Question 291

RBI Assistant 2022• Reasoning Ability

Direction: Study the following information carefully and answer the question given below.

Eight different people – B, C, D, E, F, G, H and I are sitting on a rectangular table but not necessarily in the same order. Four of them are sitting on the middle side of the table facing outside and rest of them are sitting on the corners of the table facing inside. F is sitting second to the right of C who is sitting in the middle on the smaller side of the table. Two people are sitting between C and the one who is sitting immediate right of H. D is sitting fifth to the right of H. B is sitting immediate left of G. Neither B nor F is an immediate neighbour of E.

If B exchanges his position with C, then what will be the position of C with respect to F?

  1. AOption (a)

    Second to the right

  2. BOption (b)

    Third to the left

  3. COption (c)

    Fourth to the right

  4. DOption (d)

    Second to the left

  5. EOption (e)

    Fifth to the left

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (e)E.

Fifth to the left

Why this answer is correct

8 people – B, C, D, E, F, G, H and I.

Four of them are sitting on the middle side of the table facing outside and rest of them are sitting on the corners of the table facing inside.

  1. F is sitting second to the right of C who is sitting in the middle on the smaller side of the table.

  2. Two people are sitting between C and the one who is sitting immediate right of H.

  3. D is sitting fifth to the right of H.

  4. B is sitting immediate left of G.

  5. Neither B nor F is an immediate neighbour of E.

Thus, case I gets eliminated. 

Therefore, the final arrangement is as follows,

After interchanging the positions, we have:

Hence, C is sitting fifth to the left of F.

Question 292

RBI Assistant 2022• Reasoning Ability

Direction: In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion(s) among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.

Statement: 

G ≥ S = F > J > U < W

Conclusions:

I. J < G

II. S > W

  1. AOption (a)

    Only conclusion I follows

  2. BOption (b)

    Only conclusion II follows

  3. COption (c)

    Both conclusions I and II follow

  4. DOption (d)

    Either conclusion I or II follows

  5. EOption (e)

    None follows

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (a)A.

Only conclusion I follows

Why this answer is correct

Given statement,

G ≥ S = F > J > U < W

Conclusions:

I. J < G → True (G ≥ S = F > J → G > J i.e. J < G).

II. S > W → False (S = F > J > U < W → S > U < W, thus a clear relation between S and W cannot be determined).

Hence, only conclusion I follows.

Question 293

RBI Assistant 2022• Reasoning Ability

Directions

In the following question assuming the given statements to be true, find which of the conclusion among given some conclusion is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly:

Statement: U > T; X < U = Y; Y ≤ Q < R

Conclusions:

I) U > R

II) T < Q

  1. AOption (a)

    Only Conclusion I follows

  2. BOption (b)

    Only Conclusion II follows

  3. COption (c)

  4. DOption (d)

    Either I or II follows

  5. EOption (e)

    Neither I nor II follows

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

Only Conclusion II follows

Why this answer is correct

Given Statement: U > T; X < U = Y; Y ≤ Q < R

On combining: X < U = Y ≤  Q < R; U > T

Conclusions:

I) U > R → False (As, X < U = Y ≤  Q < R → There is definite relation between U and R).

II) T < Q → True (As, T < U = Y ≤ Q < R → T < Q).

Hence, Only II follows.

Question 294

RBI Assistant 2022• Reasoning Ability

Directions: In the following question assuming the given statements to be True, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.

Statements: L = M > O > P; Q < M; N < P

Conclusions:

I. Q < L

II. N < O

  1. AOption (a)

    Only conclusion I is True

  2. BOption (b)

    Only conclusion II is True

  3. COption (c)

    Either conclusion I or II is True

  4. DOption (d)

    Neither Conclusion I nor II is True

  5. EOption (e)

    Both Conclusion I and II is True

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (e)E.

Both Conclusion I and II is True

Why this answer is correct

Given Statements: L = M > O > P; Q < M; N < P

On combining: Q < L = M > O > P > N   

Conclusions:

I. Q < L → True (as Q < L = M)

II. N < O → True (as O > P > N)

Therefore, Both Conclusion I and II is True is the correct option

II. Q ≥ X

  1. AOption (a)

    Only conclusion I follow

  2. BOption (b)

    Only conclusion II follow

  3. COption (c)

    Either conclusion I or II follows

  4. DOption (d)

    Neither conclusion I nor II follows

  5. EOption (e)

    Both conclusion I and II follow

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

Only conclusion II follow

Why this answer is correct

Given statement: J ≤ Q = K ≥ A ≥ X < F

Conclusions:

I. J < F → False (As J ≤ Q = K ≥ A ≥ X < F; no clear relation between J and F.)

II. Q ≥ X → True (Q = K ≥ A ≥ X, makes Q ≥ X)

Hence, only conclusion II follows.
