- Question
Read each part of the sentence to find out if there is any error in it. The error, if any, will be in one part of the sentence. The number of that part is the answer. As much as i admire him for his talent(1) / and endeavor to achieve success(2)/ I cannot forgive him for being so(3)/rude to the not so well to do ones(4)
Options- A. (1)
- B. (2)
- C. (3)
- D. (4)
- Correct Answer
- (1)
ExplanationThe error lies in part (1).
As the phrase 'as much as' needs to be replaced with 'much as I'. This is because we use 'as much as' for comparing two qualities or things. But here in the given sentence a contrast is given in the latter part of the sentence. So we need a conjunction like 'even though' 'although' etc...
'Much as I' also serves the same purpose.

Correct Answer: 5
Explanation:
Arithmatic mean = sum/members
=> (1x1 + 2x2 + 3x3 + 4x4 + 5x5 + 6x6 + 7x7) / (1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7)
=> 140/28 = 5
Correct Answer: 25
Explanation:
Let x be number of houses and y be colors.
on the basis of question
x = 4y+1
x = 5(y-1)
on solving these 2 equations x = 25
Correct Answer: -2
Explanation:
We know that in A.P series
18th term = a + 17d
29th term = a + 28d
But given
a + 17d = 29..........(i)
a + 28d = 18......... (ii)
Solving equation (i) and (ii), we get
d = -1
put d = -1 in any of the above equations and we get,
a = 46
Now, we know 49th term can be written as, a + 48d
putting the value of a and d in the above equation,
a + 48d = 46 + 48(-1)
= 46 - 48
= -2
Hence, the 49th term is -2.
