Correct Answer: 5 m

Solution : Firstly, we will draw the diagram as per the given instructions –

Now, we have to find the distance between the starting point and the endpoint.

In the figure, A is the starting point and G is the endpoint. So, AG is the distance between the starting point and the endpoint.
Here, CD = EF = 5 m, CB = 20 m, DE = CF = 25 m
BF = CF – CB
BF = 25 – 20
BF = 5 m
And, BF = AG = 5 m

So, the distance between the starting point and the endpoint is 5 m. Hence, the first option is correct.

Correct Answer: 565

Solution : Let the cost of 1 pen, 1 notebook and 1 file be Rs. $x, y$ and $z$, respectively.
The cost of 4 pens, 6 notebooks, and 9 files is Rs. 305.
The cost of 3 pens, 4 notebooks and 2 files is Rs. 145.
So, $4x + 6y+ 9z = 305$ (Equation1)
$3x + 4y + 2z = 145$ (Equation2)
Performing 2 × (Equation1) – (Equation2), we get
$5x + 8y + 16z = 2(305) - 145$
⇒ $5x + 8y + 16z = 565$
Hence, the correct answer is 565.

Correct Answer: 4

Solution : Let the number be $x$
According to the question,
$x$ = 221 × q + 30 (Let q be the quotient)
⇒ $x$ = 13 × 17 × q + 26 + 4
⇒ $x$ = 13 × (17 × q + 2) + 4
So, when the same number is divided by 13, the remainder will be 4.
Hence, the correct answer is 4.

Correct Answer: BFLORS

Solution : Given:
MANAGE is written as HJDQDP and LITTLE is written as HOWWLO.

Add 3 to the place value of each letter of MANAGE and, then reverse the letters, to get the required code –
M + 3 = P; A + 3 = D; N + 3 = Q; A + 3 = D; G + 3 = J; E + 3 = H
Now, reverse the letters of PDQDJH→HJDQDP
Thus, MANAGE is coded as HJDQDP.
And, LITTLE is written as HOWWLO –
L + 3 = O; I + 3 = L; T + 3 = W; T + 3 = W; L + 3 = O; E + 3 = H
Now, reverse the letters of OLWWOH→HOWWLO
Thus, LITTLE is coded as HOWWLO.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for POLICY→
P + 3 = S; O + 3 = R; L + 3 = O; I + 3 = L; C + 3 = F; Y + 3 = B
Now, reverse the letters of SROLFB→BFLORS

So, POLICY is coded as BFLORS in the code language. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
