Correct answer
N2676S
Why this answer is correct
Z1A, X2D, V6G, T21J, R88M, P445P, ?
The pattern followed here is,
The logic for numbers is,
1 x 1 + 1 = 2,
2 x 2 + 2 = 6,
6 x 3 + 3 = 21,
21 x 4 + 4 = 88,
88 x 5 + 5 = 445,
445 x 6 + 6 = 2676
Hence, the next term will be N2676S.
Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.
Statements:
Conclusions:
I. Some tables are desk.
II. Some chairs are not desk.
III. No desk is a table.
Either I or III follows
Either I or II and III follows
Either I or III and II follows
Only II follows
Correct answer
Either I or III follows
Why this answer is correct
Least possible venn diagram is:
Conclusions
I. Some tables are desks → False.
There is no direct relationship between desk and table so, no conclusion can be derived.
II. Some chairs are not desks → False.
Some chairs are desks but there is no information about the remaining chairs so, the conclusion is considered false.
III. No desk is a table → False.
There is no direct relationship between desk and table so, no conclusion can be derived.
Here Conclusion I and III form complementary pairs and either of them has to be true.
Hence, Either I or III follows is the correct answer.
Note:
Conditions of Either-or case:
The two complementary pairs are:
All + Some not
No + Some
Additional Information
In a certain code language, 'APPLES' is written as 'AQQMET'. How will 'ORANGE' be written in that language?
SOCHEI
OSAOHE
OSAHOE
SOACHE
Correct answer
OSAOHE
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is:
Vowels are placed as it is.
Consonant are increased by +1.
Now,
'APPLES' is written as 'AQQMET',
Similarly, for 'ORANGE'
So, 'ORANGE' will be written as 'OSAOHE'.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".
Complete the following series.
PAW, UFB, YJF, BMI, ?
DOK
MOD
DOM
DOO
Correct answer
DOK
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed is:
Hence, the correct answer is "DOK".
Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. Assuming that the information given in the statements is true, even if it appears to be at variance with commonly known facts, decide which of the given conclusions logically follow(s) from the statements.
Statements:
Conclusions:
I. Some truck are cars.
II. All cars are trucks.
III. No car is a truck.
Only I follows
Either I or II follows
Only II follows
Only III follows
Correct answer
Only III follows
Why this answer is correct
Least possible venn diagram is:
Conclusions
I. Some trucks are cars → False.
All trucks are buses and no bus is a car so, no truck can be a car. The conclusion is false.
II. All cars are trucks → False.
All trucks are buses and no bus is a car so, no truck can be a car. The conclusion is false.
III. No car is a truck → True.
All trucks are buses and no bus is a car so, no truck can be a car. The conclusion is true
Hence, only conclusion III follows is the correct answer.
Note:
Conditions of Either-or case:
The two complementary pairs are:
All + Some not
No + Some
Additional Information
In the following question, select the related letter/letters from the given alternatives.
VERY : ASGA :: CUTE : ?
GXVF
TCEU
CTEU
EUCT
Correct answer
TCEU
Why this answer is correct
The pattern follows here is:
Similarly,
Hence, the correct answer is "TCEU".
Directions
Select the related word from the given alternatives.
Cape Town : South Africa : : Wellington : ?
Sweden
New Zealand
Japan
Hungary
Correct answer
New Zealand
Why this answer is correct
Here, Cape Town is the capital of South Africa.
Similarly,
Wellington is the capital of New Zealand.
Hence, "New Zealand" is the correct answer.
Eight friends, J, K, L, M, N, O, P and Q, are sitting in a row facing towards north and at equal distance from each other (not necessarily in the same order). L sits fourth to the right of K who sits at an extreme end. Two persons sit between L and M. J sits adjacent to O and M. Three persons sit between J and N. Q is an immediate neighbour of L and N. K is not a neighbour of P.Who sits at the extreme right position?
K
P
Q
M
Correct answer
P
Why this answer is correct
L sits fourth to the right of K who sits at an extreme end.
Two persons sit between L and M.
J sits adjacent to O and M.
Three persons sit between J and N.
Q is an immediate neighbour of L and N.
K is not a neighbour of P.
‘P’ sits at the extreme right position
Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
Select the alphanumeric-group from the given alternatives which can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
A121O, F169T, K225Y, P289D, ?
U316I
V361I
U361J
U361I
Correct answer
U361I
Why this answer is correct
The table shows the place value of the alphabet from A to Z.
The logic followed here is:
Given series is A121O, F169T, K225Y, P289D, ?
So, "U361I" is the next series.
Hence, "Option (4)" is the correct answer.
In an exam of 100 questions, a correct answer gives 1 mark but a wrong answer deducts 1 mark, and if a question is not attempted there is no deduction in marks. If a student attempted only 70% of the question and got 44 marks, then how many questions did he answer correctly?
48
50
57
54
Correct answer
57
Why this answer is correct
Let us consider that the student has answered ‘x’ answers correctly.
Now, the student attempted only 70% of the given questions
70% of 100 = 70
So, number of incorrect questions = 70 – x
The student scored 44 marks
So, according to question;
x – (70 – x) = 44
x – 70 + x = 44
2x = 70 + 44
2x = 114
x = 57
Hence, the student answered 57 questions correctly.
