Reasoning PYQs

The least possible Venn Diagram for the given statements will be as follows,

I. All Chairs are Table → False (It is possible, but not definite.)

II. Some Tables are Bench → False (It is possible, but not definite, as no direct relationship between the two is given).

Hence, Neither I nor II follows.

The least possible Venn Diagram for the given statements will be as follows,

I. No Paint are Tall → True (As all paint are wall and no wall is tall. Thus, No paint are tall.)

II. Some Paint are Tall → False (This is definitely not true)

Hence, ‘Only I follows’ is the correct answer.

Given words are: EDC     TGF     VBJ     QAL     KJU

Odd positions: 1^st and 3^rd positions

On interchanging both alphabets of each word present at odd positions

CDE     FGT     JBV     LAQ     UJK

Clearly, only one word, CDE ending with vowel will be formed.

Hence, only one word will be formed.

Note:

In English alphabetical series there are 5 vowels i.e. A, E, I, O, U else all are consonants.

Given words are: EDC     TGF     VBJ     QAL     KJU

On changing the first and last alphabet of each word to the previous alphabet and the middle alphabet to its next alphabet in the English alphabetical series:

DEB     SHE     UCI     PBK     JKT

Clearly, two words PBK and JKT having only consonants will be formed.

Hence, two words will be formed.

Note:

In English alphabetical series there are 5 vowels i.e. A, E, I, O, U else all are consonants.

Given words are: EDC     TGF     VBJ     QAL     KJU

On arranging alphabets within the word in English alphabetical order:

CDE     FGT     BJV     ALQ     JKU

Clearly, three words, FGT, BJV and ALQ will end with a consonant.

Note:

In English alphabetical series there are 5 vowels i.e. A, E, I, O, U else all are

Hence, three words will end with a consonant.

Given words are: EDC     TGF     VBJ     QAL     KJU

The second word from the left is TGF and its first letter is T

First word from the right is KJU and its second letter is J

There are nine letters between J and T in the English alphabetical series, namely, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S.

Hence, nine is the correct answer.

Given

Statements:

A ≥ B ≥ C = D; D ≥ E < F < G

On combining: A ≥ B ≥ C = D ≥ E < F < G

Conclusion:

I. B > E → False (As A ≥ B ≥ C = D ≥ E < F < G → B ≥ E. So, it is false)

II. E = B → False (As A ≥ B ≥ C = D ≥ E < F < G → B ≥ E. So, it is false)

As B ≥ E → B > E or E = B

Hence, Either I or II follows.

**Given

Statement:

** E ≥ W = A < B ≤ S ≤ T < X

Conclusions: 

I. E > T → False (As E ≥ W = A < B ≤ S ≤ T there is no relation between E and T because of the opposite sign between E and T).

II. A = X → False (As A < B ≤ S ≤ T < X → A < X. So, it is false).

Hence, Neither I nor II follows.

Given

Statement:

M > N > O > P > Q < A = B < F

Conclusions:

I. M < A → False (As M > N > O > P > Q < A = B < F, there is no relation between M and A because the signs between M and A are opposite. So, it is false).

II. N < Q → False (As M > N > O > P > Q < A = B < F → N > Q. So, it is false).

Hence, Neither I nor II follows.

Given number is 724536986

Now we add 1 in all even digits and subtract 1 from all odd digits.

After the arrangement we get:

635427897

The 5^th digit from the right end is 2 and the 4^th digit from the left end is 4. so, the sum is 4 + 2 = 6

Hence, the correct answer is 6.

The first, third, and eighth letters of the word PREDOMINANT are P, E, and N respectively. 

1^st letter → P,   3^rd letter → E, and 8^th letter → N

So, PEN is a meaningful word.

Hence, E is the second letter from the right end.

People: A, B, C, D, E, F and G.

1. A sits second to the left of D.

2. E is third to the right of D.

3. C sits third to the right of G, who is not an immediate neighbour of E.

Case1:

Case 2:

4. B sits second to the right of G.

In Case 2, the above conditions are not satisfied in this case and thus eliminated.

The remaining F is between E and A.

The final arrangement will be:

Hence, A sits second right of E.

People: A, B, C, D, E, F and G.

2. E is third to the right of D.

3. C sits third to the right of G, who is not an immediate neighbour of E.

Case1:

Case 2:

4. B sits second to the right of G.

In Case 2, the above conditions are not satisfied in this case and thus eliminated.

The remaining F is between E and A.

The final arrangement will be:

Hence, A is third to the right of C.

People: A, B, C, D, E, F and G.

Case1:

Case 2:

4. B sits second to the right of G.

In Case 2, the above conditions are not satisfied in this case and thus eliminated.

The remaining F is between E and A.

The final arrangement will be:

Hence, E is third to the left of G.

People: A, B, C, D, E, F and G.

2. E is third to the right of D.

3. C sits third to the right of G, who is not an immediate neighbour of E.

Case1:

Case 2:

4. B sits second to the right of G.

In Case 2, the above conditions are not satisfied in this case and thus eliminated.

The remaining F is between E and A.

The final arrangement will be:

If E and G interchanges their position:

Hence, G is third right of D.

People: A, B, C, D, E, F and G.

1. A sits second to the left of D.

2. E is third to the right of D.

3. C sits third to the right of G, who is not an immediate neighbour of E.

Case1:

Case 2:

4. B sits second to the right of G.

In Case 2, the above conditions are not satisfied in this case and thus eliminated.

The remaining F is between E and A.

The final arrangement will be:

In all except CB, the second person is sitting to the immediate right of first one. In CB, B is sitting to the immediate left of C.

Hence, B is sitting immediate left of C.

The alphabets are positioned in the following order:

Given word:  REMEMBER

The given word can be represented as follows:

Thus, there is one pair → Forward: MR.

Hence, one is the correct answer.
