Reasoning PYQs

Forward Pair - CI

Backward Pair - ON, ON

Hence, Three such pairs each of which has as many letters between them in the word as they have between them in the English alphabetical series.

1) Two persons buy items between B and A

2. A buys an item after B.

3) A buys item immediately before G and after C. 

4) Three-person buys items between A and D. 

 

5. Two people buy item between H and C. (This eliminates case 4)

 

6. F buys an item before E.

7. Neither F nor E buys items first or last. (This eliminates case 2 and case 3)

 

Hence two person buys F and G.

1) Two persons buy items between B and A

2. A buys an item after B.

3) A buys item immediately before G and after C. 

4) Three-person buys items between A and D. 

 

5. Two people buy item between H and C. (This eliminates case 4)

 

6. F buys an item before E.

7. Neither F nor E buys items first or last. (This eliminates case 2 and case 3)

Hence, D buys the the item at last.

1) Two persons buy items between B and A

2. A buys an item after B.

3) A buys item immediately before G and after C. 

4) Three-person buys items between A and D. 

 

5. Two people buy item between H and C. (This eliminates case 4)

 

6. F buys an item before E.

7. Neither F nor E buys items first or last. (This eliminates case 2 and case 3)

Hence, H buys the item immediate before E.

1) Two persons buy items between B and A

2. A buys an item after B.

3) A buys item immediately before G and after C. 

4) Three-person buys items between A and D. 

 

5. Two people buy item between H and C. (This eliminates case 4)

 

6. F buys an item before E.

7. Neither F nor E buys items first or last. (This eliminates case 2 and case 3)

Hence, five-person buys item after C.

1) Two persons buy items between B and A

2. A buys an item after B.

3) A buys item immediately before G and after C. 

4) Three-person buys items between A and D. 

 

5. Two people buy item between H and C. (This eliminates case 4)

 

6. F buys an item before E.

7. Neither F nor E buys items first or last. (This eliminates case 2 and case 3)

Hence, AB is the odd one out.

Given

Statements:

D < E ≤ F, G > H ≥ I > F

On combining:  D < E ≤ F < I ≤ H < G

Conclusions:

I. E ≤ H → False (as E ≤ F < I ≤ H → E < H)

II. H > D → True (as D < E ≤ F < I ≤ H → D < H)

Hence, only II is true.

Given

Statements:

M ≥ B ≥ N = Z > X ≤ R > S

Conclusions:

I. M > X → True (as M ≥ B ≥ N = Z > X →M > X)

II. N > S → False (as N = Z > X ≤ R > S → Relation between N and S cannot be determined)

Hence, only I is true.

Given

Statements:

M > N ≥ O = P ≤ Q < R > S

Conclusion:

I. M > P → True (as M > N ≥ O = P → M > P)

II. O < R → True (as O = P ≤ Q < R → O < R)

Hence, both I and II are true.

Given:

Persons sitting in two parallel rows.

Six persons: A, B, C, D, E and F are facing north.

 P, Q, R, S, T, and U are facing south.

Each person from one row faces exactly one person from the other row but not necessarily in the same order.

1. A sits at one of the extreme ends. A and R sits diagonally opposite each other.

2. There are two persons sitting between R and Q.

3. One of the immediate neighbors of Q faces C, who does not sit near A.

4. P faces B and P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

5. There are two persons sitting between B and D.

6. T sits second to the right of U.

7. E does not sit at any of the extreme ends.

8. S and T is not immediate neighbor of each other. (This eliminates case 1)

Hence, three persons are there between R and U.

Given:

Persons sitting in two parallel rows.

Six persons: A, B, C, D, E and F are facing north.

 P, Q, R, S, T, and U are facing south.

Each person from one row faces exactly one person from the other row but not necessarily in the same order.

1. A sits at one of the extreme ends. A and R sits diagonally opposite each other.

2. There are two persons sitting between R and Q.

3. One of the immediate neighbors of Q faces C, who does not sit near A.

4. P faces B and P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

5. There are two persons sitting between B and D.

6. T sits second to the right of U.

7. E does not sit at any of the extreme ends.

8. S and T is not immediate neighbor of each other. (This eliminates case 1)

No one sits at extreme end except A.

Hence, A is different.

Given:

Persons sitting in two parallel rows.

Six persons: A, B, C, D, E and F are facing north.

 P, Q, R, S, T, and U are facing south.

Each person from one row faces exactly one person from the other row but not necessarily in the same order.

1. A sits at one of the extreme ends. A and R sits diagonally opposite each other.

2. There are two persons sitting between R and Q.

3. One of the immediate neighbors of Q faces C, who does not sit near A.

4. P faces B and P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

5. There are two persons sitting between B and D.

6. T sits second to the right of U.

7. E does not sit at any of the extreme ends.

8. S and T is not immediate neighbor of each other. (This eliminates case 1)

Clearly, S is second to the left of Q.

Given:

Persons sitting in two parallel rows.

Six persons: A, B, C, D, E and F are facing north. 

P, Q, R, S, T, and U are facing south.

Each person from one row faces exactly one person from the other row but not necessarily in the same order.

1. A sits at one of the extreme ends. A and R sits diagonally opposite each other.

2. There are two persons sitting between R and Q.

3. One of the immediate neighbors of Q faces C, who does not sit near A.

4. P faces B and P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

5. There are two persons sitting between B and D.

6. T sits second to the right of U.

7. E does not sit at any of the extreme ends.

8. S and T is not immediate neighbor of each other. (This eliminates case 1)

If persons who are facing north sit as per alphabetical order from left to right, the arrangement is as follows:

Hence, two persons do not change their seats.

Given:

Persons sitting in two parallel rows.

Six persons: A, B, C, D, E and F are facing north.

 P, Q, R, S, T, and U are facing south.

Each person from one row faces exactly one person from the other row but not necessarily in the same order.

1. A sits at one of the extreme ends. A and R sits diagonally opposite each other.

2. There are two persons sitting between R and Q.

3. One of the immediate neighbors of Q faces C, who does not sit near A.

4. P faces B and P is not an immediate neighbor of Q.

5. There are two persons sitting between B and D.

6. T sits second to the right of U.

7. E does not sit at any of the extreme ends.

8. S and T is not immediate neighbor of each other. (This eliminates case 1)

Hence, C sits opposite T.

Given series:

Left Side 5 4 A B % & 3 5 E 2 1 U * G @ © 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1 Right Side

1)Vowels which are immediately preceded by a perfect square

Perfect square → Vowel

5 4 A B % & 3 5 E 2 1 U * G @ © 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1

Hence there are only ‘two’ vowels which are immediately preceded by a perfect square.

Given series:

Left Side 5 4 A B % & 3 5 E 2 1 U * G @ © 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1 Right Side

1. Numbers which are immediately preceded by a symbol and followed by a consonant:

5 4 A B % & 3 5 E 2 1 U * G @ © 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1

Hence, there is one such combination.

Given series:

Left Side 5 4 A B % & 3 5 E 2 1 U * G @ © 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1 Right Side

1. If all symbols are dropped the series will be:

Given series:

Left Side 5 4 A B 3 5 E 2 1 U G 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 T V 9 4 H L M 1 Right Side

2. Element which is tenth from the left of third element from the right.

Firstly, Element which is third from right i.e. ‘L’

5 4 A B 3 5 E 2 1 U G 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 T V 9 4 H L M 1

Now 10^th element from the left of ‘L’

5 4 A B 3 5 E 2 1 U G 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 T V 9 4 H L M 1

Hence ‘7’ is tenth from the left of third element from the right.

Given series:

Left Side 5 4 A B % & 3 5 E 2 1 U * G @ © 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1 Right Side

1. First eighteen elements in the above sequence are written in reverse order

C 9 © @G * U 1 2 E 5 3 & % B A 4 5 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1

2. Now eighteenth position from right end

C 9 © @G * U 1 2 E 5 3 & % B A 4 5 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1

Hence after reversing the first eighteen elements ‘4’ is at eighteenth position from the right.

Given series:

Left Side 5 4 A B % & 3 5 E 2 1 U * G @ © 9 C 5 7 F K I 4 £ T V 9 4 H € L M 1 Right Side

1. B & E → B + 2 = &; & + 3 = E

2. 7 K £ → 7 + 2 = K; K + 3 = £

3. 4 € 1 → 4 + 2 = €; € + 3 = 1

4. 4 B 3 → 4 + 2 = B; B + 3 = 3

5) U G © → U + 2 = G; G + 2 = ©

Hence ‘U G ©’ does not belong to the given group.

In the CONSECUTIVE third, fourth, eighth and eleventh is N, S, T and E 

Word from these are NEST TENS and SENT. 

As more than one word can be formed. 

Hence, X is the answer.
