39. (C,D) All the others contain three consecutive 46. (A) Let Bob take block n then the blocks you
digits. will take along with it will be n-1 and n-
40. (D) Looking into the alphabets there are five 2. This means n divisible by 3. So. Lets
such pairs namely ON, HONE, ST, try to find a number between 39 and 40
TRAPHO, RAP. that is divisible by 3. So, according to
1. ON - NO this structure bob will taking blocks
39,38 & 37 all at once. Avvording to the
2. HONE - EFGH
given picture next numbers are 3 less
3. ST - ST than original number means 36,35,&34,
4. TRAPHO - OPQRST but we don’t need to know what is after
this is because 36 is not what we need
5. TRAPHON - NOPQRST to know. So, lets going backward than
5. RAP - PQR as we can see this 90 is five more than
41. (D) adb_ac_da_cddcb_dbc_cbda 85 . 5 more than previous number would
be 42 and this means 41 and 40 those
Fill in the missing letter out of a, b, c, d would be the blocks underneath it. So
and the pattern will be as follows: adbc/
now we have between 40 and 39 is 4
acbd/abcd/dcba/dbca/cbda
Blocks.
So, the missing letters are cbbaa.
