Directions (11-15): The following questions are based on the five three digits numbers given below:

583 659 427 361 416

Q11. If in each number, all the three digits are arranged in ascending order within the number, which of the following will be the fourth lowest number?
(a) 583
(b) 659
(c) 427
(d) 361
(e) 416

S11. Ans.(a)
Sol. After arranging all the digits in ascending order within each number–
358 569 247 136 146
So, the fourth lowest number will be 583.

Q12. If first digit will be changed (replace) with third digit, then second with first digit and after that third digit with the second digit in each number, then which number will be the lowest?
(a) 583
(b) 659
(c) 427
(d) 361
(e) 416

S12. Ans.(e)

Q13. If the position of first and third digits of the numbers are interchanged with each number then how many numbers thus formed will be completely divisible by 2?
(a) None
(b) Three
(c) More than three
(d) One
(e) Two

S13. Ans.(b)
Sol. After interchanging first and third digits according to the given condition in the question—
385 956 724 163 614
So number completely divisible by 2 will be three.

Q14. What will be result if first digit of second highest number is divided by second digit of second lowest number?
(a) 4
(b) 5
(c) 7
(d) 2
(e) 1

S14. Ans.(b)
Sol. First digit of second highest number is 5 and second digit of the second lowest number is 1. So, the resultant will be 5.

Q15. If in each number, both first and second digits are added and then third digit will be subtracted from that addition then which of the following will be the highest resultant?
(a) 4
(b) 2
(c) 1
