Solutions

S6. Ans. (d)
Sol. Series= 548  654  965  694  865
After rearrangement = 854 654 965 964 865
Therefore, option (d) is the correct answer.

S7. Ans. (b)
Sol. After interchange = 845  456  569  496  568
Second lowest number= 496; Required sum = 4 + 9 + 6 = 19
Therefore, option (b) is the answer.

S8. Ans. (c)
Sol. First digit of highest number (965) = 9; Third digit of second lowest number (654) = 4
Required resultant = 9 ÷ 4 = 2.25
Therefore, option (c) is the correct answer.

S9. Ans. (d)
Sol. After rearrangement = 965 865 694 654 548
Required product = 8 x 6 = 48
Therefore, option (d) is correct.

S10. Ans. (d)
Sol. After subtraction = 446  552  863  592 763
Required difference = 6 – 6 = 0
Therefore, option (d) is the correct answer.
