Reasoning PYQs

Given equation: 264 * 4 * 7 * 87 * 370 * 5 

Option 1) ×− = + ÷

Signs that can sequentially replace the * signs:

⇒ 264 × 4 - 7 = 87 + 370 ÷ 5 

⇒ 1056 - 7 = 87 + 74 

⇒ 1049 = 161

Option 2) ÷ ×− + =

Signs that can sequentially replace the * signs:

⇒ 264 ÷ 4 × 7 - 87 + 370 = 5 

⇒ 66 × 7 - 87 + 370 = 5 

⇒ 462 - 87 + 370 = 5 

⇒ 832 - 87 = 5 

⇒ 745 = 5 

Option 3) ÷ ×− = +

Signs that can sequentially replace the * signs:

⇒ 264 ÷ 4 × 7 - 87 = 370 + 5 

⇒ 66 × 7 - 87 = 375 

⇒ 462 - 87 = 375 

⇒ 375 = 375 

Option 4) ÷ × = + −

Signs that can sequentially replace the * signs:

⇒ 264 ÷ 4 × 7 = 87 + 370 - 5

⇒ 66 × 7 = 457 - 5

⇒ 462 = 452

Hence, the correct answer is "÷ ×− = +".

The logic followed here is:

Top-right symbol shifts in bottom-right corner position, bottom-right symbol shifts in bottom-left corner position and bottom-left symbol shifts in top-left corner position.

Top-left symbol shifts in top-right position but replaced by a new symbol.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The paper look when unfolded:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The given figure is embedded:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The figure which will look like the paper when unfolded is shown below:

Thus, option Figure 1 will look like the paper when unfolded.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

The number of triangles in the given figure is shown below:

Number of triangles at the base line = 3

Formula Used = \({n(n + 2)(2n + 1)\over 8}\)

Where; n = 3

So,

Number of triangles = \({3(3 + 2)(2 \times 3 + 1)\over 8}\)

= \({3(3 + 2)(6 + 1)\over 8}\)

= \({3 \times 5 \times 7\over 8}\)

= 13.125 ≈ 13

Thus, there are a total of 13 triangles.

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

According to the given information,

Thus, according to the given codes 'are' is code for the word 'north'.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

1. For '

' element → The whole element shifts 135º anticlockwise subsequently.

2. For '

' element → The element shifts to next alternate side '

' element  anticlockwise subsequently.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is :-

From the given three different dices the adjacent sides are as shown below :

As 5 is common on both the dices II and III, it is clear that 6, 4, 3, and 2 are adjacent to it, and the remaining i.e. 1 will be opposite to it.

Opposite pairs:

6 → 3

4 → 2

5 → 1

So, the opposite side of "6" will be side "3".

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The figure which will look like the paper when unfolded is shown below:

Thus, option Figure 4 will look like the paper when unfolded.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as shown below :

Conclusions:

I. All cats are rats → Does not follow (As some rats are bats and some bats are cats. So it is possible but not definite.)

II. Some bats are rats → Follow (As some rats are bats. As some part of rats is common with bats, therefore it is true.)

∴ Here, Only conclusion II follows.​

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Groupings of individuals based on profession.

Here,

Player : Team → Player is a member of a Team.

Similarly,

Artist : Troupe/Team → Artist is a member of a Troupe/Team.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

1. First box series → All the elements shift anticlockwise.

2) Second box series → 

The top row elements interchange positions.

The bottom row elements interchange positions.

The center element is replaced by new element subsequently.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The figure which will look like the paper when unfolded is shown below:

Thus, option Figure 4 will look like the paper when unfolded.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

1. First box series →

The first and last elements of the first row interchange positions.

The rest of the elements shift clockwise.

2) Second box series → 

The first row elements shift clockwise.

The bottom row elements interchange positions.

The fourth element of the first row from the left is replaced by new element subsequently.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

Given: 16 ÷ 2 + 54 - 3 × 2 = 50480÷0.3×5+500190+9×27÷1.6=2480÷0.3×5+500190+9×27÷1.6=2480÷0.3×5+500190+9×27÷1.6=2

According to the question, after interchanging the signs:

Option 1): + and ×

16 ÷ 2 + 54 - 3 × 2 = 50 ⇒ 16 ÷ 2 × 54 - 3 + 2 = 50

⇒ 16 ÷ 2 × 54 - 3 + 2 = 50

⇒ 8 × 54 - 3 + 2 = 50

⇒ 432 + 2 - 3 = 50

⇒ 434 - 3 = 50

⇒ 431 ≠ 50 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  2): − and +

16 ÷ 2 + 54 - 3 × 2 = 50 ⇒ 16 ÷ 2 − 54 + 3 × 2 = 50

⇒ 16 ÷ 2 − 54 + 3 × 2 = 50

⇒ 8 − 54 + 3 × 2 = 50

⇒ 8 + 6 − 54 = 50

⇒ 14 − 54 = 50

⇒ -40 ≠ 50 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  3): − and ×

16 ÷ 2 + 54 - 3 × 2 = 50 ⇒ 16 ÷ 2 + 54 × 3 - 2 = 50

⇒ 16 ÷ 2 + 54 × 3 - 2 = 50

⇒ 8 + 54 × 3 - 2 = 50

⇒ 8 + 162 - 2 = 50

⇒ 170 - 2 = 50

⇒ 168 ≠ 50 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  4): ÷ and −

16 ÷ 2 + 54 - 3 × 2 = 50 ⇒ 16 - 2 + 54 ÷ 3 × 2 = 50

⇒ 16 - 2 + 54 ÷ 3 × 2 = 50

⇒ 16 - 2 + 18 × 2 = 50

⇒ 16 + 36 - 2 = 50

⇒ 52 - 2 = 50

⇒ 50 = 50 (LHS = RHS)

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Given: Rupin, Sunny, Guddu, Shradha, Naveen and Rahul are sitting around a circular table facing each other and sitting opposite to each other. 

1) Naveen is opposite Shradha. 

2) Rupin is between Naveen and Rahul.

As position of Rupin with respect to Naveen is not known yet, therefore there are two possible cases.

Case 1)

Case 2)

3) Guddu is not the immediate neighbour of Naveen.

After positioning Guddu, only one position is left which will be occupied by the only person left i.e. Sunny.

Case 1)

Case 2)

Thus, in both the cases, Rahul is opposite to Sunny.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.
