ANSWER KEYS and SOLUTIONS:

1) – C)2) – C)3) – B)4) – B)5) – B)6) – C)
7) – E)8) – C)9) – D)10) – B)

Solution 1: C)

324 + 7– 1 = 372

372 + 8+ 1 = 437

437 + 9– 1 = 517

517 + 10+ 1 = 618

618 + 11– 1 = 738

738 + 12+ 1 = 883

883 + 132 – 1 = 1051

618 should come in place of 620

Hence, option c.

Solution 2: C)

For I;

4 × 1 + 1 = 5

5 × 2 + 2 = 12

12 × 3 + 3 = 39

39 × 4 + 4 = 160

160 × 5 + 5 = 805

Therefore, For II:

1st term = 160

160 × 1 + 1 = 161

161 × 2 + 2 = 324

324 × 3 + 3 = 975

975 × 4 + 4 = 3904

Therefore, m = 3904

Hence, option c.

Solution 3: B)

632 + 7 × 9 = 695

695 – 9 × 11 = 596

596 + 11 × 13 = 739

739 – 13 × 15 = 544

544 + 15 × 17 = 799

Wrong term = 540

So, 10th term = 540 + 7 × 9 – 9 × 11 + 11 × 13 – 13 × 15 + 15 × 17 – 17 × 19 + 19 × 21 – 21 × 23 + 23 × 25 = 875

Hence, option b.

RBI Assistant 2023 Mains Free Mock Test

Solution 4: B)

58 × 1.5 = 87

87 × 2 = 174

174 × 2.5 = 435

435 × 3 = 1305

Similarly:

16 × 1.5 = 24

24 × 2 = 48

48 × 2.5 = 120

120 × 3 = 360

360 × 3.5 = 1260

So the value of m = 1260

Hence, option b.

Solution 5: B)

57 + 42 = 73,

73 + 52 = 98,

98 + 62 = 134,

134 + 72 = 183,

183 + 82 = 247,

247 + 92 = 328

Hence, option b.

Solution 6: C)

The given series follows the following pattern:

So, a = 96 and b = 100.

Since, b = 100, 5th term = 100 + 55

Hence, option c.

Solution 7: E)

2 × a = x

Or, 2 × 96 = x

So, x = 192

5th term of the given series = 107

So, required difference = 192 – 107 = 85

Hence, option e.

Solution 8: C)

Next term of the series = 173 + (45 × 3.5) = 330.5

{(330.5 – 96)/96} × 100 ~ 244%

Hence, option c.

Solution 9: D)

24 × 1 + 4 × 3 = 36

36 × 2 + 4 × 4 = 88

88 × 3 + 4 × 5 = 284

284 × 4 + 4 × 6 = 1160

1160 × 5 + 4 × 7 = 5828

Therefore, 88 should come in place of 84.

Hence, option d.

Solution 10: B)

124 + 56 = 180

180 + 72 = 252

252 + 56 = 308

308 + 72 = 380

380 + 56 = 436

Therefore, 436 should come in place of 416.

Hence, option b.
