Reasoning PYQs

Given: A, B, D, J, O, T, and Z are sitting around a circular table facing the center.

1. J sits third to the left of B. 2. A sits to the immediate right of B. 3. A sits second to the left of O

4. Only two people sit between O and D when counted from the left of D. 5. Z is an immediate neighbor of J.Only one place is vacant and one person is left. So, 

The final Arrangement is, 

One people sit between O and Z when counted from the right of O.

Hence, "Option - (3)" is the correct answer.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is:

Conclusions:

(I) Some vehicles are tools. - Does not follow (As there is no direct relation between vehicles and tools, maybe it is possible but not definite. Hence, it is false. 

(II) All tools are machines. - Does not follow  ( Some machine are tools and some tools are machines.) Hence, it is false.

Neither conclusion (I) nor (II) follows

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4"

Given :  left  1358274  right

Arranged in the ascending order from left to right :

 

Two Digits will remain unchanged as compared to that in the original number: 1 and 7 

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3.'

Given:

• Mr. Yorly starts from Point A and drives 16 km towards South.
• He then takes a right turn, drives 14 km, turns right and drives 44 km.
• He then takes a right turn and drives 2 km, turns right drives 15 km.
• He then takes a left turn drives 21 km.
• He takes a final right turn, drives 13 km and stops at Point P

 

The final Diagram,

The direction he should drive in order to reach Point A is 9 km in west direction.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

Given:

Total number of students in the row = 54

Position of Gagan from the right end = 13^th

Since Nitin is 17^th to the left of Gagan, his position from the right end will be further away.

Position of Nitin from the right end = Position of Gagan from the right end + 17

= 13 + 17

= 30

So, Nitin is 30^th from the right end.

Position of Nitin from the left end = (Total number of students + 1) − Position from the right end

= (54 + 1) − 30

= 55 − 30

= 25

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

Family Chart:

Given:  ‘A + B ÷ C – D x E ÷ F

 

Therefore, A is the father of C, who is the father of F → A is the Father's father of F.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

The logic followed in this pattern is a consistent shift in the alphabetical order of each letter.

For 'JDHK' related to 'OIMP':

For 'MGKN' related to 'RLPS':

Applying the same logic to 'PJNQ':

Thus, PJNQ is related to UOSV.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

The logic follows here. 

Logic: Each vowel is replaced by its subsequent letter (+1) and each consonant by its preceding letter (−1) in alphabetical order.

New group of letters formed is: B V Q Q F M S

Left B V Q Q F M S  Right

Third from the right in the new group of letters thus formed is F.

Hence, the correct answer is option 3

The logic followed here is,

Therefore, the code for C is 8.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4"

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

Required condition: Perfect Square — Even Digit — Odd Digit.

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

So, there are two such even digits in the given series.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

The logic follows here. 

Logic: The pattern is based on adding consecutive perfect squares 1² , 2², 3², 4², 5²) to the preceding number

• 5 + 1² = 5 + 1 = 6
• 6 + 2² = 6 + 4 = 10
• 10 + 3² = 10 + 9 = 19
• 19 + 4² = 19 + 16 = 35
• 35 + 5² = 35 + 25 = 60

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1."

The logic followed here is:

QX 18 → SS 4:

EL 10 → GG −4:

Similarly, for IJ 5 → KE −9

  

Thus, IJ 5 is related to KE −9.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

Given number: 36857219

When the digits are arranged in ascending order from left to right, the new sequence is:

Left  12356789  Right 

The second digit from the left in the new number is 2. 

The third digit from the right in the new number is 7 

So, Sum of these two number 2 + 7 = 9.

The correct answer is 'Option 3'.

The logic followed here is:

Therefore, the term that replaces the question mark is ATX.

Hence, the correct answer is option 3

The pattern followed here is,

• The pattern for letters is: Previous letter + 9 = Next letter.
• The pattern for numbers is: Previous number − 5 = Next number.

By combining both patterns, the missing term is B 25.

Hence, the correct answer is option 2

Given:  (Left) K D D U R V U D E C Q D V A D R D G D E D Z D J (Right)

The logic to be followed here is to identify 'D's that satisfy the specific condition mentioned in the question.

Required Condition: Vowel → D → Consonant

Given:  (Left) K D D U R V U D E C Q D V A D R D G D E D Z D J (Right)

There are a total of two such 'D's in the series that satisfy the given conditions: A D R, E D Z

 

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1."

Preparing the family tree using the following symbols,

Given : ‘S – D + F ÷ H x K’

 

The family tree can be drawn using the given information,

Here, S is brother of H and H is wife of K so, we can see that S is wife brother’s  of K.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Total number of students in the row = 22

Position of Sunil from the left end = 17^th

Deepak is 3^rd to the right of Sunil.

Position of Deepak from the left end = Position of Sunil from the left end + 3

= 17 + 3

= 20^th

Position of Deepak from the right end = (Total number of students − Position of Deepak from the left end) + 1

= (22 − 20) + 1

= 2 + 1

= 3^rd

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

The logic followed here is.

Logic: The difference between the positional values of consecutive letters in each cluster is −1 and −3 based on the English alphabetical order.

For QPM

For BAX

For TTP

 

For SRO

 

The pattern observed in QPM, BAX, and SRO is the same. However, TTP follows a different pattern 

Hence, the correct answer is option 3

The logic followed here is.

‘BRAK’ is coded as '4938.'

'ARCK' is coded as '2849.'

The code for ‘C’ in the given code language is 2.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
