Q1: The sum all even natural numbers between 1 and 31 is:

Solution:
The even natural numbers between 1 and 31 are 2, 4, 6, ..., 30. Using sum formula for an AP:
Sum = n/2 * (first term + last term).
Here, n=15, first term=2, last term=30.
Sum = 15/2 * (2+30) = 15 * 16 = 240.
Answer: c. 240.
Q2: The sum of first five prime numbers is:
Solution:
The first five prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11.
Sum = 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 = 28.
Answer: d. 28.

Q7: The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 63. The middle one is:
Solution:
Let the three consecutive odd numbers be x, x+2, x+4:
Sum = x + (x+2) + (x+4) = 63.
3x + 6 = 63 x = 19.
The middle number = 19.
Answer: c. 19.
Q8: If one-third of one-fourth of a number is 15, then three-tenth of that number is:
Solution:
One-third of one-fourth of a number = 15:
(1/3)*(1/4)*N = 15 N = 15 * 12 = 180.
Three-tenth of N = (3/10)*180 = 54.
Answer: d. 54.
Q9: Three times the first of three consecutive odd integers are 3 more than twice the third. The third integer is:
Solution:
Let the numbers be x, x+2, x+4:
3x = 2(x+4) + 3.
Solving: x = 9, x+4 = 15.
The third integer = 15.
Answer: c. 15.
