Reasoning PYQs

According to the given condition the series becomes:

Sum of the digits that are second from the left and second from the right = 

6+ 4 = 10.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"

According to the given condition the series becomes:

 

2 is added in the third digit of each number, 

Numbers thus formed will be odd numbers— 259, 753 .

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2"

Given series: (Left) 2 % / < 9 $ / % 6 * 4 5 8 # ? > 2 2 + 2 \ (Right)

According to the question, such symbols are there, each of which is immediately preceded by a number and also immediately followed by another symbol.

Required condition: Number - Symbol - another symbol.

(Left) 2 % / < 9 $ / % 6 * 4 5 8 # ? > 2 2 + 2 \ (Right)

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1"

Given number: '95423671'

1 is subtracted from each even digit 

sum of the digits that are second from the left and third from the right. 

1 + 5 = 6.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"

Given: Seven boxes A, B, C, D, E, F and G are kept one over the other but not necessarily in the same order.

• Only four boxes are kept between C and F.

• Only A is kept above C.

• Only two boxes are kept between D and E.

• G is kept immediately above B.

• E is not kept immediately above G

• The Final Arrangemnt is

• | A | | --- | | C | | D | | G | | B | | E | | F |

• 3  boxes are kept above G.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2"

Given:

• Harini starts from Point Y and drives 7 km towards the south.
• She then takes a left turn, drives 14 km.
• She then turns left and drives 7 km.
• She takes a final left turn, drives 18 km and stops at Point Z

The Final Diagram , 

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4"

Seven boxes F, G, H, I, K, L, and O are kept one over the other but not necessarily in the same order.

• Only three boxes are kept below H.
• Only two boxes are kept between H and O.
• Only L is kept above G.
• F is kept at some place below I and at some place above K

The Final Diagram,

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4"

The logic followed here is:

Similarly,

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1"

L, M, N, O, Q, R and S are sitting around a circular table, facing the centre of the table.

• Only one person sits between Q and S when counted from the right of Q.
• Only one person sits between S and N. Only one person sits between Q and R.
• Only two people sit between L and N.
• Only one person sits between O and R.

The final arrangement is:

S sits third to the right of M.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1"

Given:

BEST’ is coded as ‘3527’.

‘EARN’ is coded as ‘1246’.

So, 

B E S T’ - ‘ 3 5 2 7’.

‘E A R N’ - ‘1 2 4 6’.

The code for E is 2.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1"

The logic followed here is:

thus, "6, 210" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 1".

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

Only 1 person sits to the left of E.

Only 2 people sit between E and F.

C sits immediately to the right of D.

G sits immediately to the left of A.

Only 1 person sits between F and D.

People between them are D, C, F and G = 4 people.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

BODMAS Table: 

Decoding the given information:

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

⇒ 163 × 4 + 125 ÷ 5 − 19 = ?

⇒ 652 + 25 − 19 = ?

⇒ 677 − 19 = ?

⇒ 658

Hence, the correct option is "Option 3".

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

Now,

Odd numbers, which are immediately preceded by an odd number and also immediately followed by an odd number.

So, Needed pattern is: Odd - Odd - Odd

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

1 5 1 , 5 1 5, and 1 5 7 

So, total valid odd numbers = 3

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

BODMAS Table: 

Decoding the given information:

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

⇒ 7 × 2 − 45 ÷ 3 + 11 = ?

⇒ 14 − 15 + 11 = ?

⇒ 25 − 15 = ?

⇒ 10

Hence, the correct option is "Option 2".

Given: Seven boxes L, M, N, O, Q, R and S are kept one over the other but not necessarily in the same order.

Q is kept second from the bottom.

Only three boxes are kept between Q and S.

R is kept at one of the positions below Q.

Only N is kept between S and L.

Only two boxes are kept between L and O.

Boxes between M and S → L, N

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

Given:

Park is at reference point (0, 0)

School is 18 km North of Park → (0, 18)

Hospital is 21 km West of School → (-21, 18)

Restaurant is 21 km West of Park → (-21, 0)

According to the given information,

 

So, Restaurant is 18 km directly South of Hospital.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

Given numbers: 192, 574, 563, 189, 567

Arranging in descending order: 574, 567, 563, 192, 189

Highest number = 574

→ Third digit = 4

Lowest number = 189

→ Second digit = 8

Sum = 4 + 8 = 12

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Given:

Ujwala is 5^th from the right in a row of 25 people.

Siya sits 3^rd to the left of Ujwala.

Ujwala’s position from right = 5

Siya is 3^rd to the left of Ujwala → Siya’s position from right = 5 + 3 = 8

Total number of people = 25

Siya’s position from left = 25 − 8 + 1 = 18

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "19" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 1".
