Answer : 1. "50 yrs"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 50 yrs Explanation: Let age of retirement = Sso according to the given condition 25000(x-20)=10000 x 3 + 12000 + 14000 + 16000 + 18000 + 20000 + 22000 + 24000 + 26000 + 28000 + 30000 + 30000(S-33)= 30000 + 210000 + 30000S-990000= 30000S - 750000or 25000S - 500000 = 30000x - 750000or 5000x = 250000or S = 50 yrs.

Answer : 1. "2 days"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 2 days Explanation: work done=total number of person x number of days;half of work done = 140 x 66;For half of remaining work 25 extra men are added.Therefore, total men for half work remaining = 140 + 25 = 165;Let 2nd half work will be completed in K days;140 x 66 = 165 x KK = 122;Hence, extra days => 122-120 = 2days.

Answer : 4. "14"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 14 Explanation: The given number series is 96, 95, 87, 78, ? It follows a pattern that, 9696 - 12 = 9595 - 23 = 95 - 8 = 8787 - 32 = 87 - 9 = 7878 - 43 = 78 - 64 = 14 Hence, the next number in the given number series is 14.

Answer : 2. "720"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 720 Explanation: Let last digit is 2when second last digit is 4 remaining 4 digits can be filled in 120 ways, similarly second last digit is 6 remained 4 digits can be filled in 120 ways.so for last digit = 2, total numbers=240 Similarly for 4 and 6When last digit = 4, total no. of ways =240and last digit = 6, total no. of ways =240so total of 720 even numbers are possible.

Answer : 4. "6"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 6 Explanation: Let us assume Amount be 100 Rs and we calculate in CI First year 60% of 100 = 60 amount (100+60) is 160 Second year 60% of 160 = 96 amount (160+96) is 256 Third year 60% of 256 =153.6 amount (256+153.6) is 409.6 Here the Amount of 100 Rs is quadrapled in 3 years. One year contains 2 half years Three year has 6 half years. Therefore, It takes 6 half years.

Answer : 1. "2893"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 2893 Explanation: For solving this problem first we would break the whole range in 5 sections 1) From 1 to 9Total number of zero in this range = 0 2) From 10 to 99Total possibilities = 9*1 = 9 ( here 9 is used for the possibilities of a non zero integer) 3) From 100 to 999 - three type of numbers are there in this range a) x00 b) x0x c) xx0 (here x represents a non zero number)Total possibilities for x00 = 9*1*1 = 9, hence total zeros = 9*2 = 18for x0x = 9*1*9 = 81, hence total zeros = 81similarly for xx0 = 81 total zeros in three digit numbers = 18 + 81 +81 = 180 4) From 1000 to 9999 - seven type of numbers are there in this rangea)x000 b)xx00 c)x0x0 d)x00x e)xxx0 f)xx0x g)x0xxTotal possibilities for x000 = 9*1*1*1 = 9, hence total zeros = 9*3 = 27 for xx00 = 9*9*1*1 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162 for x0x0 = 9*1*9*1 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162for x00x = 9*1*1*9 = 81, hence total zeros = 81*2 = 162 for xxx0 = 9*9*9*1 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729for xx0x = 9*9*1*9 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729for x0xx = 9*1*9*9 = 729, hence total zeros = 729*1 = 729total zeros in four digit numbers = 27 + 3*162 + 3*729 = 2700thus total zeros will be 0+9+180+2700+4 (last 4 is for 4 zeros of 10000)= 2893
