Letters which are followed by a number:

8 W H 6 T 8 4 G 9 E R 6 K 5 L Q 7 U P 3.

So, we can say the there are '7 letters' in the given string which are followed by number.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

Given:

Mean - Mode = 87

Formula used:

The empirical relation between mean, median and mode is

Mode = 3Median - 2Mean

Calculation:

Mean - Mode = 87

⇒ Mode = Mean - 87

Mode = 3Median - 2Mean

⇒ Mean - 87 = 3Median - 2Mean

⇒ 3Mean - 3Median = 87

⇒ 3(Mean - Median) = 87

⇒ Mean - Median = 87/3 = 29

∴ The difference between the mean and median is 29.

The logic followed here is:

According to the alphabetical positions of the letters,

Similarly,

Hence, ‘TRD’ is the correct answer.

The correct answer is AB+

Key Points 

• The AB+ blood group is considered the universal recipient because an individual with this blood type can receive blood from any other blood type- A, B, AB, and O.
• In the AB blood type, the red blood cells comprise both antigens A and B, but the plasma lacks both anti-A or anti-B antibodies.

Additional Information 

• There are four major blood groups:
• A, B, O, and AB.
• Blood groups are classified as blood, they are classified on the presence and absence of antibodies and other antigens on the surface of Red blood cells.
• People with O negative blood group are considered universal donors. Because the RBCs they contain do not have  A, B, or Rh antigens.
• The concept of Universal Donor and Recipient can be easily understood through this Image-

Important Points 

• Blood is composed of four components: White blood cells, Red blood cells, plasma, and platelets.
• Red blood cells are red in colour due to the presence of Hemoglobin, which is an iron-containing protein.
• When viruses or bacteria enter the blood, then White blood cells help in fighting infections.
• Blood Plasma is a yellowish liquid component of blood that helps in the transportation of nutrients like minerals, protein, vitamins, sugars, and fats to all parts of the body.

Hence, the correct answer is option 2).

Given:

Radius of circle A (R_A) = 5 cm

Distance between the center of the two circles (AB) = 8 cm

Calculations:

The distance between the center of the two circles (AB) = 8 cm

Let, RA be the radius of circle A and RB be the radius of circle B.

From the above diagram, it is clear that,

Distance between the center of the two circles (AB) = RA + R_B      ----(1)

We have given in the question that RA = 5 cm

Therefore, equation (1) becomes,

⇒ 8 = 5 + RB

Concept:

• The term taxonomy was first introduced by A.P. de Candolle (1813) for the theory of plant classification.
• Later on, the term was accepted for zoological classification as well.
• Taxonomy can be defined as the study of principles, rules, and procedures of classification.
• All living organisms are arranged into different groups based on the similarities and dissimilarities in them.
• These groups are referred to as ranks or categories. All the categories together are referred to as Taxonomic Hierarchy.
• Taxon refers to a group of living organisms that represent a concrete unit of classification.
• Kingdom, Phylum/Division, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species are the compulsory categories in a Taxonomic Hierarchy.
• Sub-order, sub-family, etc. are facultative categories that are used as per need.

​

Explanation:

Phylum - 

• Phylum is a taxonomic rank that comes under the rank Kingdom.
• The taxonomic rank phylum is used in the classification of animals.
• It includes all the animals belonging to one or more related classes.
• It sometimes includes a facultative category called sub-phyla.
• Example:
• Crocodile belongs to Class Reptilia, Pigeon belongs to Class Aves and Humans belong to Class Mammalia.
• All three classes i.e. the three animals are placed together under Phylum Chordata.
• This is because of the common characteristics that they share.
• All three animals possess a notochord at some stage of their embryonic development.
• The presence of the dorsal tubular nerve cord and perforated pharynx are other common features shared among the three animals.
• In the case of plants, the taxonomic category which includes all the plants belonging to one or more related classes is called Division.
• Example:
• Division Angiosperms include Class Magnoliopsida (Dicots) and Class Liliopsida (Monocots).

So from the above-given explanation, the correct answer is option 3.

= 0

Hence, the correct answer is "0".

Shortcut Trick

Let the weights of Ram, Shyam, and Mohan be 7x, 8x, and 5x respectively.

Total weight = 7x + 8x + 5x = 20x.

Since the average weight is 80 kg, total weight = 80 × 3 = 240 kg.

20x = 240 ⇒ x = 12 kg.

Average weight of Ram and Shyam = (7x + 8x) ÷ 2 = 7.5x = 7.5 × 12 = 90 kg.

∴ The correct answer is 90 kg.

Alternate Method

Given:

Ratio of weights of Ram, Shyam, and Mohan = 7 : 8 : 5

Average weight of all three persons = 80 kg

Calculations:

⇒ Total weight of Ram, Shyam, and Mohan = Average weight × Number of persons

⇒ Total weight = 80 × 3 = 240 kg

⇒ Sum of ratio parts = 7 + 8 + 5 = 20 parts

⇒ Value of 1 part = 240 ÷ 20 = 12 kg

⇒ Weight of Ram = 7 × 12 = 84 kg

⇒ Weight of Shyam = 8 × 12 = 96 kg

⇒ Total weight of Ram and Shyam = 84 + 96 = 180 kg

⇒ Average weight of Ram and Shyam = 180 ÷ 2 = 90 kg

∴ The correct answer is 90 kg.

Additional Information

Averages

The average provides the central or mean value of a set of quantities. Formula: Average = Sum of all observations ÷ Total number of observations.

2) R is the mother of B who is the sister-in-law of W. 

3) R is the grandmother of N who is grandson of C who is the father of B.

Hence, M is father-in-law of B.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Sum of the place values of the letters in the word - Number of letters in that word.

Now,

'ACTOR' is coded as '52'

⇒ A(1) + C(3) + T(20) + O(15) + R(18) - 5 (number of letters in ACTOR )

⇒ 57 - 5 = 52.

'PACK' is coded as '27'

⇒ P(16) + A(1) + C(3) + K(11) - 4 (number of letters in PACK)

⇒ 31 - 4 = 27.

Similarly, for 'SEVEN'

⇒ S(19) + E(5) + V(22) + E(5) + N(14) - 5 (number of letters in SEVEN)

⇒ 65 - 5 = 60;

So, 'SEVEN' will be coded as '60'.

Hence, the correct answer is "60".

Given:

Diameter of cylinder = 35 cm

Curved surface area = 3080 cm²

Formula used:

Radius = Diameter/2

Curved surface are of cylinder = 2πrh

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

where r = radius , h = height

Calculation: 

Diameter (d) = 35 cm

⇒ Radius = d/2

⇒ 35/2

 ⇒Radius = 17.5

Curved surface area of cylinder = 2πrh = 3080

⇒ 2 × 22/7 × 17.5 × h = 3080

⇒ h = 28 cm

Now Volume of cylinder = πr2h

⇒ 22/7 × (17.5)² × 28

⇒ 22 × 306.25 × 4

⇒ 26,950 cm³ 

∴ Volume of cylinder is 26,950 cm³.

• In 1654 the first sealed glass tube was developed by Ferdinand II, the Grand Duke of Tuscany. It contained alcohol and had a numerical scale, but wasn’t very accurate.
• The more modern thermometer was invented in 1709 by Daniel Fahrenheit. It was an enclosed glass tube that had a numerical scale, called the Fahrenheit scale.
• The early version of this thermometer contained alcohol and in 1714 Fahrenheit developed a mercury thermometer using the same scale. He assigned the freezing point of water at 32 degrees, the boiling point of water as 212 degrees, and the normal body temperature as 98.6 degrees.
• Later on, in that same century, the inventor Anders Celsius developed a numerical scale, called the Celsius or Centigrade scale.
• This scale was based on a scale of zero to one hundred where the freezing point of water is zero, the boiling point of water is 100 degrees and normal body temperature is 37 degrees.
• The first real medical thermometer was invented by Sir Thomas Allbut in 1867. It was six inches long and took about five minutes to take a person’s temperature

The correct answer is Fragmentation.

Concept:

• Reproduction is the biological process that produces new individual organisms known as "offspring" from their "parents."
• In animals and plants, there are two modes of reproduction: sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction.
• The Different Modes of Asexual Reproduction in Plants are: 
• Fission, Fragmentation, Regeneration, Budding, Vegetative Propagation.

Explanation:

Fragmentation

• It is a mode of asexual reproduction in which the parental body breaks into two or more fragments and each of which grows into a new individual.
• Example: Spirogyra
• Spirogyra is a type of alga that can be found in pond water.
• These algae grow and multiply rapidly by fragmentation in the presence of water and nutrients.
• Algae can split into two or more fragments, each of which develops into a new individual.
• This method covers a large area in a short period of time.

Additional Information

Budding:

• It is a mode of asexual reproduction in which one or more outgrowths (buds) are produced that remain attached to the parent cell at first but eventually separate from it to grow into a new individual.
• Example: Yeast

Sexual reproduction:

• Sexual reproduction involves formation and fusion of gametes.
• The offsprings are not identical to the parents or to each other hence, it leads to variation in a population.
• It is common in higher animals with complex organisation.
• Example: Human beings

Pollination:

• The process of transfer of pollen (from male reproductive part i.e. anther) to the stigma (from female reproductive part i.e. carpel) of flowering plants is called Pollination.

Shortcut Trick The angle between the hour hand and the minute hand when the clock shows 2.41 pm can be calculated using the following formula:

• Angle = (11/2 M - 30 H)
• where M = Minutes and H = Hours
• Here, M = 41 and H = 14
• Therefore, Angle = (11/2 × 41 - 30 ×2) = 225.5 - 60 = 165.5°.

Detailed Explanation:

• Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hours = 360 °
• Angle traced by hour hand in 1 hour = 360°/12 =30°
• Angle traced by hour hand in 2 hour = 2 × 30° = 60°
• At 2:41, hour hand will be in middle of 2 & 3, so angle traced by hour hand at 2:41

= 60° + (30°× 41/60) = 60° + 20.5° = 80.5°     -(i)

• Angle traced by minute hand in 60 minutes = 360 °
• Angle traced by minute hand in 1 minute  = (360°/60)= 6°
• Angle traced by minute hand in 41 minutes = 41 × 6° = 246°  -(ii)
• Now, the angle between the two hands of a clock when time is 2:41  = 246° - 80.5° (from i & ii) = 165.5°

Hence, '165.5°' is the correct answer.

Given:

⇒ 186 - 168 + 5

⇒ 23

∴ 186 - 7 × (63 - 39) + 25 ÷ 5 = 23

The logic followed here is:

Logic: (1^st number × 7) + 7

Now,

For, 23 : 168

⇒ (23 × 7) + 7

⇒ 161 + 7 = 168.

Similarly, for 16 : ? 

⇒ (16 × 7) + 7

⇒ 112 + 7 = 119.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".
