It will be Mona’s position from right after interchange of positions.

3 Answer: d

Explanation: When 27 is divided by 3, we get 9 as quotient.

4 Answer: c

Explanation: The following table gives the explanation.

5 Answer: d

Explanation: Age of mother = M
Age of husband = H = M + 9
Age of Son = S = M/2
Age of Daughter = D = F/3
Also, D = S – 7
Or, S – 7 = F/3
Or, 3S – 21 = F
Or, 3(M/2) – 21 = F
Or, (3M/2) – 21 = M + 9
Or, 3M – 42 = 2M + 18
Or, 3M = 2M + 60
Or, M = 60

6 Answer: a

Explanation: Rs. 96 is divisible by all the options. Let us solve by using option a, i.e. 8
If 8 people attended the picnic then per head cost = Rs. 12
If 8 + 4 people will attend the picnic then per head cost = Rs. Rs. 8
Difference is of Rs. 4
Hence, option a is the right answer.

9 Answer: b

Explanation: The name of vegetable is PUMPKIN

10 Answer: c

Explanation: Let us try to solve this by using the smallest option, i.e. 10
Number of Hens = 10
Number of Cows = 10
Number of Bullocks = 5
Total animals = 25
Hence, number of keepers = 3
Number of heads = 25 + 3 = 28
Number of legs = 10 × 4 + 5 × 4 + 10 × 2 + 3 × 2 = 40 + 20 + 20 + 6 = 86
Difference between number of legs and number of heads = 86 – 28 = 58

Now, let us solved this by using the second smallest option, i.e. 12
Number of Hens = 12
Number of Cows = 12
Number of Bullocks = 6
Total animals = 30
Hence, number of keepers = 3
Number of heads = 30 + 3 = 33
Number of legs = 12 × 4 + 6 × 4 + 12 × 2 + 3 × 2 = 48 + 24 + 24 + 6 = 102
Difference between number of legs and number of heads = 102 – 33 = 69
Hence, option c is the right answer.
