Sol.
Comparing the positions of the capital letters, numbers and small letters, we find p corresponds to C and 2
corresponds to p. So, p and 2 correspond to C. q corresponds to A and 3 corresponds to q. So, q and 3
corresponds to A. Also, 5 corresponds to D. So, the remaining number i.e., 4 corresponds to B. So, BCCB
corresponds to 4, 2, 2, 4.

MISSING TERMS IN FIGURES :
Directions : (32 to 40) Find the missing number(s) :
Ex. 32
(A) 32 (B) 22 (C) 18 (D) 27
Sol. In first figure, 5 × 4 + 6 = 26
In second figure, 8 × 3 + 5 = 29
∴ missing number in third figure, 6 × 3 + 4 = 22
Ans. (B) 22
Ex.33
(A) 140 (B) 150 (C) 200 (D) 180
Sol. In first figure, 8 × 5 × 3 + 3 × 2 × 9 = 120 + 54 = 170
In second figure, 6 × 7 × 5 + 2 × 7 × 9 = 210 + 126 = 336
∴ missing number in third figure, 3 × 2 × 5 + 6 × 4 × 5 = 30 + 120 = 150
Ans. (B) 150
Ex. 34
(A) 15 (B) 20 (C) 25 (D) 40
Sol. Clearly
In first figure, 6 × 3 - 4 × 2 = 18 - 8 = 10
In second figure, 9 × 5 - 5 × 3 = 45 - 15 = 30
∴ In third figure, 6 × 5 - 2 × 5 = 30 -10 = 20
Ans. (B) 20
Ex 35.
(A) 184 (B) 210 (C) 241 (D) 425
Sol. The number at the bottom is the difference of squares of two numbers given at top
In first, 112 = 92 = 121 - 81 = 40
In second figure, 152 - 72 = 225 - 49 = 176
∴ In third figure, 252 - 212 = 625 - 441 = 184
Ans. (A) 184
Ex. 36 6 18 15
3 2 5
4 3 ?
8 27 9
(A) 11 (B) 6 (C) 3 (D) 2
6× 4
Sol. Clearly, in the I Column , =8
3
18 × 3
In the II column, = 27
2
We take x in place of ?
15 × x
Similarly I the III column, =9
5
9×5
x= =3
15
Ans. (C) 3
Ex. 37
(A) 0 (B) 2 (C) 3 (D)1
Sol. (4 × 3) - (5 × 1) = 7, (4 × 3) - (2 × 3) = 6
Similarly, (2 × 1) - (3 × 0) =2
Ans. (B) 2
Ex. 38
(A) 12 (B) 9 (C) 14 (D) 10
Sol. In the Diagram, (9 - 3) + (7 - 5) = 8
In the II Diagram, (6 - 4) + (5 - 0) = 7
∴ In the III Diagram, (10 - 5) + (7 - 3) = 9
Ans. (B) 9
Ex. 39 Find the missing letters from left to right.
Z - V
R K -
- C F
(A) JSN (B) JNS (C) JRS (D) KRS
Sol. In first column, Z = 26, R = 18
In second column, K = 11, C = 3
We find the gap of 8 is there both columns.
adopting the same rule, we find that
V = 22, N = 14
3 8 10 2 ? 1
Ans. (A) JSN
Ex 40. 6 56 90 2 20 0
(A) 0 (B) 3 (C) 5 (D) 7
Sol. Suppose X denotes the numbers in the first row and Y denotes the numbers in the second row.
Then, the pattern is X2 - X = Y.
Clearly, 32 - 3 = 9 - 3 ; 82 - 8 = 64 - 8 = 56 ; 102 - 10 = 100 - 10 = 90 ; 22 - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2 ; 12 - 1 = 1 - 1 = 0.
Similarly, 52 - 5 = 20. So, the missing number is 5.
Ans. (C) 5
Ex. 41 Find the value of X in the following figure :
(A) 3 (B) 4 (C) 8 (D) 12
Sol. The top left number is obtained by adding the bottom two numbers. The top right hand number is the result
of dividing the bottom two numbers. Thus,
12 + 3 = 15, 12 ÷ 3 = 4 ;
22 + 11 = 33, 22 ÷ 11 = 2 ;
18 + 9 = 27, 18 ÷ 9 = 2.
So, 32 + X = 36 and 32 ÷ X = 8 or X = 4.
Ans. (B) 4
