Reasoning PYQs

Here, we use some notation

Six persons live in a family namely A, K, M, R, T and Y

1. M is the brother – in – law of husband of A’s daughter – in – law. Which means M’s sister is A’s daughter – in – law or A’s son is M’s brother – in – law.

2. T is daughter – in – law of grandparent of K, who is the only niece of R’s brother – in – law . So K is a female.                                             

3. Y is a male person.                                                                                                                                                                     

4. There is no single parents. Since there is two married couple so T must be A’s daughter – in – law  which means T is sister of M and mother of K. Therefore, R is T’s husband and A’s son. Since Y is a male person so A is a female.

Representing this in a family tree we get                                          

Hence, all statements except Y is father of R are false.

Representing this in a family tree we get                                          

Hence, M is the brother - in - law of R.

Representing this in a family tree we get                                          

Hence, T is the mother of K.

1. The box which contains Kiwis placed either on top or on bottom.                                                                        

2. Less than three boxes placed above the box of Apples.

3. Only one box placed between boxes of Grapes and Apples.

 

4. The box which contains Blueberries placed three boxes above the box of Pomegranates, which is below the box of Bananas.

5. The box which contains Oranges placed on even position below the sixth position. Since, if we place Oranges at second position in case 3 and case 4 which can not satisfy the fourth condition. So, case 4 and case 3 are eliminated.

 

6. The box which contains Blueberries placed below the box of Grapes. So, case 1, case 5, case 6 are eliminated. Since box which contain Banana placed above the box of Pomegranates so case 2(a) is eliminated. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows

 

Hence, the box of Oranges placed at top position.

1. The box which contains Kiwis placed either on top or on bottom.                                                                        

2. Less than three boxes placed above the box of Apples.

3. Only one box placed between boxes of Grapes and Apples.

 

4. The box which contains Blueberries placed three boxes above the box of Pomegranates, which is below the box of Bananas.

5. The box which contains Oranges placed on even position below the sixth position. Since, if we place Oranges at second position in case 3 and case 4 which can not satisfy the fourth condition. So, case 4 and case 3 are eliminated.

 

6. The box which contains Blueberries placed below the box of Grapes. So, case 1, case 5, case 6 are eliminated. Since box which contain Banana placed above the box of Pomegranates so case 2(a) is eliminated. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows

 

Hence, Three boxes are placed between boxes of Oranges and Blueberries.

1. The box which contains Kiwis placed either on top or on bottom.                                                                        

2. Less than three boxes placed above the box of Apples.

3. Only one box placed between boxes of Grapes and Apples.

 

4. The box which contains Blueberries placed three boxes above the box of Pomegranates, which is below the box of Bananas.

5. The box which contains Oranges placed on even position below the sixth position. Since, if we place Oranges at second position in case 3 and case 4 which can not satisfy the fourth condition. So, case 4 and case 3 are eliminated.

 

6. The box which contains Blueberries placed below the box of Grapes. So, case 1, case 5, case 6 are eliminated. Since box which contain Banana placed above the box of Pomegranates so case 2(a) is eliminated. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows

 

Hence, the box of Apples placed immediately above the box of Bananas.

1. The box which contains Kiwis placed either on top or on bottom.                                                                        

2. Less than three boxes placed above the box of Apples.

3. Only one box placed between boxes of Grapes and Apples.

 

4. The box which contains Blueberries placed three boxes above the box of Pomegranates, which is below the box of Bananas.

5. The box which contains Oranges placed on even position below the sixth position. Since, if we place Oranges at second position in case 3 and case 4 which can not satisfy the fourth condition. So, case 4 and case 3 are eliminated.

 

6. The box which contains Blueberries placed below the box of Grapes. So, case 1, case 5, case 6 are eliminated. Since box which contain Banana placed above the box of Pomegranates so case 2(a) is eliminated. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows

 

Since, if box of Kiwis change its position with box of Banana then three boxes placed below it.

1. The box which contains Kiwis placed either on top or on bottom.                                                                        

2. Less than three boxes placed above the box of Apples.

3. Only one box placed between boxes of Grapes and Apples.

 

4. The box which contains Blueberries placed three boxes above the box of Pomegranates, which is below the box of Bananas.

5. The box which contains Oranges placed on even position below the sixth position. Since, if we place Oranges at second position in case 3 and case 4 which can not satisfy the fourth condition. So, case 4 and case 3 are eliminated.

 

6. The box which contains Blueberries placed below the box of Grapes. So, case 1, case 5, case 6 are eliminated. Since box which contain Banana placed above the box of Pomegranates so case 2(a) is eliminated. Hence, the final arrangement is as follows

 

Since, only two boxes placed above the box of Apples and two boxes placed below the box of Pomegranates,

Therefore, correct answer is Pomegranates.

Forward Pairs - NS, IN

Backward Pairs - IM, NO

Thus, there are four such pairs of letters in the word “TRANSMISSION” which have as many letters between them as in the English alphabetical series (both in forward and backward directions).

Hence, the correct answer is Four.

Here, Seven persons are A, E, F, L, M, P and R

1. Only three person lives between R and F, who doesn’t lives on top floor.

Since, T lives in Sikkim so statement A is incorrect.

S lives in Goa and R lives in Sikkim so statement B is incorrect.

K lives in Goa but I lives in Bihar so statement C is incorrect. 

Therefore, correct answer is all of these.

1. R and X lives in different cities but not in Goa.
