Direction (6-10): There are two rows given and to find out the resultant of a particular row we need to follow the following steps: –
Step 1: If an even number is followed by an odd number then the resultant will be the addition of both the numbers.
Step 2: If an odd number is followed by a perfect square then the resultant will be the difference of that square number and the odd number.
Step 3: If an odd number is followed by another odd number (but not a perfect square) then the resultant will be the addition of both the numbers.
Step 4: If an odd number is followed by an even number (but not a perfect square) then the resultant comes by multiplying the numbers.
Step 5: If an even number is followed by another even number then the resultant will be the division of first number by the second number.
Q6. Find the sum of two rows
20 4 5
17 12 11
(a) 178
(b) 205
(c) 223
(d) 225
(e) None of these
S6. Ans(d)
Sol.
For row-1:
An even number is followed by another even number = 20/4 = 5
An odd number is followed by another odd number (but not a perfect square) = 5 + 5 = 10
For row-2:
An odd number is followed by an even number (but not a perfect square) = 17×12 =204
An even number is followed by an odd number = 204 + 11 = 215
The sum is= 215+10=225
Q7. If the sum of the resultants of two rows is 18. Then find the value of X.
21 9 6
50 2 X
(a) 16
(b) 12
(c) 9
(d) 15
(e) None of these
S7. Ans(c)
Sol.
For row -1:
An odd number is followed by a perfect square = 21-9 = 12
An even number is followed by a even number = 12/6 = 2
For row – 2:
An even number is followed by another even number = 50/2 = 25
The resultant of row-2 is = 18-2 = 16
Then value of X must be = 9
Q8. Find the difference between the resultant of first and second row.
25 7 16
8 17 12
(a) 300
(b) 298
(c) 302
(d) 287
(e) None of these
S8. Ans(b)
Sol.
For row – 1:
An odd number is followed by another odd number (but not a perfect square) = 25 + 7 = 32
An even number is followed by an even number = 32/16 = 2
For row – 2:
An even number is followed by an odd number = 8 + 17 = 25
An odd number is followed by an even number (but not a perfect square) = 25×12 = 300
The difference of row-1 and row-2= 300 – 2 =298
Q9. Find the multiplication of the resultant of first and second row.
51 21 4
16 17 5
(a) 610
(b) 684
(c) 722
(d) 720
(e) None of these
S9. Ans(b)
Sol. For row – 1:
An odd number is followed by another odd number (but not a perfect square) = 51 + 21= 72
An even number is followed by another even number = 72/4 = 18
For row – 2:
An even number is followed by an odd number = 16 + 17 = 33
An odd number is followed by another odd number (but not a perfect square) = 33 + 5 = 38
The multiplication of row-1 and row-2= 18 x 38 = 684
Q10. Find the sum of the resultant of first and second row.
7 8 13
5 16 9
(a) 69
(b) 71
(c) 68
(d) 73
(e) None of these
S10. Ans(b)
Sol.
For row – 1:
An odd number is followed by an even number (but not a perfect square) = 7 x 8 = 56
An even number is followed by an odd number = 56 + 13 = 69
For row – 2:
An odd number is followed by a perfect square =16-5 = 11
An odd number is followed by a perfect square =11 – 9 = 2
The multiplication of row-1 and row-2= 69 + 2 = 71
