Question : Directions: If A denotes +, B denotes ×, C denotes –, and D denotes ÷, then what will be the value of the following expression? 456 C 236 D 2 A 14 B 1 = ?
Option 1: 352
Option 2: 234
Option 3: 353
Option 4: 453
Correct Answer: 352
Solution : Given: 456 C 236 D 2 A 14 B 1 = ?
After replacing the letters with the mathematical signs, we get – = 456 – 236 ÷ 2 + 14 × 1 = 456 – 118 + 14 × 1 = 456 – 118

Option 1: 4
Option 2: 1
Option 3: 5
Option 4: 2

Question : In ΔABC with sides 8 cm, 9 cm and 12 cm, the angle bisector of the largest angle divides the opposite sides into two segments. What is the length of the shorter segment?
Option 1: $5 \frac{11}{17} {~cm}$
Option 2: $4\frac{11}{17} {~cm}$
Option 3: $6\frac{13}{17} {~cm}$
Option 4: $3\frac{9}{17} {~cm}$
Correct Answer: $5 \frac{11}{17} {~cm}$
Solution : Suppose AB = 8 cm, BC = 9 cm and AC = 12 cm AD is the angle bisector of $\angle BAC$ We know that, An angle bisector of a triangle divides the opposite side into two segments that are proportional to the
Question : If $\sqrt{1+\frac{x}{529}}=\frac{24}{23}$, then the value of $x$ is:
Option 1: 15
Option 2: 27
Option 3: 47
Option 4: 30
Correct Answer: 47
Solution : $\sqrt{1+\frac{x}{529}}=\frac{24}{23}$ Squaring both sides, $⇒1+\frac{x}{529}=\left(\frac{24}{23}\right)^2$ $⇒1+\frac{x}{529}=\frac{576}{529}$ $⇒\frac{x}{529}=\frac{576}{529}-1=\frac{47}{529}$ $\therefore x=47$ Hence, the correct answer is 47.
Question : An amount was lent for two years at 20% per annum, compounded annually. Had the compounding been done half-yearly, the interest would have increased by Rs. 241. What was the amount (in Rs.) lent?
Option 1: Rs. 10,000
Option 2: Rs. 12,000
Option 3: Rs. 20,000
Option 4: Rs. 24,000
Correct Answer: Rs. 10,000
Solution : Given: An amount was lent for two years at 20% per annum, compounded annually. The difference in interest is Rs. 241. We know the formula, $A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$. For compounding annually $(n = 1)$, $A = P(1 + \frac{0.2}{1})^{1×2}$ ⇒ $A =
