Mahesh wrote five numbers (each of three digits) by reversing the order of each digit and gets the numbers below:
513, 726, 492, 865, 149
Now, which of the following will be the middle digits of the third number from the top when he considers the correct numbers arranged in descending order?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 6
Reversing each number again gives the correct ones: 315, 627, 294, 568 and 941.
In descending order they run 941, 627, 568, 315, 294, so the third from the top is 568 and its middle digit is 6.
