862

Why this answer is correct

Consider the series given:

6 6 5 9 9 6 9 9 6 2 1 6 7 9 9 9 8 5 2 6 9 5 9 5 9 5 6 9 9

The highest three-digit number that can be formed from the given digits in the sequence (all three digits need to be unique) is = 987

6 6 5 9 9 6 9 9 6 2 1 6 7 9 9 9 8 5 2 6 9 5 9 5 9 5 6 9 9

The lowest three-digit number that can be formed from the given digits in the sequence is 125

Difference= Highest three-digit number – Lowest three-digit number

Highest number = 987

Lowest number =125

Difference = 987 – 125 = 862

Thus, the difference between highest three-digit number and lowest three-digit number is 862

Question 485

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (d)D.

One

Why this answer is correct

Given word: HUNGRILY

Now, if the letter of this word are arranged in an alphabetical orders starting from the left to the right, then we get-

(left end) G H I L N R U Y (right end)

Therefore, we see that only one letter, that is Y remains in its original position. The rest of the letters change their positions. 

Hence, the position of only one letter remains unchanged.
