A. 1
B. 7
C. 16
D. 56

Correct answer

Why

Apply BODMAS from left to right for division and multiplication: 24 / 4 x 2 + 8 - 4 = 6 x 2 + 8 - 4 = 16.

Question 2 / Numerical Ability

A student needs 300 marks to pass. The student scores 225 and fails by 10% of the maximum marks. What are the maximum marks?

A. 700

C. 800
D. 850

Correct answer

B. 750

Why

The shortfall is 300 - 225 = 75, which is 10% of maximum marks. Therefore maximum marks = 75 / 0.10 = 750.
