Answer : 3. "28"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 28 Explanation: Three persons A, B, C can be arranged in a queue in six different ways, ie ABC, CBA, BAC, CAB, BCA, ACB. But since there are only 3 persons ahead of C, so C should be in front of the queue. Thus, there are only two possible arrangements, ie CBA and CAB. We may consider the two cases as under: Case I: ←3C↔8B↔5A→21 Clearly, number of persons in the queue = (3+1+8+1+5+1+21=) 40 Case II: ←3C A↔5B Number of persons between A and C = (8 - 6) = 2 ∵[C↔8B A→21B] Clearly number of persons in the queue = (3+1+2+1+21) = 28 Now, 28 < 40. So, 28 is the minimum number of persons in the queue.

Answer : 2. "13"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 13 Explanation: Let Let x=333 = 333 Then, logx = 33 log3 = 27 x 0.47712 = 12.88224 Since the characteristic in the resultant value of log x is 12 ∴The number of digits in x is (12 + 1) = 13 Hence the required number of digits in 333is 13.

Answer : 1. "56"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 56 Explanation: If we count letters till the end of the alphabet including that letter in reverse order then Here the values are nothing but the values corresponding to the alphabets when taken in a reverse order,i.e,A=26 ,B=25...,Z=1G = 20 and O = 12 totaling 32S = 8, H = 19 and E = 22 totaling 49 So SOME = 8 + 12 + 14 + 22 = 56.
