Reasoning PYQs

Given number: 8354671

According to the question, 

So, number of digits that appeared more than once in the new number thus formed → 7, 5 and 3 = Three

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

NEST - ESNT - TSEN

And,

GONE - ONGE - ENOG

Similarly,

Option 1) LIES - IELS - SEIL

​

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

Given series: (Left) ? > @ ^ @ \ ? + $ 6 7 \ 1 & @ 1 4 2 2 % 9 (Right)

According to the question,

Required condition: Symbol - Number - Another Number

(Left) ? > @ ^ @ \ ? + $ 6 7 \ 1 & @ 1 4 2 2 % 9 (Right)

Thus, there are two such numbers which are immediately preceded by a symbol and also immediately followed by another number.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

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

Conclusions:

I. Some socks are bins → Does not follow (As all teas are bins and no tea is a sock. So, it is possible but not definitely true)

II. All bins are socks → Does not follow (As all teas are bins and no tea is a sock. So, it is possible but not definitely true)

∴ Here, Neither conclusion (I) nor (II) follows.​

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Given:

Satish starts from Point Y and drives 19 km towards west.

He then takes a right turn, drives 10 km.

He then turns right and drives 11 km.

He takes a final right turn, drives 10 km and stops at Point Z.

Thus, Satish should drive 8 km (19 km - 11 km) in the east direction in order to reach Point Y again.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) HLF

Option 2) MQK

Option 3) KOI

Option 4) FJC

Thus, odd letter-cluster is FJC.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

Given: 

1) T is the daughter of A.

2. A is married to M.

3) M is the son of K.

4. K is married to J.

5. J is the father of D.

6. D is the brother of N.

7. G is the son of N.

Thus, K is T's father's mother.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1"

According to the question:

​

Thus, the code for ‘his’ is 'yg'.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

Given: A row of people all facing north

According to the question:

Rikshit rank from the right end → 31^st

Palak rank from the right end. → 32^nd

Huma's rank from the left end. → 10^th

Number of people between Palak and Rikshit = Palak rank from the right end - Rikshit rank from the right end - 1

= 32 - 31 - 1

= 0 people.

As it is given that Number of people between Palak and Rikshit = Number of people between Palak and Huma

∴ Number of people between Palak and Huma is also 0, Huma and Palak must be adjacent.

Huma's position from the right end = Palak's rank from the right end + 1

= 32 + 1

= 33^rd from the right.

Total persons = Huma's rank from the left end + Huma's rank from the right end - 1

= 10 + 33 - 1 → 42

Thus, there are 42 people in the row.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

Decoding signs:

Given: 46 A 2 C 21 D 8 B 3 = ?

46 A 2 C 21 D 8 B 3 = ? ⇒ 46 ÷ 2 + 21 - 8 × 3 = ?

⇒ 46 ÷ 2 + 21 - 8 × 3 = ?

⇒ 23 + 21 - 8 × 3 = ?

⇒ 23 + 21 - 24 = ?

⇒ 44 - 24 = ?

⇒ 20 = ?

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

Given: (Left) 324 523 643 136 441 (Right)

According to the question:

Thus, according to the final arrangement, in two number will the first digit be exactly divisible by the second digit.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

Given: Seven boxes, A, B, C, D, M, N and O, are kept one over the other but not necessarily in the same order.

1. No box is kept above B.

2. Only three boxes are kept between B and N.

3. A is kept immediately above N.

4. Only four boxes are kept between D and C.

6. Only C is kept below O.

7. Only one box is kept between D and A.

The only remaining box is M will be positioned at the only position left.

Thus, there are four boxes kept below M.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

According to the question:

​

Thus, the code for ‘F’ is '9'.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

Given: Seven people, A, B, C, T, U, V and W are sitting in a row, facing north.

1. Only two people sit to the right of C. 

2. Only two people sit between C and U.

3. V sits to the immediate left of C.

4. Only two people sit between A and V.

5. T sits to the immediate right of W.

The only remaining person is B who will be positioned at the only position left.

Thus, B sits at third position from the left end of the line.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

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

Conclusions:

I. No Broccolis are Cabbages → Follow (As all Cabbages are Peas and no Peas are Broccolis. As whole cabbages comes in peas which cannot be broccolis, therefore it is true.)

II. Some Broccolis are Cabbages → Does not follow (As all Cabbages are Peas and no Peas are Broccolis. So, it is possible but not definitely true)

∴ Here, Only conclusion (I) follows.​

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

​

​

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

GN-JQ-MP

And,

DK-GN-JM

Similarly,

Option 2) JQ-MT-PS

​

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

​

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

Given number: 7843651

According to the question, 

So, number of digits that appeared more than once in the new number thus formed → 5 and 3 = Two

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.
