Q3. If one-third of one-fourth of a number is 15, then three-tenth of that number is:
Answer : Option D
Explaination / Solution:
Let the number be x.
| Then, | 1 | of | 1 | of x = 15  x = 15 x 12 = 180. |
| 3 | 4 |
| So, required number = |  | 3 | x 180 |  | = 54. |
| 10 |
Q4. How many total number of triangles are there in the problem figure given below:
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:
No Explaination.
Q5. If x = 11 then 
- 12x4+ 13
- 12
+ 12x – 5 = ?
- 12x4+ 13- 12 + 12x – 5 = ?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:
x5 – 12x4 + 13x3 + 12x2 + 12x – 5
x5 - 12x4 + 12x3 - 12x2 + 12x – 5 + x3
x5 - 11x4 - x4 + 11x3 + x3 - 11x2 - x2 + 11x + x – 5 + x3
x4 (x-11) - x3 (x-11) + x2 (x-11) – x (x-11) + x-5 + x3
= 11- 5 + (11)3
= 1331 + 6 = 1337
