Q1.
If A denotes ‘+’, B denotes ‘×’, C denotes ‘−’, and D denotes ‘÷’, then what will be the value of the following expression?
144 C 8 B 20 A 81 D 3 = ?
यदि A का अर्थ ‘+’, B का अर्थ ‘×’, C का अर्थ ‘−’ और D का अर्थ ‘÷’ है, तो निम्नलिखित व्यंजक का मान क्या होगा?
144 C 8 B 20 A 81 D 3 = ?
  1. A23
  2. B11
  3. C45
  4. D21
Show answer

Concept: Replace each letter by its sign and then simplify using BODMAS (÷ and × first, then + and −).

  1. Expression becomes 144−8×20+81÷3.
  2. Division and multiplication: 81÷3=27, 8×20=160.
  3. Now 144−160+27=11.

Trick: Always finish ÷ and × before touching + and −.

Answer: (B) 11

अवधारणा: हर अक्षर की जगह उसका चिह्न लगाकर BODMAS (पहले ÷, ×; फिर +, −) से हल करें।

  1. व्यंजक: 144−8×20+81÷3
  2. 81÷3=27 तथा 8×20=160
  3. अब 144−160+27=11

ट्रिक: + और − से पहले हमेशा ÷ और × हल करें।

उत्तर: (B) 11

Q101.
The ratio of the number of boys to that of girls in a school is 5 : 2. If 87% of the boys and 80% of the girls passed in the annual exams, then find the percentage of students who failed in the annual exams.
एक विद्यालय में लड़कों की संख्या का लड़कियों की संख्या से अनुपात 5 : 2 है। यदि 87% लड़के और 80% लड़कियाँ वार्षिक परीक्षाओं में उत्तीर्ण हुए, तो वार्षिक परीक्षाओं में अनुत्तीर्ण होने वाले विद्यार्थियों का प्रतिशत ज्ञात कीजिए।
  1. A18%
  2. B16%
  3. C15%
  4. D17%
Show answer

Concept: Failed % of the whole = weighted average of failed % of each group.

  1. Let boys =5k, girls =2k, total =7k.
  2. Failed boys =13% of 5k=0.65k; failed girls =20% of 2k=0.4k.
  3. Total failed =1.05k, so failed %=1.05k7k×100=15%.

Trick: Weighted average: 5×13+2×207=1057=15%.

Answer: (C) 15%

अवधारणा: कुल फेल % = दोनों समूहों के फेल % का भारित औसत (weighted average)।

  1. माना लड़के =5k, लड़कियाँ =2k, कुल =7k।
  2. फेल लड़के =13% of 5k=0.65k; फेल लड़कियाँ =20% of 2k=0.4k।
  3. कुल फेल =1.05k, अतः 1.05k7k×100=15%।

ट्रिक: भारित औसत: 5×13+2×207=1057=15%।

उत्तर: (C) 15%

Q151.
Select the option that expresses the given sentence in passive voice.
Jack played hide and seek.
  1. AHide and seek was played by Jack.
  2. BHide and seek had been played by Jack.
  3. CHide and seek will be played by Jack.
  4. DHide and seek is played by Jack.
Show answer

Concept: Simple Past active (Subject + V2 + Object) becomes passive as Object + was/were + V3 + by + Subject.

  1. Subject = Jack, verb = played (simple past), object = hide and seek.
  2. Object becomes the new subject: Hide and seek (a single game, so singular was).
  3. Verb: was + V3 = was played; agent: by Jack.
  4. (B) is past perfect, (C) future, (D) present – tense changed, so wrong.

Trick: Tense never changes in voice change – V2 in active means was/were + V3 in passive.

Answer: (A) Hide and seek was played by Jack.

अवधारणा: Simple Past active (Subject + V2 + Object) का passive: Object + was/were + V3 + by + Subject।

  1. Subject = Jack, verb = played (simple past), object = hide and seek।
  2. Object नया subject बनेगा: Hide and seek (एक खेल, इसलिए singular was)।
  3. Verb: was + V3 = was played; अंत में by Jack।
  4. (B) past perfect, (C) future, (D) present है – tense बदल गया, इसलिए गलत।

ट्रिक: Voice बदलने पर tense नहीं बदलता – active में V2 है तो passive में was/were + V3।

उत्तर: (A) Hide and seek was played by Jack.
