that focuses on the composition, structure, properties, and reactions of matter.
c) Mechanics - This option is unrelated to the field of medicine. Mechanics is a branch of physics that deals with the study of motion, forces, and energy.
d) Palaeontology - This option is also unrelated to the field of medicine. Palaeontology is a branch of science that deals with the study of fossils and the history of life on Earth.
Therefore, the correct answer is option a) Medicine.
In this analogy, we are given the relationship between two pairs of words - Anatomy and Zoology, and Paediatrics and an unknown word. We need to determine the word that has a similar relationship to Paediatrics as Anatomy has to Zoology.

Deepak Patel answered |
The given series is 1, 1, 4, 8, 9, 27, 16, and we need to find the missing term and complete the series.
To solve this series, we need to identify the pattern or rule that governs the sequence of numbers. Let's analyze the given series step by step:
1. The first two terms, 1 and 1, are the same. This could indicate that the series is alternating between two different numbers.
2. The next term, 4, can be obtained by multiplying the first term 1 by 2^2 (2 raised to the power of 2).
3. The fourth term, 8, can be obtained by multiplying the second term 1 by 2^3 (2 raised to the power of 3).
4. The fifth term, 9, can be obtained by multiplying the third term 4 by (2+1) (2 plus 1).
5. The sixth term, 27, can be obtained by multiplying the fourth term 8 by 3.
6. The seventh term, 16, can be obtained by multiplying the fifth term 9 by (2-1) (2 minus 1).
Based on the pattern observed, we can deduce that the series alternates between multiplying by powers of 2 and multiplying by consecutive numbers, starting from 2.
Therefore, to find the missing term, we need to continue the pattern. The next term can be obtained by multiplying the seventh term 16 by (2^4) (2 raised to the power of 4) since it is the next power of 2 in the pattern.
Calculating this, we get:
16 * (2^4) = 16 * 16 = 256
Hence, the missing term in the series is 256. Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A' 256.

To find the word that is related to Archimedes in the same way as Darwin is related to evolution, we need to identify a concept or idea that is associated with Archimedes.
**Analysis of Options:**
a) Lubrication: This concept is not directly related to Archimedes. Lubrication is the process of reducing friction between two surfaces by applying a substance such as oil or grease.
b) Friction: This concept is not directly related to Archimedes. Friction is the force that opposes the motion of an object when it comes into contact with another object or surface.
c) Liquids: This concept is not directly related to Archimedes. Liquids are a state of matter, and Archimedes is not specifically associated with the study of liquids.
d) Buoyancy: This concept is directly related to Archimedes. Archimedes is known for his principle of buoyancy, which states that an object immersed in a fluid experiences an upward force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.
**Conclusion:**
The correct answer is option d) Buoyancy, as it represents a concept associated with Archimedes in the same way that evolution is associated with Darwin.

Explanation:
Given information:
Shanti is at 27th position from the top in a class of 43 students.
Finding Shanti's position from the other side:
To find Shanti's position from the other side, we can subtract her position from the total number of students in the class and then add 1 (since her position from the other side will be counted from 1).
So, Shanti's position from the other side = (Total number of students in the class - Shanti's position) + 1
= (43 - 27) + 1
= 16 + 1
= 17
Therefore, Shanti's rank from the other side is 17th.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C) 17th.

So, Shanti's position from the other side = (Total number of students in the class - Shanti's position) + 1
= (43 - 27) + 1
= 16 + 1
= 17
Therefore, Shanti's rank from the other side is 17th.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C) 17th.

S, Ram will be twice as old as Mohan. Find the present age of Lokesh, given that Lokesh is currently 20 years old.
Let's first find the present age of Ram and Mohan.
Given that Ram is three times as old as Mohan, we can represent their ages as:
Ram = 3Mohan ...(1)
Next, let's find their ages four years ago.
Ram's age four years ago = 3Mohan - 4
Lokesh's age four years ago = 20 - 4 = 16
Given that Lokesh was twice as old as Ram four years ago, we can represent their ages as:
16 = 2(3Mohan - 4)
16 = 6Mohan - 8
6Mohan = 16 + 8
6Mohan = 24
Mohan = 24/6
Mohan = 4
Plugging Mohan's age back into equation (1), we can find Ram's age:
Ram = 3 * 4
Ram = 12
In four years, Ram will be 12 + 4 = 16 years old, and Mohan will be 4 + 4 = 8 years old.
Given that Ram will be twice as old as Mohan in four years, we can write the equation:
16 = 2 * 8
Since the equation is true, the values of Ram and Mohan are correct.
Now, let's find Lokesh's present age.
Since Lokesh was twice as old as Ram four years ago, and Ram was 12 years old four years ago, we can represent Lokesh's age as:
Lokesh = 2 * (12 + 4)
Lokesh = 2 * 16
Lokesh = 32
Therefore, Lokesh's present age is 32 years old.
Let's first find the present age of Ram and Mohan.
Given that Ram is three times as old as Mohan, we can represent their ages as:
Ram = 3Mohan ...(1)
Next, let's find their ages four years ago.
Ram's age four years ago = 3Mohan - 4
Lokesh's age four years ago = 20 - 4 = 16
Given that Lokesh was twice as old as Ram four years ago, we can represent their ages as:
16 = 2(3Mohan - 4)
16 = 6Mohan - 8
6Mohan = 16 + 8
6Mohan = 24
Mohan = 24/6
Mohan = 4
Plugging Mohan's age back into equation (1), we can find Ram's age:
Ram = 3 * 4
Ram = 12
In four years, Ram will be 12 + 4 = 16 years old, and Mohan will be 4 + 4 = 8 years old.
Given that Ram will be twice as old as Mohan in four years, we can write the equation:
16 = 2 * 8
Since the equation is true, the values of Ram and Mohan are correct.
Now, let's find Lokesh's present age.
Since Lokesh was twice as old as Ram four years ago, and Ram was 12 years old four years ago, we can represent Lokesh's age as:
Lokesh = 2 * (12 + 4)
Lokesh = 2 * 16
Lokesh = 32
Therefore, Lokesh's present age is 32 years old.

Aditya Shah answered |
Let Rajesh solves x sums correctly. Right sums = x, wrong sums = 2x
∴ x + 2x = 84
⇒ 3x = 84
⇒ x = 28
∴ x + 2x = 84
⇒ 3x = 84
⇒ x = 28

To find the code for MAT, we need to analyze the given codes for AT and CAT. Let's break down the given codes and look for any patterns:
AT is coded as 401.
CAT is coded as 410.
From these codes, we can observe the following patterns:
1. The first digit of the code represents the number of letters in the word.
2. The second digit represents the position of the first letter in the word.
3. The third digit represents the position of the second letter in the word.
Using these patterns, we can conclude that:
- The word "AT" has 2 letters, and the positions of the letters are 1 and 2. Therefore, the code for AT is 401.
- The word "CAT" has 3 letters, and the positions of the letters are 1, 2, and 3. Therefore, the code for CAT is 410.
Now, let's apply the same patterns to the word "MAT":
- The word "MAT" has 3 letters, and the positions of the letters are 1, 2, and 3. Therefore, the code for MAT should have the first digit as 3.
- The first letter "M" is in the position 1, the second letter "A" is in the position 2, and the third letter "T" is in the position 3. Therefore, the code for MAT should have the second digit as 1 and the third digit as 2.
Combining these digits, we get the code for MAT as 312. However, none of the given options match this code. Therefore, we need to re-evaluate our analysis.
Upon closer observation, we can notice that the positions of the letters are being represented in reverse order. So, let's correct our analysis:
- The word "MAT" has 3 letters, and the positions of the letters in reverse order are 3, 2, and 1. Therefore, the code for MAT should have the first digit as 3.
- The first letter "M" is in the position 3, the second letter "A" is in the position 2, and the third letter "T" is in the position 1. Therefore, the code for MAT should have the second digit as 3 and the third digit as 1.
Combining these digits, we get the code for MAT as 331. None of the given options match this code.
Hence, there seems to be an error or inconsistency in the given codes or question. The correct code for MAT cannot be determined based on the given information.
