Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is:

For, VANE → DIVM

For, BGTK → JOBS

Now, applying the same pattern to ZERI:

So, ZERI → HMZQ

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

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

B sits sixth from the left end of the row.

Only two people sit to the left of D.

F sits to the right of A but left of D.

E sits third to the left of G.

So, only 1 person sits between C and G.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

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

Only six people sit to the left of F.

D sits fourth from the right end of the row.

Only two people sit between A and D.

G is the immediate neighbour of C and F.

B does not sit to the left of E.

Now, people between E and G: B, D, C → 3 people

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

thus, "168" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 4".

Given:

“bees buzz close” → “zd st cq”

 “hear bees hum” → “cq ge vm”

So, the code for bees = cq

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

So, 'KG9' will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

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

Now,

We need to find an even digit which is immediately preceded by an odd digit and immediately followed by an even digit.

So, Needed pattern is: Odd - Even - Even.

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

Total valid even digits satisfying the condition = 3.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

Given number: 5346188

Logic:

Odd digits → +3

Even digits → −4

Original number: 5 3 4 6 1 8 8

New number formed: 8 6 0 2 4 4 4 → 8602444

Now, sum: 0 + 2 = 2

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Family Chart:

Decoding the Symbols:

Given: L @ O # V + E × R

It means: L is the father of O, O is the brother of V, V is the sister of E, and E is the wife of R.

Thus,  L is R’s wife’s father.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is based on the alphabetical position pattern:

Option 1: GHI

Option 2: TVV

Option 3: JKL

Option 4: DEF

Thus, TVV does not follow the pattern of consecutive alphabetical letters.

Hence, the odd one out is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

So, 'DHG 40' will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given Statements:

All rods are hooks.

Some hooks are baits.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is:

Conclusions:

I. All rods are baits  → Does not follow (Rods are inside hooks, and only some hooks are baits; no definite inclusion or overlap of rods with baits is given.)

II. Some baits are rods → Does not follow  (There is no established intersection between rods and baits.)

So, neither conclusion I nor II follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is based on the alphabetical position pattern:

Option 1: SK - XP

Option 2: DY - IC

Option 3: EZ - JE

Option 4: JQ - OV

Thus, DY - IC does not follow this uniform shift.

Hence, the odd one out is Option 2.

Given:

 “she is lovely” → “kl pc cp”

“lovely paint here” → “lk cp no”

So, the code for lovely = cp

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "91" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

For, KGLO → QMRU

For, NJOR → TPUX

Now, applying the same pattern to EAFI:

So, EAFI → KGLO

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Given: (Left) / 8 & + ^ 1 + < # @ ^ \ 2 # $ 8 9 * 7 2 $ (Right)

Now,

We need to find numbers that are immediately preceded by a symbol and immediately followed by a symbol.

So, Needed pattern is: Symbol - Number - Symbol.

(Left) / 8 & + ^ 1 + < # @ ^ \ 2 # $ 8 9 * 7 2 $ (Right)

Total valid numbers satisfying the condition = 3.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

The logic followed here is:

Given sequence: 324, 286, 472, 539, 731

Logic: Arrange the numbers in ascending order and compare their positions with the original sequence.

Arranging in ascending order: 286, 324, 472, 539, 731

Numbers that remain in the same position: 472, 539, 731

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

Family Chart:

Decoding the Symbols:

Given: M + N x O - P ÷ Q

It means: M is the father of N, N is the sister of O, O is the brother of P, and P is the wife of Q.

Thus, M is Q’s wife’s father.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given:

Andy’s rank from the top = 11^th, rank from the bottom = 15^th.

Total number of students = 11 + 15 – 1 = 25.

So, there are 25 students in the class.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
