Quiz – 1

Option 4

Option 1 : 1

For solving these type of problems -

Notice that the sum of the seeding in every match will be equal to total players + 1. i.e. 1 + 32 = 33, 2 + 31 = 33.

Thus, for 128 player tournaments, it will be 128 + 1 = 129.

For, match 40 , opponent will be 129 -40 = 89

Option 3 : 20

Clearly, each term of the series is the sum of the preceding two terms.
Now 8 + 13 = 21  and  13 + 21 = 34.
So, the term 20 is wrong term

instead of 20 the number must be 21

Option 4 : 80

The sequence is (14)², (13)², (12)², (11)², (10)².
So, 80 is wrong and must be replaced by (9)²  i.e. 81

Option 2 : Sik

Explanation: 
In the second and third statements, the common code is ‘hee’ and the common word is ‘horses’. So, ‘hee’ means ‘horses’.

Thus, ‘sik’ means ‘large’ from second statement.

In first and third statements, the common code is ‘pee’ and common word is ‘are’. So, ‘pee’ means ‘are’.

Thus, ‘mit’ means ‘pigs’ from third statement.

Option 4 : Cannot be determined

Explanation: 
From the given information, it cannot be determined which of the remaining codes in first statement stands for ‘dogs’.

Answer: Option D
Solution:
Let the missing terms of the series be x1 and x2.
Thus, the sequence 20, 20, 19, 16, 17, 13, 14, 11, xv x2 is a combination of two series :
I. 20, 19, 17, 14, x1 and II. 20, 16, 13, 11, x2
The pattern in I is – 1, – 2, – 3,……So, missing term, x1 = 14 – 4 = 10.
The pattern in II is – 4, – 3, – 2,……So, missing term, x2 = 11 – 1 = 10.

The series can be arranged in ascending order as

26 , 48 , 99 , 182 , 245 , 297 , 378 , 542

The series can be arranged in descending order as

542 , 378 , 297 , 245 , 182 , 99 , 48 , 26

In all the option we can see first term is 542,there is a trend alternate descending and ascending terms are written

Pattern is descending ‘s first term then ascending ’s first term ,then second third fourth so on…

542 , 26 , 378 , 48 , 297 , 99 , 245 , 182

Answer: Option D
Solution:

The series can be arranged in ascending order as

348 , 326 , 279 , 236 , 158 , 28

The series can be arranged in descending order as

28 , 158 , 236 , 279 , 326 , 384

In all the option we can see first term is 542,there is a trend alternate descending and ascending terms are written

Pattern is descending ‘s first term then ascending ’s first term ,then second third fourth so on…

348 , 28 , 326 , 158 , 279 , 236
