Solutions:
S1.Ans.(d)
Sol. Boy = son of Pooja’s grandfather’s only daughter
= son of Pooja’s paternal aunt
= Pooja’s cousin
Hence, Pooja is also the boy’s cousin.
S2.Ans.(d)
Sol. The pattern of the number series is as given below:
11 × 1 – 1 = 10
10 × 2 – 2 = 18
18 × 3 – 3 = 51
51 × 4 – 4 = 200
200 × 5 – 5 = 995
S4.Ans.(d)
Sol. (11)^2 = 121+1= 122,
(13)^2= 169+1= 170
(17)^2= 289 + 1= 290,
Similarly
(19)^2 = 361 + 1 = 362
