Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) NR – OV

Option 2) HL – JN

Option 3) MQ – OS

Option 4) TX – VZ

Here, NR – OV is odd from the given options.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given

Statements:

All wheels are cars.

All wheels are buses.

All buses are trucks.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:

Conclusions:

I. All wheels are trucks – Follows​ (All wheels are buses and all buses are trucks, so all wheels are trucks).

II. Some buses are cars – Follows​  (Wheels are common to both buses and cars, so some buses are cars).

So, both conclusion I and conclusion II follow.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

thus, "26" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Code = Sum of the reverse positional values of the letters (A=26, B=25 … Z=1) + 16

Given:

OXGP → O(12) + X(3) + G(20) + P(11) = 46

Code = 46 + 16 = 62

DSNL → D(23) + S(8) + N(13) + L(15) = 59

Code = 59 + 16 = 75

Now,

VBQT → V(5) + B(25) + Q(10) + T(7) = 47

Code = 47 + 16 = 63

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

Given: J, K, L, M, N, O and P are sitting in a straight row facing north.

Only two people sit to the right of O.

Only three people sit between N and O.

P sits second to the left of J.

P is not an immediate neighbour of N.

L sits to the immediate left of M.

Now, The extreme right end is position 7 → K

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Given: 745, 329, 157, 278, 381

Now, the third digit of the highest number and the second digit of the lowest number, then add them.

Highest number = 745

Third digit of highest number = 5

Lowest number = 157

Second digit of lowest number = 5

So, 5 + 5 = 10

Hence, the correct answer is Opttion 4.

The logic followed here is:

For SANK - NSAK - KNAS

 

Now, for KITE - TKIE - ETIK

Now, applying the same logic to the options:

Option 1: ZONE → NZOE → ONEZ

Option 2: SWAT → WSAT → TWAS

This follows the same logic.

Option 3: FIRM → RFIM → MRIF

Option 4: DOLE → DLOE → ELOD

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given:

Roshan is 6^th from the left end and Disha sits 29 places to the right of Roshan in a row of 52 students.

Here,

Disha’s position from the left end = 6 + 29 = 35^th

Now, Disha’s position from the right end = 52 − 35 + 1 = 18^th

So, Disha is 18^th from the right end.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Given: A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting in a row facing north.

Only two people sit to the left of A.

Only one person sits between B and C.

F sits to the immediate left of A.

B sits to the immediate right of E.

C sits third to the right of D.

Now, The extreme left end is position 1 → D

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Given:

He then takes a left turn, drives 75 km,

turns right and drives 33 km.

He then takes a right turn

and drives 37 km.

He takes a right turn, drives 62 km to stop at Point Z

​

So, To reach back to Point Y, he must move 38 km towards the West

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

BODMAS Table: 

Decoding the given information:

 

Now, replacing the sign from left to right using BODMAS Rule, we get:

⇒ 70 + 45 ÷ 5 + 40 × 4 − 48 = ?

⇒ 70 + 9 + 160 − 48 = ?

⇒ 239 − 48 = ?

⇒ 191

Hence, the correct option is "Option 1".

Given

Statements:

No pianos are guitars.

Some guitars are violins.

All violins are drums.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:

Conclusions:

I. No pianos are violins – Does not follow (There is no direct restriction between pianos and violins, so overlap is possible).

II. Some guitars are drums – Follows​  (Some guitars are violins and all violins are drums, so that overlapping part of guitars must be drums).

So, only conclusion II follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

For LNP → MOQ

Now, for MOQ → NPR

Now, applying the same logic for the given options:

Option 1: RST → RTV

Option 2: RST → SUW

Option 3: RTV → RUV

Option 4: RTV → SUW

Hence, RTV → SUW follows the same logic.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

So, the missing term = XYO75

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "123" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Given number: 12568436

Logic: Arrange the digits in ascending order from left to right and then find the required digits.

Original number: 1 2 5 6 8 4 3 6

Arranged in ascending order: 1 2 3 4 5 6 6 8

Now,

3^rd digit from left = 3

3^rd digit from right = 6

Sum = 3 + 6 = 9

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

The logic followed here is:

So, the missing term = PDQ15

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "568" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 4".

BODMAS Table: 

Decoding the given information:

Now, replacing the sign from left to right using BODMAS Rule, we get:

⇒ 8 × 2 − 15 ÷ 5 + 8 = ? − 5

⇒ 16 − 3 + 8 = ? − 5

⇒ 13 + 8 = ? − 5

⇒ 21 = ? − 5

⇒ ? = 21 + 5

⇒ ? = 26

Hence, the correct option is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Given:

‘drinking is dangerous’ → cd pk os

‘avoid dangerous habit’ → os mp ls

So, the code for dangerous = os.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3..
