Reasoning PYQs

Fourteen people .

A, B, C, D, E, F and G are sitting in row-2 and facing South.

P, Q, R, S, T, U and V Are sitting in row-1 and facing North.

1- G is second from one end. 

2- Only one people is sitting between P and the one who is facing G. 

3- Only two people are sitting between G and C. 

4- A is sitting immediately to the left of C. 

 

Case-1

 

Case-2

 

5- The one who is facing A is sitting immediate left of R. 

6- One person is sitting between T and U. 

7- As many people are sitting between T and R as are sitting between T and U. 

 

Case-1

 

Case-2

  

8- S and D are facing each other and sitting on an end. 

9- Only one person is sitting between C and E, who is not facing U. 

10- B is sitting immediate right of F. 

  

Case-1

 

Case-2

 

11- Both F and G are not facing V. So, case-2 gets eliminated.

 

So, Final arrangement;

 

Hence, P is sitting second to the left of the one who is facing A.

The logic follows here is:-

Thus, the correct answer is “NT”.

Given

Statements:

P > Q > R ; R > S ≥ T

On Combining : P > Q > R > S ≥ T

Conclusions:

I. R > T → True ( As R > S ≥ T ; Thus clear relation between R and T can be determined )

II. P > S → True ( As P > Q > R > S ; Thus clear relation between P and S can be determined )

Therefore Both conclusion I and II are True.

Given

Statements:

M > E ≤ W; Q < E; Q ≥ P > S

On combining: M > E > Q ≥ P > S; W ≥ E > Q ≥ P > S

Conclusions:

I. M > S → True (as M > E > Q ≥ P > S → M > S)

II. E ≥ P → False (as E > Q ≥ P → E > P)

Hence, only I is True.

Given: GALACTOMETER

Used letters:- GALACTOMETER -  4^th, 8^th, 10^th and 11^th which are A, M, T, E.

Meaningful words are:- MATE, TEAM, MEAT etc...

MATE - A friend or somebody you live, work or do an activity with.

TEAM - a group of people who play a sport or game together against another group.

MEAT- the parts of animals or birds that people eat.

Hence, more than one such word can be made so the answer is Y.
