Reasoning PYQs

Given: Seven boxes, namely, K, L, M, N, P, R, and S are arranged one above another in a vertical stack, but not necessarily in the same order.

1. The number of boxes placed above box M is exactly the same as the number of boxes placed below box M. 

2. There is exactly one box between M and R.

Here, we have 2 Cases, i.e., Case 1 and Case 2.

3. Box S is positioned immediately above box R. 

4. There are three boxes separating S and K.

5. The number of boxes lying between K and M is equal to the number of boxes lying between L and P. 

Now, we can eliminate Case 2.

6. Box P is not placed at the bottommost position.

This is our final arrangement,

Hence, the correct answer is Two.

3. Box S is positioned immediately above box R. 

4. There are three boxes separating S and K.

5. The number of boxes lying between K and M is equal to the number of boxes lying between L and P. 

Now, we can eliminate Case 2.

6. Box P is not placed at the bottommost position.

This is our final arrangement,

Except for R - P, in all other pairs, only one box is placed between them.

Hence, the correct answer is R - P.

Code ‘rt and cl’ corresponds to ‘country and develop’,

Code ‘lo’ corresponds to ‘plans’,

 Code ‘zt’ corresponds to ‘good’,

Code ‘dn’ corresponds to ‘economy’.

Thus the ‘rt cl lo zt dn’ stands for ‘develop country plans good economy’.

Thus, the code for ‘finance’ is ‘mn’.

Code for ‘make’ is ‘xy’.

Code for ‘good’ is ‘zt’.

Code for ‘plans’ is ‘lo’.

Code for ‘now’ is ‘fs’.

Hence, ‘xy zt lo fs’ represents the code for ‘make good plans now’.

Thus, code ‘cl’ stand for either ‘develop’ or ‘country’ in the given code language.

Thus ‘develop’ is coded as either ‘cl’ or ‘rt’.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows

Conclusions:

I. No number is digit → False (It is possible but not definite)

II. Some numbers are figures → True (As it is given in the statement that All numbers are figures, some numbers are figures is definitely true)

Thus, conclusion II follows.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as follows

Conclusions:

I. Some words are not book → True (As No book is letter given so that the word which are letter they will never be the book.)

II. No book is a word → False (As it is the definite conclusion and no direct relation given between book and word so the we cannot define it.)

Thus, only conclusion I follows.

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

Conclusions:

I. Some numbers are odd → True (As shown in the above diagram).

II. No odd is even → True (As in the given statement only numbers are odd and no other entity can become an odd).

Hence, both conclusions I and II follow.

We have drawn the figure according to the information given in the question,

Now, the distance between C6 and C8 = √\(({3^2} + {5^2})\) = 5.83 km

Hence, the distance between C6 and C8 is 5.83 km.

We have drawn the figure according to the information given in the question,

From the figure, the distance between C6 and C8 is 2 m.  

Hence, the distance between C6 and C8 is 2 m.

We have drawn the figure according to the information given in the question,

From the figure, it is clear that C1, C4 and C6 are collinear.

Hence, C1, C4 and C6 are collinear.

Given word:- CAPITULATE

The second letter is 'A', the fifth letter is 'T', the seventh letter is 'L' and the tenth letter is 'E'

The possible meaningful word can be formed by using the words A, T, L, E are Late, Tale and Teal.

Hence, the correct answer is X.

Given group of words:

WON DAD RAW BAT HAT

1. If in each of the given words, each of the consonants is changed to its previous letter and each vowel is changed to its next letter in the English alphabetical series, After the arrangement, the new words formed are:

Required arrangement: consonants → previous letter,  vowel → next letter 

At least one vowel after rearrangement is - 

WON → VPM

DAD → CBC

RAW → QBV

BAT → ABS

HAT → GBS

Thus, ABS is the newly formed word with at least one vowel in it.

Given the group of letters:

WON DAD RAW BAT HAT

The new words formed after the third letter in each of the words is changed:

WOO DAE RAX BAU HAU

Clearly, the word ‘RAX’ does not have its last letter as a vowel.

Given group of letters:

WON DAD RAW BAT HAT

If arranged as per the question the new words formed will be:

NOW DAD WAR TAB TAH

Thus, the only word ‘HAT’ will not form a meaningful word in the new arrangement.
