Sol. Meaningful order of words:
S2. Ans.(a)
Sol. Ascending order:
S8. Ans.(d)
Sol. Using the correct symbols, we have:
Given expression =
[{(5 – 10) + (16 × 4)} ÷ (15 + 9)] × 0 = 0
S9. Ans.(d)
Sol. All other groups consist of alternate letters.
S10. Ans.(b)
Sol. Clearly, the order of letters in the word is reversed and then each letter is replaced by the numeral denoting its position in the English alphabet.
