Re: A tricky aptitude question : Please solve this.
this is is tricky question
trick behind the question is that they are reversing the digits in question lets see 137 is reversed to 731 276 is reversed to 627 so 435 will be reversed to 534 therefor answer to this question is 534 |

Re: A tricky aptitude question : Please solve this.
if 137+276=435, then 731+672=1425
Analysis: 137 +276 _______ 413 if you add 2 to both 1st and 2nd digit number i.e., 1+2=3 and 3+2=5, then it becomes 35, i.e., 435. Similarly, 731 +672 ________ 1403 Now, add 2 to both 1st and 2nd digit, 0+2=2, 3+2=5 then it becomes 1425. |

Dear friend
if 137+276=435 then 731+672=534 You know why just see that first question isreversed and obviously the answer will definitely be in reverse order. just use your logic. This is my opinion and understanding because you didn't given any option. With best wishes good day |

A tricky aptitude question
2.If 137+276=435 how much is 731+672?
(A) 534 (B) 1403 (C) 1623 (D)1513 Hint:-] when we add 7 and 6(last digits of given numbers) we get 13 in decimal notation, 3 being the last digit. However, in the answer it is 5. A difference of 2 gives us the hint that octal notation is being used here. After verifying the given data, we can easily find answer to the B 1403. explain: decimal ------ octal 137 ------ 95 + 276 ------ 190 --------------------------------------- 285 convert 285(which is in decimal) into octal we get 435. decimal ------ octal 731 ------ 1333 + 672 ------ 1240 --------------------------------------- 2573 convert 2573(which is in octal) into decimal we get 1403. |

Re: A tricky aptitude question : Please solve this.
Add the first digits of the two numbers and increase it by unity, same for the third digit. For the second digit, add the two digits and increment the result by 2. It must be noted that if the addition of the two digits roll up to a two digit number, add the two digits of the corresponding number and perform the operations.
Hence the result is: 534 |
