In a certain code language, 'INHALE' is written as 'REEDIH'. How will 'MIGHTY' be written in that language?
CCILMP
IMCLCP
MILCCP
MCLICP
Correct answer
MILCCP
Why this answer is correct
Table show alphabet serial number –
The pattern for the code is as follows,
Similarly,
Hence, ‘MIGHTY’ is coded as ‘MILCCP’.
Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions.
If
A $ B means A is the father of B
A @ B means B is the mother of A
A * B means A is the wife of B
A & B means A is the sister of B
A # B means B is the daughter of A
In Y & A @ X * Z $ B, How is ‘A’ related to ‘B’?
Niece
Sister
Uncle
Cannot be determined
Correct answer
Cannot be determined
Why this answer is correct
Representation:
The coded logic is given in the table below:
| A is | B is | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Symbol | $ | * | & | @ | # |
| Meaning | Father | Wife | Sister | Mother | Daughter |
| Of B | Of A |
According to the given expression,
A $ B means A is the father of B
A @ B means B is the mother of A
A * B means A is the wife of B
A & B means A is the sister of B
A # B means B is the daughter of A
1) Y & A
3) Y & A @ X * Z
4) Y & A @ X * Z $ B
According to the above expression following family tree is formed.
Therefore, the gender of A and B are not determined.
Hence, Cannot be determined is the correct answer$.
Directions
In the following question below some statements are given followed by some conclusions. Taking the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts, read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows the given statements.
Statements:
All plants are trees.
No tree is herb.
Some herbs are animals.
Conclusions:
I. Some herbs are plants.
II. All herbs being animals is a possibility.
Only conclusion I follows.
Only conclusion II follows.
None follows.
Both conclusions follow.
Correct answer
Only conclusion II follows.
Why this answer is correct
The least possible Venn diagram of the given statements is given below:
I. Some herbs are plants. : False (No tree is herb, and all plants are trees hence, no herb can be plants.
II. All herbs being animals is a possibility. : True (As 'Some' is subset of 'All', it is possible that All herbs are animals.)
Hence, only conclusion II follows.
Seven students, Aman, Bhanu, Charu, Divya, Viplav, Madan and Govind, are sitting around a round table facing the center and discussing their next project.
(i) Viplav sits as the immediate neighbor of Aman and Divya.
(ii) Govind is not sitting between Madan and Charu.
(iii) Madan is sitting to the right of Aman.
Who is sitting in the neighborhood on both sides of Bhanu?
Aman and Divya
Madan and Charu
Charu and Divya
Aman and Viplav
Correct answer
Madan and Charu
Why this answer is correct
Seven students: Aman, Bhanu, Charu, Divya, Viplav, Madan, and Govind.
1) Madan is sitting to the right of Aman.
2) Viplav sits as the immediate neighbor of Aman and Divya.
3) Govind is not sitting between Madan and Charu.
Means, one person sitting between Charu and Madan.
Hence, the neighbours of Bhanu are Madan and Charu.
Four letter-clusters have been given, out of which three are alike in some manner and one is different. Select the odd letter-cluster.
EGVT
TUGD
NOML
ADZW
Correct answer
TUGD
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed is,
All follow the same pattern, except ‘TUGD’.
Hence, “TUGD” is the odd letter cluster.
Select the number from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
39, 53, ?, 108, 149, 199
81
72
79
76
Correct answer
76
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed in the given series is:
The difference of difference between the terms is 9.
Hence the correct answer is option 4).
Five persons have different weights. P is lighter than N, who is not the heaviest. M is heavier than only Q. O is heavier than P. How many persons are lighter than O?
Three
Four
Five
One
Correct answer
Four
Why this answer is correct
_ > _ > _ > M > Q
_ > N > P > M > Q
Thus, the final arrangement will be :
O > N > P > M > Q
Hence, four persons are lighter than O.
Additional Information
"And" is used for the first person in a sentence.
For example,
A is taller than B and shorter than C → It means A is taller than B and A is shorter than C.
"Who" is used for the second person in a sentence.
For example,
A is taller than B who is shorter than C → It means A is taller than B and B is shorter than C.
A series is given with one term missing. Select the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series.
0, 2, 12, ?, 80, 150
36
45
30
50
Correct answer
36
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed here is:
02 × 1 = 0,
12 × 2 = 2,
22 × 3 = 12,
32 × 4 = 36,
42 × 5 = 80,
52 × 6 = 150
Hence, 36 is the correct answer.
Select the option that is related to the fifth number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the fourth number is related to the third number.
18 ∶ 4 ∶∶ 36 ∶ 16 ∶∶ 27 ∶ ?
8
9

10
Correct answer
9
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed here is:
Logic:- × 9 = First number.
⇒ × 9
⇒ 2 × 9 = 18
And,
⇒ × 9
⇒ 4 × 9 = 36
Similarly,
⇒ × 9 = 27
⇒ = 27 ÷ 9
⇒ = 3
⇒ 9
Hence, the correct answer is "9"
