Question : Directions: Which of the following numbers will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?
$\frac{1}{121}, \frac{1}{11}, 1, ?, 121$

Option 1: 11

Option 2: 12

Option 3: 21

Option 4: 1

Team Careers360 21st Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 11


Solution : Given:
$\frac{1}{121}, \frac{1}{11}, 1, ?, 121$

Multiply the previous term by 11 to obtain the next term.
$\frac{1}{121}×11=\frac{1}{11}; \frac{1}{11}×11=1; 1×11=11; 11×11=121$

So, 11 is the missing term in the series. Hence, the first option is correct.

Question : The difference between a discount of 30% on Rs. 2,000 and two successive discounts of 25% and 5% on the same amount is:

Option 1: Rs. 30

Option 2: Rs. 35

Option 3: Rs. 25

Option 4: Rs. 40

Team Careers360 24th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Rs. 25


Solution : Amount = Rs. 2,000
If discount = 30%, final amount = $\frac{70}{100}$ × 2000 = Rs. 1,400
If two successive discounts of 25% and 5%,
final amount = $\frac{75}{100}$ × $\frac{95}{100}$ × 2000 = Rs. 1,425
$\therefore$ Difference = 1425 – 1400 = Rs.

$=\frac{\frac{5}{2}-\frac{3}{7} \times \frac{9}{5} \div \frac{27}{7}}{\frac{3}{2}+ \frac{7}{5} \div  \frac{7}{2} \times  \frac{5}{4}}$
$=\frac{\frac{5}{2}-\frac{3}{7} \times \frac{9}{5} \times \frac{7}{27}}{\frac{3}{2}+ \frac{7}{5} \times \frac{2}{7} \times  \frac{5}{4}}$
$=\frac{\frac{5}{2}-\frac{9}{5} \times \frac{1}{9}}{\frac{3}{2}+ \frac{1}{2}}$
$=\frac{\frac{5}{2}-\frac{1}{5} }{2}$
$=\frac{\frac{23}{10} }{2}$
$=\frac{23}{20} $
