Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is:

1. First box series →

The first column elements and first element second column shift anticlockwise subsequently.

The rest of the elements shift clockwise subsequently.

2) Second box series →

The left diagonal elements shift anticlockwise subsequently.

The rest of the elements shift clockwise subsequently.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is :-

From the given two different cubes the adjacent sides are as shown below :

As 5 and 4 are common on both the dice, it is clear that 3 will be opposite to it 2.

So, the opposite side of "2" will be side "3".

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The figure which when put in place of '?' will logically complete the pattern is shown below:

Thus, option Figure 2 will logically complete the pattern given.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

Given: 156 ÷ 12 − 4 × 65 + 87 = 74

According to the question, after interchanging the signs:

Option 1): + and −

156 ÷ 12 − 4 × 65 + 87 = 74 ⇒ 156 ÷ 12 + 4 × 65 − 87 = 74

⇒ 156 ÷ 12 + 4 × 65 − 87 = 74

⇒ 13 + 4 × 65 − 87 = 74

⇒ 13 + 260 − 87 = 74

⇒ 273 − 87 = 74

⇒ 186 ≠ 74 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  2): = and ×

156 ÷ 12 − 4 × 65 + 87 = 74 ⇒ 156 ÷ 12 − 4 = 65 + 87 × 74

⇒ 156 ÷ 12 − 4 = 65 + 87 × 74

⇒ 13 − 4 = 65 + 6438

⇒ 9 ≠ 6503 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  3): × and −

156 ÷ 12 − 4 × 65 + 87 = 74 ⇒ 156 ÷ 12 × 4 − 65 + 87 = 74

⇒ 156 ÷ 12 × 4 − 65 + 87 = 74

⇒ 13 × 4 − 65 + 87 = 74

⇒ 52 + 87 − 65 = 74

⇒ 139 − 65 = 74

⇒ 74 = 74 (LHS = RHS)

Option  4): + and =

156 ÷ 12 − 4 × 65 + 87 = 74 ⇒ 156 ÷ 12 − 4 × 65 = 87 + 74

⇒ 156 ÷ 12 − 4 × 65 = 87 + 74

⇒ 13 − 4 × 65 = 161

⇒ 13 − 260 = 161

⇒ 247 ≠ 161 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

Given: Six friends - A, B, C, D, E, and F - were sitting around a circular table, facing the center. They were seated equidistant from each other.

1. A was seated third to the right of B.

2. E was seated immediately to the left of D.

3. A was seated exactly between F and D.

After positioning E, F and D only one position is left which will be occupied by the only person left i.e. C.

Thus, according to the final arrangement, C was seated third to the left of D.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is: 

Logic: (1^st number) × 3 + 3^rd number = 2^nd number.

Now,

For (39, 130, 13):

⇒ 39 × 3 + 13

⇒ 117 + 13 = 130 = 2^nd number

For (45, 150, 15)

⇒ 45 × 3 + 15

⇒ 135 + 15 = 150 = 2^nd number

Similarly, for Option 3: (35, 115, 10)

⇒ 35 × 3 + 10

⇒ 105 + 10 = 115 = 2^nd number

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

The logic followed here is:

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

1. First box series →

The first and second column elements shift clockwise subsequently.

No change in the rest of the elements.

2) Second box series →

The first row elements shift clockwise subsequently.

No change in the rest of the elements.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

‘WAR’ is written as ‘39’

And,

‘ZIP’ is written as ‘30’

Similarly,

‘YES’ is written as

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is :-

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

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

Opposite pairs:

5 → 2

1 → 4

3 → 6

So, the opposite side of "4" will be side "1".

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The image embedded in the given figure is as shown below :

∴ Here, the given figure is embedded in the option Figure 3.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

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

Conclusions:

Ⅰ. Some shoes are jackets → Follow (As some shoes are shirts and all shirts are jackets. As whole shirts comes in jackets and has some part common with shoes, therefore it is true.)

Ⅱ. All jackets are shoes → Does not follow (As some shoes are shirts and all shirts are jackets.. As whole shirts comes in jackets and has some part common with shoes, therefore it is possible but not definite.)

∴ Here, ​Only conclusion I follows.​

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: (1^st number × 4) + 1 = 2^nd number.

Now,

For, 17 : 69

⇒ (17 × 4) + 1 = 68 + 1 = 69.

For, 21 : 85

⇒ (21 × 4) + 1 = 84 + 1 = 85.

Similarly, for ? ∶ 109

⇒ (27 × 4) + 1 = 108 + 1 = 109.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

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

1) As there are marked 9 parts (same shape), therefore (9 × 2) = 18 triangles

2) Number of triangles = 3

3) Number of triangles = 9

Thus, as marked there are a total of (18 + 3 + 9) = 30 triangles in the given figure.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is :-

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

As B is common on both the dice II and III, it is clear that A, C, E, and F are adjacent to it, and the remaining i.e. D will be opposite to it.

Opposite pairs:

C → E

A → F

B → D

So, the opposite side of "D" will be side "B".

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

YDVJ : PHMN

And,

FJBE : WNSI

Similarly,

PXYS : ?

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The image embedded in the given figure is as shown below :

∴ Here, the option figure 3 is embedded in the given figure.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is :-

From the given two different cubes the adjacent sides are as shown below :

As D is common on both the dice, it is clear that B, F, C, and A are adjacent to it, and the remaining i.e., E will be opposite to it.

Opposite pairs:

F → C

B → A

D → E

So, the opposite side of "E" will be side "D".

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
