Answer : 2. "40"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 40 Explanation: The third proportional of two numbers p and q is defined to be that number r such that p : q = q : r. Here, required third proportional of 10 & 20, and let it be 'a' => 10 : 20 = 20 : a 10a = 20 x 20 => a = 40 Hence, third proportional of 10 & 20 is 40.

Answer : 2. "37.5"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 37.5 Explanation: Angle between hands of a clock When the minute hand is behind the hour hand, the angle between the two hands at M minutes past H 'o clock => 30H-M5+M2 degrees Here H = 4, M = 15 and the minute hand is behind the hour hand. Hence the angle = 30[4-(15/5)]+15/2 = 30(1)+7.5 = 37.5 degrees

Answer : 2. "Humidity"
Explanation :
Answer: B) Humidity Explanation: The amount of water vapor ranges from a trace amount up to 4% of the mass of air. Water vapor exists as an invisible gas in the air. The amount of water vapor in the air is called absolute humidity. The amount of water vapor in the air as compared with the amount of water that the air could hold is called relative humidity. The maximum amount of water vapor that can be in the air depends on the air temperature.

Answer : 4. "6"
Explanation :
Answer: D) 6 Explanation: Sum of numbers in the outer circle in before Arc should come in inner circle patterns in the clock wise direction next Arc. i.e, 9+6 = 15 comes in next arc of inner circle 7+3 = 10 comes in next arc of inner circle In the same way, 4+2 = 6 comes in place of '?'.

Answer : 3. "4/9"
Explanation :
Answer: C) 4/9 Explanation: Number of white marbles = 4 Number of Black marbles = 5 Total number of marbles = 9 Number of ways, two marbles picked randomly = 9C2 Now, the required probability of picked marbles are to be of same color = 4C2/9C2 + 5C2/9C2 = 1/6 + 5/18 = 4/9.
