Sample questions from this paper

Q1.
Which letter lies exactly between F and R in the English alphabet?
अंग्रेज़ी वर्णमाला में F और R के ठीक बीच कौन-सा अक्षर आता है?
  1. AK
  2. BN
  3. CL
  4. DM
Show answer

Concept: Midpoint position = (first position + second position)/2.

  1. Positions: F = 6, R = 18.
  2. Middle = (6 + 18)/2 = 24/2 = 12.
  3. 12th letter of the alphabet = L.

Trick: Remember EJOTY = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25. J = 10, so 12 = J + 2 = L.

Answer: (C) L

अवधारणा: बीच वाले अक्षर का स्थान = (पहला स्थान + दूसरा स्थान)/2.

  1. स्थान: F = 6, R = 18.
  2. मध्य = (6 + 18)/2 = 12.
  3. 12वाँ अक्षर = L.

ट्रिक: EJOTY = 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 याद रखें। J = 10, तो 12 = J + 2 = L.

उत्तर: (C) L
