24 (Your selection was wrong) 25 96 100 Two spokes cover 15 degree. for 360 degree it is 360/15=24. car has 4 number of wheels. so 4*24=96 If 13 = 13w/(1-w), then (2w)2 =

1/4 1/2 (Your selection was wrong) 1 2

first condition is satisfied only if w=1/2 so putting w=1/2 will give the result 2 hence answer 4 is correct From a pack of cards Jack, Queen, King & ace are removed. Then the algebraic sum of rest of the cards is

220 200 206 216 total of 1 to 10 is 55 so 55 * 4 = 220 subtracting 4 from 220 for four ace gives 216

The average temperature of days from Monday to Wednesday is 37 degree Celsius and that of from Tuesday to Thursday is 34 degrees. The temperature of Thursday is 4/5th of Monday. Then the temperature of Thursday is

45 (Your selection was wrong) 36 37 34 (mon+tue+wed)/3=37 (thu+tue+wed)/3=34 above equation gives mon-thu=9 also thu=4/5mon mon-4/5mon=9 mon=45 and hence thu=4/5*45=36
