What internal angle is made by the hands of a clock at 04:40?
95º
105º
100º
90º
Correct answer
100º
Why this answer is correct
Angle: There are two types of angles that are made by the hands of a clock.
1) Internal Angle:- Angle between two needles (Hour and Minute hands of a clock) is less than 180º
To find the angle between the hands of the clock,
Angle = | Hour × 30 - 11 ÷ 2 × Minute |
Given,
Hour = 4
Minute = 40
Substitute the value of Hour and minute in the above formula.
Angle = | 4 × 30 - 11 ÷ 2 × 40 |
Angle = | 120 - 11 × 20 |
Angle = |120 - 220 |
Angle = | - 100 |
Angle = 100º (Less than 180º)
Hence, 100º is the correct answer.

Arjun is facing towards the south. From there, he walks 15 m towards the east, then 20 m towards the north, then 15 m towards the east and then 20 m towards the north to reach point B. what is the shortest distance between his starting point and point B?
50 m
30 m
45 m
60 m
Correct answer
50 m
Why this answer is correct
Directions:-
Here, A is the starting point and B is the end point.
AB = √ 30 × 30 + 40 × 40
AB = √ 900 + 1600
AB = √ 2500
AB = 50
Thus, the correct answer is 50 m.
In a certain code language, ‘PROVED’ is written as ‘65’and ‘REMOVER’ is written as ‘81’.How will ‘DEVOUR’ be written in that language?
85
80
70
75
Correct answer
70
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is:
Logic: Sum of the place value of all the letters except O.
'PROVED’ is written as ‘65'
⇒ 16 + 18 + 22 + 5 + 4 = 65.
'REMOVER’ is written as ‘81'
⇒ 18 + 5 + 13 + 22 + 5 + 18 = 81.
Similarly, for 'DEVOUR'
⇒ 4 + 5 + 22 + 21 + 18 = 70.
So, 'DEVOUR' will be written as '70'.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Hence, the correct answer is "1020".
Reading the given cluster from left to right, how many consonants are there that are immediately followed by a vowel?
(Left) U T R @ T 3 M @ 7 D E G M E 7 # X X 4 1 X D & G O H 4 @ 3 1 K M S A C # D (Right)
3
6
4
5
Correct answer
4
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is:
1) Vowels are a, e. i, o, u.
2) Consonants are all the letters in English alphabet except vowels.
The required pattern is : Consonants → Vowel
In the given series, consonants that are immediately followed by a vowel are:
Series : (Left) U T R @ T 3 M @ 7 D E G M E 7 # X X 4 1 X D & G O H 4 @ 3 1 K M S A C # D (Right)
Thus, there are FOUR consonants that are immediately followed by a vowel, namely DE, ME, GO, SA.
Hence, "4" is the correct answer.
Which of the following figures can be removed so that all, starting from I, fit into a pattern?
II
IV
III
V
Correct answer
IV
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed is:
i) In figure alphabet A is moving each corner in the box in a clockwise direction and replaced by the next alphabet.
ii) In figure alphabet N is moving in the next box in a clockwise direction and replaced by the previous alphabet.
iii) Number is moving each corner in the box in a clockwise direction and replaced by the next number.
Except for the fourth, all the others are following the pattern to their next image.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".
A few boys are sitting in a row. Prateek is sitting fifteenth from the left and Rahul is the tenth boy from the right. If there are five boys between Prateek and Rahul, how many boys are there in the row?
29
31
33
30
Correct answer
30
Why this answer is correct
Position of Prateek = 15th from the left
Position of Rahul = 10th from the right
Number of boys between Prateek and Rahul = 5
Total boys in row = 15 + 5 + 10 = 30
Thus, there are 30 boys in the row.
Here, we have not checked for the overlapping condition because all the options are greater than 25 (15 from the left + 10 from the right). So, it is definite that it is not an overlapping condition.
