QUESTION: 1

The number of ways in which three different rings can be worn in four fingers with at most one in each finger, are

Solution:

The total number of ways is same as the number of arrangements of 4 fingers, taken 3 at a time.
So, required number of ways = 4P3 
= 4!/(4-3)!
= 4!/1!
= 4! => 24

QUESTION: 2

A room has 8 doors. In how many ways, a man can enter in the room through one door and exit through a different door?

Solution:

The person has 8 options to enter the hall. For each of these 8 options, he has 7 options to exit the hall. Thus, he has 8 × 7 = 56 ways to enter and exit from different doors.

QUESTION: 3

The total number of ways of answering 5 objective questions, each question having four choices are

Solution:

There are five questions
Each question has 4 options
No. of possible ways of answering each question is four
No. of Possible ways for Q1 = 4
No. of Possible ways for Q2 = 4
No. of Possible ways for Q3 = 4
No. of Possible ways for Q4 = 4
No. of Possible ways for Q5 = 4
So, Total number of ways of answering 5 objective type questions, each question having 4 choices = 45
= 1024

QUESTION: 4

In how many ways, a party of 5 men and 5 women be seated at a circular table, so that no two women are adjacent?
Solution:

Lets first place the men (M). '*' here indicates the linker of round table
 
* M -M - M - M - M *
which is in (5-1)! ways
So we have to place the women in between the men which is on the 5 empty seats ( 4 -'s and 1 linker i.e * )
So 5 women can sit on 5 seats in (5)! ways or
1st seat in 5 ways
2nd seat 4
3rd seat 3
4th seat 2
5th seat 1
i.e 5*4*3*2*1 ways
So the answer is 5! * 4! = 2880

QUESTION: 5

The measure of an interior angle of a regular polygon is 140°. The number of sides and diagonals in this polygon are:
Solution:

Since the exterior angle 140 degrees, The sum of the interior angles = (2n - 4)* right angles. So 140n = (2n - 4)* right angles, or
140n = (2n - 4)*90, or
140n = 180n - 360o, or
40n = 360°, or
n = 9 sides.

QUESTION: 6

In how many ways can a cricket team of 11 players be chosen out from a squad of 14 players, if 5 particular players are always chosen?
Solution:

Total no of players = 14 out of which 5 are fixed.
So, 11-5 = 6
Remaining players = 14 - 6
= 9 players
9C6 = 9!/(3!*6!)
= 84 

QUESTION: 7

A team of 7 players is to be formed out of 5 under 19 players and 6 senior players. In how many ways, the team can be chosen when at least 4 senior players are included?
Solution:

No. of ways to select 4 senior and 3 U-19 players = 6C4 * 5C3 = 150
No. of ways to select 5 senior and 2 U-19 players = 6C5 * 5C2 = 60
No. of ways to select 6 senior and 1 U-19 players = 6C6 * 5C1 = 5 
Total no. of ways to select the team = 150 + 60 + 5 = 215

QUESTION: 8
