Question 21

RRB Group D 2026• General Intelligence & Reasoning

Select the pair which follows the same pattern as that followed by the two pairs given below. Both pairs follow the same pattern.

BKQ:FOU

DJM:HNQ

  1. AOption (a)

    BST:HIS

  2. BOption (b)

    ELO:IPS

  3. COption (c)

    TYP:VHU

  4. DOption (d)

    VTO:FRS

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

ELO:IPS

Why this answer is correct

The logic followed here is:

For, BKQ → FOU

For, DJM → HNQ

Now, checking the options using the same pattern:

Option 1) BST → HIS

Option 2) ELO → IPS

Option 3) TYP → VHU

Option 4) VTO → FRS

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

Question 22

RRB Group D 2026• General Intelligence & Reasoning

Based on the alphabetical order, three of the following four are alike in a certain way and thus form a group. Which is the one that does not belong to that group?

(Note: The odd one out is not based on the number of consonants/vowels or their position in the letter cluster)

  1. AOption (a)

    GLO

  2. BOption (b)

    VZC

  3. COption (c)

    NSV

  4. DOption (d)

    KPS

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

VZC

Why this answer is correct

The logic followed here is based on the alphabetical position pattern:

Option 1: GLO

Option 2: VZC

Option 3: NSV

Option 4: KPS

Thus, VZC does not follow the uniform pattern of +5, +3.

Hence, the odd one out is Option 2.

Question 23

RRB Group D 2026• General Intelligence & Reasoning

All 133 people are standing in a row facing north. Mr. Lkj is 24th from the right end while Mr. Ihg is 33rd from the left end. How many people are there between Mr. Lkj and Mr. Ihg?

  1. AOption (a)

    77

  2. BOption (b)

    78

  3. COption (c)

    76

  4. DOption (d)

    75

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (c)C.

76

Why this answer is correct

Given:

Total people = 133

Mr. Ihg is 33rd from the left end,

and Mr. Lkj is 24th from the right end.

Number of people between them = 133 − (33 + 24) = 133 − 57 = 76.

So, there are 76 people between Mr. Ihg and Mr. Lkj.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Question 24

RRB Group D 2026• General Intelligence & Reasoning

If '+' means 'subtraction', '−' means 'multiplication', '×' means 'division' and '÷' means 'addition', then what will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation?

\( 19 + 32 \times 4 \div 9 - 3 = ? \)

  1. AOption (a)

    32

  2. BOption (b)

    38

  3. COption (c)

    37

  4. DOption (d)

    35

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

38

Why this answer is correct

BODMAS Table: 

Decoding the given information:

Alphabet+−×÷
Meaning−×÷+

Now, replacing the sign from left to right using BODMAS Rule, we get:

⇒ 19 − 32 ÷ 4 + 9 × 3 = ?

⇒ 19 − 8 + 27 = ?

⇒ 19 + 27− 8  = 46

⇒ 46 − 8 = ?

⇒ 38

Hence, the correct option is "Option 2".

Question 25

RRB Group D 2026• General Intelligence & Reasoning

Read the given statement(s) 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 statement(s).

Statements: Some cookies are juices. All juices are breads.

Conclusion (I): Some breads are cookies

Conclusion (II): No cookie is a bread

  1. AOption (a)

    Neither conclusion (I) nor (II) follows

  2. BOption (b)

    Only conclusion (II) follows

  3. COption (c)

    Only conclusion (I) follows

  4. DOption (d)

    Both conclusions (I) and (II) follow

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (c)C.

Only conclusion (I) follows

Why this answer is correct

Given Statements:

Some cookies are juices.

All juices are breads.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is:

 

Conclusions:

I. Some breads are cookies → Follows (Since some cookies are juices and all juices are breads, those cookies are also breads)

II. No cookie is a bread → Does not follow (There is a definite overlap between cookies and breads through juices)

So, only conclusion I follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Question 26

RRB Group D 2026• General Intelligence & Reasoning

Seven people, S, Q, U, A, R, E and D are sitting in a row, facing north.

Only two people sit between U and E. Only Q sits to the right of D. Only one person sits between E and D. S sits at some place to the right of A but at some place to the left of R.

How many people sit between R and A?

  1. AOption (a)

    Four

  2. BOption (b)

    One

  3. COption (c)

    Two

  4. DOption (d)

    Three

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (c)C.

Two

Why this answer is correct

Given: Seven people S, Q, U, A, R, E and D are sitting in a row, facing north.

Only two people sit between U and E.

Only Q sits to the right of D.

Only one person sits between E and D.

S sits at some place to the right of A but at some place to the left of R.

Now, people between R and A: S, E → 2 people

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Question 27

RRB Group D 2026• General Intelligence & Reasoning

IKLO is related to XZAD in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, QSTW is related to FHIL. To which of the following options is JLMP related to, following the same logic?

  1. AOption (a)

    YEAB

  2. BOption (b)

    YABE

  3. COption (c)

    YRTE

  4. DOption (d)

    YBDE

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

YABE

Why this answer is correct

The logic followed here is:

For, IKLO → XZAD

For, QSTW → FHIL

Now, applying the same pattern to JLMP:

So, JLMP → YABE

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

Question 28

  3. COption (c)

    2

  4. DOption (d)

    7

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (c)C.

2

Why this answer is correct

Given:

MULE is coded as 7536

LUKE is coded as 6723

So, the code for K = 2

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

NKU 51

Why this answer is correct

The logic followed here is:

So, 'NKU 51' will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Question 30

RRB Group D 2026• General Intelligence & Reasoning

Six people, A, B, C, D, E and F, are sitting in a row, facing north. Only two people sit to the left of F. Only one person sits between D and E. F sits to the immediate left of D. A sits to the immediate right of C. B sits third to the right of A. Who sits at the extreme left end of the line?

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

C

Why this answer is correct

Given: Six people A, B, C, D, E and F are sitting in a row, facing north.

Only two people sit to the left of F.

Only one person sits between D and E.

F sits to the immediate left of D.

A sits to the immediate right of C.

B sits third to the right of A.

Now, the extreme left end is: C

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".
