- Question
In the below word how many words are there in which R and W are at the end positions? RAINBOW
Options- A. 120
- B. 180
- C. 210
- D. 240
- Correct Answer
- 240
ExplanationWhen R and W are the first and last letters of all the words then we can arrange them in 5!ways. Similarly When W and R are the first and last letters of the words then the remaining letters can be arrange in 5! ways.
Thus the total number of permutations = 2 x 5! = 2 x 120 = 240

Correct Answer: 11
Explanation:
Taking p = 11
2p - 1 = 211 - 1
= 2047
Since 2047 is divisible by 23 it is not prime. Thus, required least positive prime number is 11.
Correct Answer: 72
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 47
Explanation:
So, the number 47 is wrong and must be replaced by 46.
Correct Answer: 0.045388
Explanation:
Multiplying 3.242 x 14=4.5388
Now divide 4.5388 by 100
So, 4.5388 ÷ 100= 0.045388
? Shift the decimal two places to the left as 100
Correct Answer: 173 m
Explanation:
Let us draw a figure from given question.
Let, AB = 100 m be the height of a tower, P is a point on the ground such that ∠APB = 30°
From right triangle ABP,
BP = 100 cot 30°
⇒ BP = 100 √3
⇒ BP = 100 X 1.73
⇒ BP = 173 meter
Correct Answer: 6 years
Explanation:
Father's age when Ayesha's brother was born = (38 + 4) years = 42 years.
∴ Required difference = (42 - 36) years = 6 years.
Correct Answer: 20%
Explanation:
Then, S.P. of 1 litre of mixture = Re. 1, Gain = 25%.
| C.P. of 1 litre mixture = Re. | ❨ | 100 | x 1 | ❩ | = | 4 |
| 125 | 5 |
By the rule of alligation, we have:
| C.P. of 1 litre of milk C.P. of 1 litre of water | |||||
| Re. 1 | Mean Price
|
0 | |||
|
|
||||
| ∴ Ratio of milk to water = | 4 | : | 1 | = 4 : 1. |
| 5 | 5 |
| Hence, percentage of water in the mixture = | ❨ | 1 | x 100 | ❩% | = 20%. |

Correct Answer: 16 km
Explanation:
Then, distance travelled on bicycle = (61 -x) km.
| So, | x | + | (61 -x) | = 9 |
| 4 | 9 |
⟹ 9x + 4(61 -x) = 9 x 36
⟹ 5x = 80
⟹ x = 16 km.
Correct Answer: 670
Explanation:
? = 3.2 x 8.1 + 3185 ÷ 4.95
= 25.92 + 643.43 = 669.35 = 670
Correct Answer: 3 %
Explanation:
Exp. = (.35 x .0015) / (.25 x .07)
= ( 35 x 15) / (25 x 7 x 100)
= (3/100) x 100 %
= 3%
