Solutions

S11. Ans. (c)
Sol. The number is 1357986420. After rearrangement, the number become 0448895511.
Sum of all odd placed digits = 0 + 4 + 8 + 5 + 1 = 18
Sum of all even placed digits = 4 + 8 + 9 + 5 + 1 = 27
So, difference between odd & even placed digits = 27 – 18 = 9

S12. Ans. (a)
Sol. The number is 012345678. After rearrangement, the number becomes 123456789.
Sum of all even digits = 2 + 4 + 6 + 8 = 20

S13. Ans. (b)
Sol. The number is 987654456789. After rearrangement, the number becomes 876543345678.
Sum of all odd digits = 7 + 5 + 3 + 3 + 5 + 7 = 30

S14. Ans. (d)
Sol. The number is 014725836. After rearrangement, the number becomes 125836947.
Sum of odd placed digits = 1 + 5 + 3 + 9 + 7 = 25
Sum of even placed digits = 2 + 8 + 6 + 4 = 20
Required value = 20/25 = 4/5
