Reasoning PYQs

Given:

Mr. Akai starts from Point A and drives 9 km towards the west.

He then takes a left turn and drives 9 km.

He again takes a left turn and drives 17 km.

He then takes a left turn and drives 18 km.

Finally, he takes a left turn and drives 8 km and stops at Point P.

So, To reach Point A again, Mr. Akai must drive 9 km towards the south.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) SWX

Option 2) ZEE

Option 3) HLM

Option 4) UYZ

Here, ZEE is odd from the given options because it does not follow the uniform +4, +1 pattern.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

For, AZXT → XWUQ

Now, VUSO → SRPL

Now, applying the same logic for TSQM:

So, TSQM → QPNJ

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "457" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

thus, "112" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: First number = (Second number) × (Third number)

35 - 7 - 5

⇒ 7 × 5 = 35

60 - 6 - 10

⇒ 6 × 10 = 60

Now, checking the options:

Option 1) (81 - 7 - 8)

⇒ 7 × 8 = 56 (not 81)

Option 2) (40 - 5 - 9)

⇒ 5 × 9 = 45 (not 40)

Option 3) (63 - 7 - 9)

⇒ 7 × 9 = 63

Option 4) (12 - 4 - 2)

⇒ 4 × 2 = 8 (not 12)

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

The logic followed here is:

Given:

‘what are those’ → np tr sq

‘take those gifts’ → hk my tr

So, those → tr

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) SV – WZ

Option 2) DG – HK

Option 3) UX – XD

Option 4) FI – JM

Here, UX – XD is odd from the given options because it does not follow the uniform +3, +1, +3 pattern.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given: (Left) 7, 5, 2, 4, 9, 5, 3, 8, 9, 1, 2, 6, 6, 6, 8, 4, 5, 3, 9, 1, 7, 9, 8, 6, 3, 6, 9 (Right)

Now,

We need to identify even numbers that are immediately preceded by an odd number and immediately followed by an even number.

So, the required condition is: Odd Number – Even Number – Even Number

(Left) 7, 5, 2, 4, 9, 5, 3, 8, 9, 1, 2, 6, 6, 6, 8, 4, 5, 3, 9, 1, 7, 9, 8, 6, 3, 6, 9 (Right)

Total even numbers satisfying the condition = 3

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given: M, N, O, P, Q and R are sitting around a circular table facing the centre.

P is an immediate neighbour of both N and Q.

M is sitting second to the right of Q.

R is an immediate neighbour of both M and N.

 

Therefore, Q is immediate right of P.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Given: (Left) 1 7 6 2 9 4 3 8 5 2 6 3 7 8 9 2 5 1 4 7 6 3 2 9 5 4 1 8 (Right)

Now,

We need to identify odd digits that are immediately preceded by an even digit and immediately followed by an odd digit.

So, the required condition is: Even Digit – Odd Digit – Odd Digit

(Left) 1 7 6 2 9 4 3 8 5 2 6 3 7 8 9 2 5 1 4 7 6 3 2 9 5 4 1 8 (Right)

Total odd digits satisfying the condition = 3

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

For, YCG → FJN

Now, OSW → VZD

Now, checking the options:

Option 1) GJM → NRV

Option 2) GKO → NRV

Option 3) GKO → MRU

Option 4) GJM → MQU

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

Given: Six boxes L, M, N, O, P and Q are arranged one over the other from top to bottom (Position 6 to Position 1).

Q is placed at the topmost position.

L is placed second from the bottom.

M is immediately above P and N is immediately below P (forming M - P - N).

Therefore, box O is placed at the bottommost position.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

BODMAS Table: 

Given equation: 14 P 4 S (16 Q 4) P 9 R (60 Q 6) P 7 S 20 = ?

Now, replacing the symbols as:

 

⇒ 14 × 4 + (16 ÷ 4) × 9 − (60 ÷ 6) × 7 + 20 = ?

⇒ 56 + 4 × 9 − 10 × 7 + 20 = ?

⇒ 56 + 36 − 70 + 20 = ?

⇒ 92 − 70 + 20 = ?

⇒ 22 + 20 = ?

⇒ 42

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

So, 'JHJ 17' will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

For, RIVK → BSFU

Now, FWJY → PGTI

Now, applying the same logic for JANC:

So, JANC → TKXM

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "101" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Given:

‘cute red flowers’ → by gh cf

‘nice red dress’ → jk bt gh

So, red → gh

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

Family Chart:

Given: D * R ± A ₹ C # O

It means: D is the daughter of R, R is the wife of A, A is the father of C, C is the brother of O.

Here, D is related to O as Sister

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

Given

Statements:

Some bells are pots.

All pots are machines.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:

Conclusions:

I. Some bells are machines - Follows (Since some bells are pots and all pots are machines, those bells are also machines).

II. All machines are pots - Does not follow (All pots are machines does not mean all machines are pots).

So, only conclusion I follows.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.
