The question asks to identify which of the given elements is found as a free element in nature. This relates to the reactivity series of metals. Elements that are less reactive tend to exist in their free, uncombined state, while highly reactive elements readily combine with other elements to form compounds.
A) Ag — Silver (Ag) is a noble metal, meaning it is relatively unreactive. Due to its low reactivity, it can be found in its elemental or native state in nature, often alongside other noble metals like gold and platinum.

Identify the odd one:
To identify the odd one out, examine the patterns and shapes in each option. Look for a common theme or rule that applies to most options but is violated by one.
Thus, the odd one out is option B, as it does not contain a triangle.
Correct Option: B) Circle inside a square, no triangle present.
This problem can be solved by setting up a system of linear equations based on the given information. We are given the sum of money for three pairs of individuals. By adding these equations, we can find the total money held by all three individuals combined. Then, by subtracting the sum of two individuals' money from the total, we can find the money held by the third individual.
Let M be the amount of money Malika has, R be the amount Rani has, and T be the amount Tamali has.
Formulate the given information into equations:
Add all three equations together:
\[ (\text{M} + \text{R}) + (\text{R} + \text{T}) + (\text{T} + \text{M}) = 227 + 273 + 280 \]\[ 2\text{M} + 2\text{R} + 2\text{T} = 780 \]Divide the sum by 2 to find the total money held by Malika, Rani, and Tamali:
\[ 2(\text{M} + \text{R} + \text{T}) = 780 \]\[ \text{M} + \text{R} + \text{T} = \frac{780}{2} \]\[ \text{M} + \text{R} + \text{T} = 390 \quad \text{(Equation 4)}\]To find how much money Malika has, subtract Equation 2 (Rani and Tamali's money) from Equation 4 (total money):
\[ (\text{M} + \text{R} + \text{T}) - (\text{R} + \text{T}) = 390 - 273 \]\[ \text{M} = 117 \]Therefore, Malika has Rs. 117.
D) Rs. 117 — As calculated, Malika has Rs. 117.
To find the next number in the series, we need to identify the pattern or the relationship between consecutive numbers. We will look for differences between terms or a rule that generates each term.
Another pattern can be observed:
Following this pattern, the next number should be \(6 \times 7 = 42\).
Both methods yield the same result, confirming the pattern.
Correct Option: D) 42
The question asks to identify the country for which archery is the national sport. This is a general knowledge question that requires recall of facts about national sports of different countries.
C) Bhutan — Archery is officially recognized as the national sport of Bhutan and holds significant cultural importance in the country.
Taking the following statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts, decide which of the conclusion(s) logically follows from the given statements.
Statements:
All pigeons are doves.
All doves are oriental rollers.
Conclusions:
1. All oriental rollers are doves.
2. All pigeons are oriental rollers.
Either conclusion 1 or conclusion 2 follows
Only conclusion 1 follows
Only conclusion 2 follows.
Conclusions 1 and 2 both follow
This is a syllogism problem, which can be solved using Venn diagrams or by applying logical rules of categorical propositions. We need to determine which conclusion(s) logically follow from the given statements, treating the statements as true.
C) Only conclusion 2 follows.
Conclusion 2 is a direct logical deduction from the two given statements. If set A is a subset of set B, and set B is a subset of set C, then set A must be a subset of set C.
The image that does not belong to the group:
The question asks us to identify which image does not belong to the group. To solve this, we need to analyze the patterns or sequences in the images.
Correct Option: C) Option C contains a number (5) that disrupts the sequence seen in the other options.
