Indian Army Group C Mock Test - 1 - Question 1

Select the number which can be placed at the sign of the question mark (?) from the given alternatives.

Detailed Solution for Indian Army Group C Mock Test - 1 - Question 1

The logic followed is:

middle number = sum of the bottom number - top number

In fig 1:

10 = (7 + 9) - 6

10 = 16 - 6

10 = 10

In fig 2:

10 = (5 + 8) - 3

10 = 13 - 3

10 = 10

Similarly,

? = (9 + 6) - 4

? = 15 - 4

? = 11 

Hence, the correct answer is "11".

Indian Army Group C Mock Test - 1 - Question 2

Find the next term in the given series.

Indian Army Group C Mock Test - 1 - Question 3

Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number.

25 : 650 :: 21 : ?

Detailed Solution for Indian Army Group C Mock Test - 1 - Question 3

The Logic is:

First Number+ First Number = Second Number

25 : 650 → 25 : 252 + 25 = 625 + 25 = 650

Similarly,

21 : ? → 21 : 21+ 21 = 462

⇒ ? = 441 + 21

⇒ ? = 462

Hence, '462' is the correct answer.

Indian Army Group C Mock Test - 1 - Question 18

How many digits will be there to the right of the decimal point in the product of 95.75 and .02554?

Detailed Solution for Indian Army Group C Mock Test - 1 - Question 18

Step 1: Count Decimal Places in Each Number

  • 95.75 has 2 decimal places

  • 0.02554 has 5 decimal places

Step 2: Add the Decimal Places

When multiplying two decimals, the total number of decimal places in the product should be the sum of the decimal places in the two numbers:

2 (from 95.75) + 5 (from 0.02554) = 7 decimal places

Step 3: Check by Multiplying

Now let's multiply:

95.75 × 0.02554 = 2.445455

So the actual product has 6 digits after the decimal point — not 7.

Why the Difference?

Even though the rule says there should be 7 decimal places, trailing zeros are often dropped.
If the answer were 2.4454550, it would have 7 digits after the decimal, but since the zero is not significant, it's not written.

So the actual product is 2.445455, which has 6 digits after the decimal point.

Conclusion:

  • Rule-based answer = 7 decimal places

  • Actual product = 6 decimal places

Answer is: c) 6
