  3. C. 14 years
  4. D. 18 years

Solution

Let the present age of the son be 's' and the father's age be 'f'. Given, f + s = 60 ----(1) Six years ago, father's age was (f-6) and son's age was (s-6). According to the problem, (f-6) = 5(s-6) f - 6 = 5s - 30 f = 5s - 24 ----(2) Substitute (2) into (1): (5s - 24) + s = 60 6s - 24 = 60 6s = 84 s = 14. So, the son's present age is 14 years. (There was a mistake in calculation, option 14 is available)

  1. A. GJRG

In the given code, each letter is shifted one position forward in the alphabet. W+1=X, A+1=B, T+1=U, E+1=F, R+1=S. Following the same pattern for FIRE: F+1=G, I+1=J, R+1=S, E+1=F. So, FIRE becomes GJRG.

Q7. What is the value of (√81 + √121 - √49) / √16?

(√81 + √121 - √49) / √16 का मान क्या है?

  1. A. 3
  2. B. 4
  3. C. 5
  4. D. 6

Solution

√81 = 9 √121 = 11 √49 = 7 √16 = 4 So, (9 + 11 - 7) / 4 = (20 - 7) / 4 = 13 / 4 = 3.25. (Recheck question and options, likely there's a typo in the options or question if 3.25 is not among them). Let's re-evaluate: 9 + 11 - 7 = 13. 13/4 = 3.25. If there's an issue with the options, let's assume one of them should be 3.25, or the question was intended differently. Assuming the options are correct and there's a typo in my calculation, let's look for a whole number answer. None of the whole numbers work for 13/4. Let's assume there was a typo and the correct answer is 13/4.

  3. C. 308 cm²

Solution

Circumference of a circle (C) = 2πr. Given C = 44 cm. So, 2 * (22/7) * r = 44 44/7 * r = 44 r = 7 cm. Area of a circle (A) = πr² A = (22/7) * 7 * 7 A = 22 * 7 A = 154 cm².
