Question
Traditionally the internet slows down to a trickle,
since everybody who are not on the street is likely to be online. Directions: In each question below, a sentence is given with a part of it printed in bold type. That part may contain a grammatical error. Each sentence is followed by phrases (A), (B), (C) and (D). Find out which phrase should replace the phrase given in bold to correct the error, if there is any, and to make the sentence grammatically meaningful and correct. If the sentence is correct as it is and ‘No correction is required’ , mark (E) as the answer.Solution
The words and phrases "each," "each one," "either," "neither," "everyone," "everybody," "anyone," "anybody," "nobody," "somebody," "someone," and "no one" are singular and require a singular verb. So, instead of ‘are’, ‘is’ should be used. Traditionally the internet slows down to a trickle, since everybody who is not on the street is likely to be online.
(0.89 3 + 1.64 3 +2.76 3 ) ÷ 5.89 = ?
(?)2 + 6.113 = 25.92 – 19.03
? = 65.78² ÷ (5.01⁵ + 7.02 × 33.33) + 33.33% of (290.88 × 23.09)
440.11 ÷ 21.98 × 5.14 – 72.9 = √?
12.023 + 32.05 × 16.08 – 84.04% of 2400 = 56.06% of ?
124.88% of 60.101 + 18.09% of 849.87 – 22.12% of 1049.93= ? – 19.93
(284.85 ÷ 15.09) x 2.22 + 51.17 = 157.69 - ?
- What approximate value will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following question? (Note: You are not expected to calculate the exact value.)
