2. Fill in the blank spaces in the series with appropriate choices:

13, 0

84.21%

9, 11

9, 11

2.43%

Solution: Option C

The pattern in the series is as follows.

The difference between two consecutive numbers is getting increased by 2 starting from 3 as we move from left to right.
48
48 – 45 = 3
45 – 40 = 5
40 – 33 = 7
33 – 24 = 9
Hence, the next difference would be 9 + 2 = 11
So, next term to 24 = 24 – 11 = 13
Now, the difference would be 11 + 2 = 13
So, next term to 13 = 13 – 13 = 0
Hence, next numbers are 13, 0.

8. Find the odd among the following.

a - 1011

b - 1101

c - 1111

d - 10001

e - 111

A

A

4.21%

B

B

4.74%

C

C

31.58%

D

D

59.47%

Solution − These numbers follow the binary coding. Let’s convert them into decimal.

1011 = 1 × 23 + 0 × 22 + 1 × 21 + 1 × 20

= 8 + 0 + 2 + 1

= 11

1101 = 1 × 23 + 1 × 22 + 0 × 21 + 1 × 20

= 8 + 4 + 0 + 1

= 13

1111 = 1 × 23 + 1 × 22 + 1 × 21 + 1 × 20

= 8 + 4 + 2 + 1

= 15

10001 = 1 × 24 + 0 × 23 + 0 × 22 + 0 × 21 + 1 × 20

= 16 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 1

= 17

111 = 1 × 22 + 1 × 21 + 1 × 20

= 4 + 2 + 1

= 7

Here, choice (d) will be the answer because 15 is not a prime number but all others are prime numbers.

Answer: A

Explanation:

To find the number of tiny cubes, first, we have to find x. Here x = (42/6) = 7. So number of tiny cubes M = 7 × 7 × 7 = 343. Hence option A is the answer.
