Q-2)   If 1 is added to the first digit and 2 is subtracted from the last digit of each of the numbers and then the digits in each of the numbers are arranged in descending order within the number, then what will be the difference between the second digit of the second highest number and the third digit of the lowest number?

(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

(e)

15821
p327
If 'p' is the resultant of the first row, what will be the resultant of the second row?

(a)

(b)

(c)

Explanation:

r = $R_1$=851735
 =535[Apply Rule (iv)]
 =40 [Apply Rule (i)]
Now, $R_2$=1619r
 =161940
 =3540[Apply Rule (ii)]
 =-5 [Apply Rule (v)]
