Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is:

Position of Jay from the top = 9^th

Position of Jay from the bottom = 12^th

Total number of students in the class = (Position from top + Position from bottom) − 1

= (9 + 12) − 1

= 21 − 1

= 20

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

Family Chart

Let us first decode the given symbols and then draw a family tree.

 

Given: B = C ? O % P € X

The Family tree diagram is,

​Therefore, B is the brother of P, who is the wife of X → B is the Wife's brother of X.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

The logic followed in this pattern is based on the English alphabetical order, where each letter in the group is shifted forward by 2 positions.

For 'HLJN' related to 'JNLP':

For 'EIGK' related to 'GKIM':

Applying the same logic to 'FJHL':

Thus, FJHL is related to HLJN.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.

The logic followed here is:

 

For, JKL

For, FGH

For, BDD

For , LMN

The letter clusters JKL, FGH, and LMN follow a common pattern, whereas BDD is the odd one out.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"

The pattern followed here is,

Logic: First letter − 4 = Second letter and Second letter + 5 = Third letter.

LHM,

RNS,

 

OKM,

 

UQV,

Therefore, the letter-cluster that is different from the others is OKM.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.

Given word: 'LANGUID.'

After arranged in alphabetical order:

After arranged in alphabetical order,

The third alphabet from the left end is: G,

The third alphabet from the right end is: L,

Now, there are 4 letters between G and L.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1."

Given: Seven people, F, G, H, L, M, O, and Q, are sitting around a circular table, facing the center of the table.

1. Only one person sits between Q and L when counted from the right of Q.

2. Only one person sits between L and M when counted from the left of M.

3. Only one person sits between Q and G when counted from the right of G.

4. Only two people sit between H and M when counted from the left of M.

5. Only one person sits between F and G when counted from the right of F.

The Final Arrangement is,

Therefore, Q and G sit to the immediate right and left of O, respectively.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

The logic follows here, 

For 'TREK - RTEK - KRTE':

For 'MAPS - AMPS - SAMP':

Applying the same logic to 'WISE' in the options:

Thus, the triad WISE - IWSE - EIWS follows the logic correctly, while other options do not match the expected pattern.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

Given:

• Akshay starts from Point A and drives 12 km towards the north.
• He then takes a right turn, drives 15 km, turns right and drives 17 km.
• He then takes a right turn and drives 18 km.
• He takes a final right turn, drives 5 km and stops at Point P

The Final Diagram,

3 km to the east  in order to reach Point A again

Hence, the correct answer is option 4

According to the given information,

When 1 is added to each odd digit and 1 is subtracted from each even digit in the number 47321568,

Now the new number is: 38412657

Left  3 8 4 1 2 6 5 7 Right

Hence the correct answer is "option 1"

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is:

Conclusions:

(I) Some clouds are vapor -  Does not follow

(There is no direct relation between clouds and vapor maybe it is possible but not definite.)

(II) Some vapor is water. - Follows (Some water is vapor, and some vapour is water is true)

Only conclusion (II) follows

Hence the correct answer is "Option 1"

Logic followed here is the comparison of words to identify common letters and their corresponding numerical codes.

Given:

PINS is coded as 3247

HIPS is coded as 4627

Step 1: Identify common letters in both words.

The letters common to PINS and HIPS are P, I, and S.

Step 2: Identify common digits in both numerical codes.

The digits common to 3247 and 4627 are 2, 4, and 7.

This implies that the set of letters {P, I, S} corresponds to the set of digits {2, 4, 7}.

Step 3: Determine the code for H.

In the word HIPS, the letter that remains after removing P, I, and S is H.

In the code 4627, the digit that remains after removing 2, 4, and 7 is 6.

Therefore, the code for H is 6.

The correct answer is option 2

Family Chart

Let us first decode the given symbols and then draw a family tree.

 

Given: G @ K & V * P # W % J

The family tree diagram is , 

Based on the tree, V is the daughter of J, and K is the husband of V. Therefore, J is the Wife's mother of K.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

The logic follows here, 

• unit flash zebra → mi de cz
• zebra dance king → de uv id

 

The code for zebra is de.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4"

Given series:  9 7 6 4 3 5 7 6 4 6 7 6 9 8 7 7 6 6 7 6 5 7 6 8 7 5 6 

Required Condition: Perfect Square -  Even Digit - Even Digit

(Left) 9 7 6 4 3 5 7 6 4 6 7 6 9 8 7 7 6 6 7 6 5 7 6 8 7 5 6 (Right)​

Since no even digit in the series is simultaneously preceded by a perfect square and followed by an even digit, the total count is None.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.​

Given: Seven people, L, V, H, D, E, F and T, are sitting in a row, facing north.

• Only four people sit to the right of D.
• V sits fourth from the left end.
• E is the immediate neighbor of H and T.
• F sits third to the left of T.

The Final Arrangement is,

The people sitting between L and H are F, D, V, T, and E.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"

The logic followed in the given number series is as follows:

Logic: (Previous number × Multiplier) − 2 = Next number

 

• 28 × 0.5 − 2 = 14 − 2 = 12
• 12 × 1.0 − 2 = 12 − 2 = 10
• 10 × 1.5 − 2 = 15 − 2 = 13
• 13 × 2.0 − 2 = 26 − 2 = 24
• 24 × 2.5 − 2 = 60 − 2 = 58

 

The next term in the series is 58.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option1"

The logic followed here is

Logic: First letter + 2 = Second letter; Second letter − 1 = Third letter

  EGF,

BDC,

 

HJI,

VYW,

This cluster does not follow the same logic as the others.

Therefore, the letter cluster that is different from the others is VYW.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

The logic follows here. 

Logic: Double difference of 6 and 10.

• 10 + 3 = 13
• 13 + 9 = 22
• 22 + 19 = 41
• 41 + 25 = 66
• 66 + 35 = 101
• 101 + 41 = 142

Missing number  = 101 + 41 = 142

Hence, the correct answer is ''Option 2"

Given: Seven boxes F, A, C, T, O, R, and S are kept one over the other but not necessarily in the same order

1. Only two boxes are kept below A.
2. R is kept immediately above A.
3. Only three boxes are kept between T and A.

1. Only one box is kept between S and R.
2. Only four boxes are kept between S and F.
3. O is kept at someplace above C.

Final Arrangement:

Thus, there are 4 boxes (R, A, C, and F) kept below O.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.
