Question 1946

RRB Group D 2025• General Intelligence and Reasoning• General Intelligence and Reasoning

This question is based on the five, three-digit numbers given below.

(Left) 475 648 857 591 362 (Right)

(Example- 697 – First digit = 6, second digit = 9 and third digit = 7)

(

NOTE:

All operations to be done from left to right.)

If 1 is added to the third digit of every number, then how many numbers will become even?

AOption (a)
None
BOption (b)
Two
COption (c)
Three
DOption (d)
One

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Three

Why this answer is correct

The five numbers are: 475, 648, 857, 591, and 362.

Following the instruction to add 1 to the third digit of every number:

475 becomes 476. The third digit is now 6, which is an even number.
648 becomes 649. The third digit is now 9, which is an odd number.
857 becomes 858. The third digit is now 8, which is an even number.
591 becomes 592. The third digit is now 2, which is an even number.
362 becomes 363. The third digit is now 3, which is an odd number.

A number is even if its last (third) digit is even. The numbers with an even third digit are 476, 858, and 592.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"

In the following number-pairs, the second number is obtained by applying certain mathematical operations to the first number. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.

(

NOTE:

Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)

Why this answer is correct

BODMAS Table:

Decoding the given information:

Alphabet	+	−	×	÷
Meaning	−	+	÷	×

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

⇒ 24 × 19 − 84 ÷ 7 + 127 = ?

⇒ 456 − 12 + 127 = ?

⇒ 444 + 127 = ?

⇒ 571

Hence, the correct option is "Option 1".

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.

(

NOTE:

Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits.

BOption (b)
(74, 88, 304)
COption (c)
(91, 65, 310)
DOption (d)
(56, 98, 312)

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

(45, 89, 268)

Why this answer is correct

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Third Number = (First Number + Second Number) × 2.

For, (25, 72, 194)

⇒ 25 + 72 = 97

⇒ 97 × 2 = 194

For, (32, 80, 224)

⇒ 32 + 80 = 112

⇒ 112 × 2 = 224

Now, checking the options using the same pattern:

Option 1) (45, 89, 268)

⇒ 45 + 89 = 134

⇒ 134 × 2 = 268

Option 2) (74, 88, 304)

⇒ 74 + 88 = 162

⇒ 162 × 2 = 324 ≠ 304

Option 3) (91, 65, 310)

⇒ 91 + 65 = 156

⇒ 156 × 2 = 312 ≠ 310

Option 4) (56, 98, 312)

⇒ 56 + 98 = 154

⇒ 154 × 2 = 308 ≠ 312

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

AOption (a)
60
BOption (b)

COption (c)
55
DOption (d)
58

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Why this answer is correct

Given:

OAVY is coded as 56 and SIXT is coded as 47

Logic: (sum of reverse positions) + 11

Here,

OAVY → O(12) + A(26) + V(5) + Y(2) = 45 → 45 + 11 = 56

SIXT → S(8) + I(18) + X(3) + T(7) = 36 → 36 + 11 = 47

Now, Apply to TMZB

T(7) + M(14) + Z(1) + B(25) = 47

Code = 47 + 11 = 58

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.
