Practice Test 12: Reasoning Ability - Question 17

Find the value X if the sum of the resultant of two rows is 177?

Detailed Solution: Question 17

In row-1
Even number is followed by an odd number so = 26 * 5 = 130
Even number is followed by another even number so = 130+12= 142
In row-2
Odd number is followed by an even number so = 23 + 6 = 29
If sum of resultant of both row is 177, therefore resultant of 2nd row is 35
Odd number is followed by an even number so = 29 + 6 = 35
So value of X will be 6

Practice Test 12: Reasoning Ability - Question 18

Find d the multiplication of the resultant of first and second row.
