Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is:

1) The whole element is rotated 90º clockwise and alternately flipped vertically and horizontally.

2. Eliminated half part of '

' element in each box subsequently.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

​‘LENGTH’ is written as ‘QVOTIS’

And,

'REGARD' is written as 'KVVZKW'

Similarly,

‘NATURE’ is written as

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

Alternate Method

The logic followed here is:

1. Center element → The number of lines is increasing subsequently.

2. First box series → The elements at the corners interchange positions diagonally.

3. Second box series → The elements at the corners shift anticlockwise.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

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

∴ Here, the option figure 1 is embedded in the given figure.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

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 correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

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

Thus, option Figure 2 will look like the paper when unfolded.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

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

Conclusions:

1. No gum is a key → Does not follow (As some keys are blades and no blade is a gum. As no direct relation is given between keys and blades, therefore it is false)
2. No blade is a lock → Does not follow (As some locks are keys and some keys are blades. As no direct relation is given between blade and lock, therefore it is false.)
3. Some keys are locks → Follow (As some locks are keys. As some part of locks is common with keys, therefore it is true.)

∴ Here, Only conclusion 3 follows.​

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is :-

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

As L is common on both the dices I and III, it is clear that J, K, O, and M are adjacent to it, and the remaining i.e. N will be opposite to it.

Opposite pairs:

K → M

J → O

L → N

So, the opposite side of "N" will be side "L".

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

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

​

∴ Here, the given figure is embedded in the option figure 1.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given: 111 * 87 * 78 * 3 * 25 * 2

According to the question, after replacing the signs:

Option 1) − + ÷ = ×

111 * 87 * 78 * 3 * 25 * 2 ⇒ 111 - 87 + 78 ÷ 3 = 25 × 2

⇒ 111 - 87 + 78 ÷ 3 = 25 × 2

⇒ 111 + 26 - 87 = 50

⇒ 137 - 87 = 50

⇒ 50 = 50 (LHS = RHS)

Option  2) − ÷ = × +

111 * 87 * 78 * 3 * 25 * 2 ⇒ 111 - 87 ÷ 78 = 3 × 25 + 2

⇒ 111 - 87 ÷ 78 = 3 × 25 + 2

⇒ 111 - 1.11 = 75 + 2

⇒ 109.89 ≠ 79 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  3) − + ÷ × =

111 * 87 * 78 * 3 * 25 * 2 ⇒ 111 - 87 + 78 ÷ 3 × 25 = 2

⇒ 111 - 87 + 78 ÷ 3 × 25 = 2

⇒ 111 - 87 + 26 × 25 = 2

⇒ 111 + 650 - 87 = 2

⇒ 761 - 87 = 2

⇒ 674 ≠ 2 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  4) − ÷ + × =

111 * 87 * 78 * 3 * 25 * 2 ⇒ 111 - 87 ÷ 78 + 3 × 25 = 2

⇒ 111 - 87 ÷ 78 + 3 × 25 = 2

⇒ 111 - 1.11 + 3 × 25 = 2

⇒ 111 + 75 - 1.11 = 2

⇒ 186 - 1.11 = 2

⇒ 184.89 ≠ 2 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

Given: Abhay, Bala, Chan, Dev, Emran, Fanny and Garry are 7 friends sitting around a circular table.

Only five of them are facing the centre.

1. Chan is sitting third to the left of Dev and both are facing the centre.

2. Emran is the neighbour of neither Chan nor Dev.

3. The one who is sitting exactly between Dev and Fanny is not facing the centre.

4. One of the immediate neighbours of Bala is not facing the centre.

5. Garry is sitting third to the right of Abhay and is facing the centre.

Thus, according to the final arrangement, Emran is not sitting facing the centre i.e. is facing outside.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The logic follows here:

Given: 30 ∶ 68

30 = 3³ + 3

68 = 4³ + 4

And, 10 ∶ 30 

10 = 23 + 2

30 = 33 + 3

Similarity, ? ∶ 222

130 = 53 + 5

222 = 63 + 6

Hence, the correct answer is "Option (2)".

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

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

1. Number of triangles = \({n(n + 2)(2n + 1)\over 8}\) , Where; n = 4 (number of triangles at the baseline)

= \({4(4 + 2)(2 \times 4 + 1)\over 8}\)

= \({4(6)(8 + 1)\over 8}\)

= \({4 \times 6 \times 9\over 8}\)

= 27

2) Number of triangles = 4

Thus, there are a total of (27 + 4) = 31 triangles.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

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

∴ Here, the option figure 4 is embedded in the given figure.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Groups of animals

Here,

Apes : Shrewdness → Shrewdness is a group of apes.

Similarly,

Bears : Sleuth → Sleuth is a group of bears.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".
