Meaningful order of words:

5 x 15 + 7 - 20 ÷ 4 = 5 x 15 + 7 - 5 = 77
Correct Answer:
Explanation:
If both conclusion I and II follow.
Correct Answer: if only argument II is strong
Explanation:
I is weak because it seems to be at best a joke and at worst a whim . It is not acceptable to reason. Economists, even when in large numbers, are only a handful. So how much do you think you can gain by giving them some other employment? And if you think the devil lies in their theories- that two economists seldom agree-, let me tell you it's a healthy trend. Critics are very important in the upliftment of a society. II is strong because the more the awareness, the greater the activity. See how our economy has developed in recent years.

In row 1, P, Q, R, S and T are seated and all of them are facing south. In row 2, A, B, C, D and E are seated and all of them are facing north.

Correct Answer: Sohan
Explanation:
Suppose the age of Shyam = P years
According to question ,
Age of Ram = 2 × age of Shyam = 2P years
Age of Sohan = 4 × age of Shyam = 4P years
? Shyam > Mohan
So, Sohan (4P) > Ram (2P) > Shyam (P) > Mohan
? Sohan is the oldest.
