1) Which of the following will come in place of both the question marks in the following equation ? $\frac{128+16 \times ?-7\times 2}{7^{2}-8\times 6+?^{2}}=1$ A) 3 B) 14 C) 16 D) 17 E) 18 Answer: Option AExplanation:Let, $\frac{128\div 16\times x-7\times2}{7^{2}-8\times 6+x^{2}}=1$ => $8x-7\times 2 = 49-48+x^{2}$ => $8x-14=1+x^{2}$ => $x^{2}-8? +15 = 0$ => (x-3)(x-5)=0 => x = 3 or x = 5 As we dont have 5 in option x=3
