Answer:
(c) BRPMSXZ
Explanation: On comparing original word and code we get
C = B
H = R
A = P
R = M
I = S
T = X
Y = Z
so CHARITY = BRPMSXZ

Q.12.
Four year ago Ashoka was six years older than Ravi. What is the difference of their ages now?
- Four years
- Six years
- Eight years
- Two years
Answer:
(b) Six years
Explanation: This is the logical question. Everything their age difference will be same ... but we should calculate this like this if asked about the present age...
Let four years ago Ravi's age = x years
Four years ago Ashoka's age = x+6 years.
Present age of Ravi = (x+4) years
Present age of Ashoka = (x + 6 +4) years.
So difference of their ages = x + 10 - x - 4 = 6 years.

Let four years ago Ravi's age = x years
Four years ago Ashoka's age = x+6 years.
Present age of Ravi = (x+4) years
Present age of Ashoka = (x + 6 +4) years.
So difference of their ages = x + 10 - x - 4 = 6 years.

Q.13.
Which of the numbers would be filled in the blank space?
- 22
- 20
- 18
- 24
Answer:
(c) 18
Explanation: in such questions first of all it is found by which rule the numbers are filled. it is found that the numbers in the third square from the left is the sum of the first square and twice of the second square from the left.
as 8 ⨉ 2 + 4 = 20,
2 ⨉ 3 + 9 = 15,
∴ Req. number = 2 ⨉ 6 + 6 = 18 ,
hence the correct answer is option (C) 18.

Q.14.
Four different positions of a dice are shown below. How many dots will be on the face opposite to the face which contains one dot?
- 2
- 3
- 4
- 6
Answer:
(d) 6
Explanation: From the first and second positions, it is found that the adjacent faces to the face containing point 1 have points 2,3 and 5. From the second position, it is also found that the face opposite to the face which contains point 1, should be adjacent to the faces containing points 2 and 5. From the third position, it is clear that the adjacent face to the faces containing points 2 and 5, contains point 6. Therefore the face opposite to the face containing point 1 must have 6 points.
