DGD−ADA
ILI−FIF
ADA−XAX
ACY−XAX
ADA−WAW
ACY−WZW
Correct answer
ADA−XAX
Why this answer is correct
The logic follows here,
DGD − ADA
ILI − FIF
Applying same logic for ADA − XAX:
Hence, the correct answer is "option 1"
Select the triad which follows the same pattern as that followed by the two triads given below. Both triads follow the same pattern.
DF – HJ – LN
GI – KM –OQ
EB – IG – NL
AC – EG – IK
ME – QK – XQ
HI – MP – SU
Correct answer
AC – EG – IK
Why this answer is correct
Logic followed here is:
Logic: The positional values of all the letters in the triad form an arithmetic progression with a common difference of 2. Each letter is obtained by adding 2 to the positional value of the previous letter.
For the triad DF − HJ − LN:
For the triad GI − KM − OQ:
Applying to the same logic ,
The correct answer is AC − EG − IK.
Hence , the correct is "option 2".
If 2 is added to each odd digit and 1 is subtracted from each even digit in the number 163742, how many digits will appear more than once in the new number thus formed?
One
None
Three
Two
Correct answer
Two
Why this answer is correct
Given number: 163742
| Original Digit | 1 | 6 | 3 | 7 | 4 | 2 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Condition | +2 | −1 | +2 | +2 | −1 | −1 |
| New Digit | 3 | 5 | 5 | 9 | 3 | 1 |
New Number = 3 5 5 9 3 1
Therefore, two digits appear more than once.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option B"
X is the mother of F. F is the sister of T. U is the father of K. K is the son of T. How is X related to K?
Mother's sister
Mother's mother
Mother
Sister
Correct answer
Mother's mother
Why this answer is correct
The family tree diagram is ,
As shown in the family tree, X is the mother of T, and T is the mother of K. Therefore, X is the Mother's mother (maternal grandmother) of K.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

Why this answer is correct
The logic follows here,
Hence, the correct answer is "option 3"
What will come in place of ‘?’ in the following equation, if ‘+’ and ‘-‘ are interchanged and ‘x’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged?
94 ÷ 5 + 262 - 24 x 6 = ?
209
210
211
212
Correct answer
212
Why this answer is correct
The family tree diagram is ,
Signs Interchange:
| Original Sign | New Sign |
|---|---|
| + | − |
| − | + |
| × | ÷ |
| ÷ | × |
**Given Equation:**94 ÷ 5 + 262 − 24 × 6 = ?
After interchanging the signs,and applying BODMAS Rule the equation becomes:
= 94 × 5 − 262 + 24 ÷ 6
= 94 × 5 − 262 + 4
= 470 + 4 − 262
= 474 − 262
= 212
The final value of the equation is 212.
Hence, the correct answer is "option 4"
Refer to the following letter series and answer the question. (Counting to be done from left to right only)
(Left) R C X Z H M E D F T B S I K A Q Y O W G U (Right)
How many such consonants are there, each of which is immediately preceded by a consonant and also immediately followed by a consonant?
8
10
7
9
Correct answer
7
Why this answer is correct
Given: (Left) R C X Z H M E D F T B S I K A Q Y O W G U (Right)
Required Conditions: Consonant - Consonant - Consonant.
Hence, the correct answer is "option 3"
Seven people F, G, H, L, M, O and Q are sitting in a row facing north. Only five people sit between G and O. H sits to the immediate left of O. Only one person sits between H and F. Q sits immediately to the left of L. How many people sit between L and O?
Three
Four
One
Two
Correct answer
Three
Why this answer is correct
Given: Seven people, F, G, H, L, M, O, and Q, are sitting in a row facing north.
Final Seating Arrangement:
Three people sit between L and O.
Hence, the correct answer is "option 1"
All 165 people are standing in a row facing north. Rt is 134th from the right end while Kl is 18th from the left end. How many people are there between Rt and Kl?
13
12
16
14
Correct answer
13
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is:
Position of Rt from the left end = Total number of people − Position of Rt from the right end + 1
= 165 − 134 + 1
= 31 + 1
= 32
Number of people between Rt and Kl = Position of Rt from the left end − Position of Kl from the left end − 1
= 32 − 18 − 1
= 14 − 1
= 13
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.
