Kiran Tiwari answered
Understanding the Series
To determine the next number in the series 34, 29, 24, we need to identify the pattern in the sequence.
Identifying the Pattern
- Start with the first number: 34
- The second number is 29:
- 34 - 5 = 29 (subtracting 5)
- The third number is 24:
- 29 - 5 = 24 (subtracting 5 again)
Continuing the Pattern
Following the established pattern, we will continue to subtract 5 from the last number in the sequence.
- The next step:
- 24 - 5 = 19
Thus, the next number in the series is 19.
Verifying the Answer
Let’s summarize the calculations:
- 34 (first number)
- 29 (34 - 5)
- 24 (29 - 5)
- 19 (24 - 5)
Hence, the correct answer is indeed 19, which corresponds to option C.
Conclusion
The series follows a clear pattern of subtracting 5 from each preceding number. Therefore, the next number after 34, 29, and 24 is 19.

Shreya has 35 stamps, which is 15 more than the number of stamps Akhill has. How many stamps Akhil has?

    5
  • c)
    15
  • d)
    20
Correct answer is option 'D'. Can you explain this answer?

Pranav Singh answered
Number of stamps Shreya has = 35
Akhil has 15 less number of stamps than shreya has.
Therefore, number of stamps Akhil has = 35 - 15 = 20

Rahul is having a Roll No. in which ones place and tens place have the same value. What can be the value of his Roll No.?
  • a)
    23
  • b)
    33
  • c)
    34
  • d)
    43
Correct answer is option 'B'. Can you explain this answer?

Samridhi Basu answered
Explanation:

To find the possible values of Rahul's Roll No., we need to determine the numbers where the ones place and tens place have the same value.

Possible Values:

To find the possible values, we can consider each digit from 0 to 9 as the value for both the ones place and tens place. Let's go through each option given in the question:

a) 23: In this case, the ones place is 3 and the tens place is 2. Since they are not the same, this option is incorrect.

b) 33: In this case, both the ones place and tens place have the same value of 3. Therefore, this option is correct.

c) 34: In this case, the ones place is 4 and the tens place is 3. Since they are not the same, this option is incorrect.

d) 43: In this case, the ones place is 3 and the tens place is 4. Since they are not the same, this option is incorrect.

Therefore, the only possible value for Rahul's Roll No. is 33, which is option B.
