Given equation: 200 * 13 * 9 * 200 * 25 = 75 

Option 1) +, ×, −, ÷

Mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs then:

⇒ 200 + 13 × 9 - 200 ÷ 25 = 75

⇒ 200 + 13 × 9 - 8 = 75

⇒ 200 + 117 - 8 = 75

⇒ 317 - 8 = 75

⇒ 309  ≠ 75

Option 2) ÷, −, ×, +

Mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs then:

⇒ 200 ÷ 13 - 9 × 200 + 25 = 75

⇒ 15.3 - 9 × 200 + 25 = 75

⇒ 15.3 - 1800 + 25 = 75

⇒ 40.3 - 1800 = 75

⇒ -1759.7  ≠ 75 

Option 3) ×, ÷, +, −

Mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs then:

⇒ 200 × 13 ÷ 9 + 200 - 25 = 75 

⇒ 200 × 1.4 + 200 - 25 = 75 

⇒ 280 + 200 - 25 = 75 

⇒ 480 - 25 = 75 

⇒ 455  ≠ 75 

Option 4) −, ×, −, ÷

Mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs then:

⇒ 200 - 13 × 9 - 200 ÷ 25 = 75 

⇒ 200 - 13 × 9 - 8 = 75 

⇒ 200 - 117 - 8 = 75 

⇒ 200 - 125 = 75 

⇒ 75 = 75 

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

Counting the triangles are there in the given figure:

 

Hence, the correct answer is "52".

The logic followed here is:

Hence, the correct answer is "POMP".

The logic followed here is:

Lines inside middle circle is increasing  by 1.

From figure 1 to 2 and figure 3 to 4:

Top left and Bottom right symbols are interchanging their position. Similarly Top right and Bottom left symbols are interchanging their position.

From figure 2 to 3 and figure 4 to 5:

All corner symbols are shifting their position in an anticlockwise direction.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Statements:

All cakes are candies.

No pastry is a candy.

The least possible Venn diagram is as follows:

Conclusions:

I. All pastries are cakes. - False (because All cakes are candies, No pastry is a candy. As there is no direct relation between them, so it can be possible but not definite)

II. Some cakes are pastries. - False (because All cakes are candies, No pastry is a candy. As there is no direct relation between them, so it can be possible but not definite)

Hence, the correct answer is "Neither conclusion I nor II follows".

The option figure which is embedded in the given figure:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Hence, the correct answer is "240".

The option figure which is embedded in the given figure:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The option figure in which the given figure is embedded:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: (1^st number ÷ 2) - 2 = 2^nd number.

Now,

For, 8 : 2

⇒ (8 ÷ 2) - 2 = 4 - 2 = 2.

For, 24 : 10

⇒ (24 ÷ 2) - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10.

Similarly, for 12 : ?

⇒ (12 ÷ 2) - 2 = 6 - 2 = 4.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given: Q, R, S, T, U and V were six doctors sitting around a circular table, facing the centre. They were equidistant from each other.

1. Q was to the immediate right of U.

2) S was to the immediate right of Q.

3) T was second to the left of Q.

4. R was exactly in between V and T.

So, V was sitting third to the right of U.

Hence, the correct answer is "V".

The paper look when unfolded:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The option figure in which the given figure is embedded:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Inner part of all the shape is shifting inside the another shape in a clockwise direction.

Two shapes are shifting their position in clockwise direction and two shapes remain same.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2"

The logic followed here is:

Figure rotates in an anticlockwise direction by 90° and line inside the circle is also rotating.

Number of lines outside of the figure is increasing by 1.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2"

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The figures will complete the pattern:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is: Sum of opposite letter's place value = Code.

‘PIG’ is written as ‘49’

‘HAT’ is written as ‘52’

Similarly, 'CAB’ will be written as:

Hence, the correct answer is "75".

Given equation: 12 * 5 * 9 * 54 * 9 = 1 

Option 1) ×, ×, ÷, − 

Mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs then:

⇒ 12 × 5 × 9 ÷ 54 - 9 = 1 

⇒ 10 - 9 = 1 

⇒ 1 = 1 

Option 2) +, ×, ÷, −

Mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs then:

⇒ 12 + 5 × 9 ÷ 54 - 9 = 1 

⇒ 12 + 5 × 0.17 - 9 = 1 

⇒ 12 + 0.83 - 9 = 1 

⇒ 12.83 - 9 = 1 

⇒ 3.83 ≠ 1 

Option 3) ×, ×, −, −

Mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs then:

⇒ 12 × 5 × 9 - 54 - 9 = 1 

⇒ 540 - 54 - 9 = 1 

⇒ 540 - 63 = 1

⇒ 477 ≠ 1

Option 4) ×, ×, ÷, +

Mathematical signs to sequentially replace the * signs then:

⇒ 12 × 5 × 9 ÷ 54 + 9 = 1 

⇒ 10 + 9 = 1 

⇒ 19 ≠ 1 

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

The option figure in which the given figure is embedded:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
