In a certain code language,
A + B means ‘A is the son of B’
A – B means ‘A is the brother of B’
A @ B means ‘A is the daughter of B’
A # B means ‘A is the father of B’
Based on the above, how is F related to O if ‘F # L – R @ O’?
Son
Father
Husband
Brother
Correct answer
Husband
Why this answer is correct
Given:
Let us first decode the given symbols and then draw a family tree.
| A is | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Symbol | + | − | @ | # |
| Meaning | Son | Brother | Daughter | Father |
| of B |
On checking the expression: F # L − R @ O
F # L - 'F # L' means 'F is the father of L'.
L − R - 'L − R' means 'L is the brother of R'.
R @ O - 'R @ O' means 'R is the daughter of O'.
Therefore, F is the father of L and R, and O is the mother of R. Thus, F is the husband of O.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.
Mr. Kell ranked 84th from the top and 123rd from the bottom in his class. How many students are there in his class?
206
432
453
244
Correct answer
206
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is:
Position of Mr. Kell from the top = 84th
Position of Mr. Kell from the bottom = 123rd
To find the Total number of students in the class, we use the formula:
Total number of students = (Rank from the top + Rank from the bottom) − 1
= (84 + 123) − 1
= 207 − 1
= 206
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.
Ritik is the brother of Kajal. Kajal is the wife of Abhishek. Abhishek is the father of Megha. Megha is the sister of Priti. How is Ritik related to Priti?
Father's brother
Mother's brother
Mother's father
Father's father
Correct answer
Mother's brother
Why this answer is correct
Given:
Based on the relationship description, let us draw a family tree.
Ritik is the brother of Kajal - Ritik (Male) and Kajal (Female) are siblings.
Kajal is the wife of Abhishek - Kajal and Abhishek (Male) are a married couple.
Abhishek is the father of Megha - Abhishek is the parent of Megha (Female).
Megha is the sister of Priti - Megha and Priti are siblings.
Since Kajal is the mother of Priti and Ritik is the brother of Kajal, Ritik is the Mother's brother of Priti.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.
Each letter in the word DANGEROUS is arranged in alphabetical order. How many letters are there in the English alphabetical order between the letter which is fourth from the left and the one which is fourth from the right in the new letter cluster thus formed?
8
7
6
9
Correct answer
7
Why this answer is correct
Given Word:
DANGEROUS
Arrange the letters in alphabetical order:
| Position | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Letter | A | D | E | G | N | O | R | S | U |
Required letters:
Letters between G and O in the English alphabet are:
H, I, J, K, L, M, N
Total letters between them = 7.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".
Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.
(Note: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)
(5, 12, 28)
(4, 11, 26)
(3, 10, 16)
(7, 16, 36)
(8, 19, 42)
(6, 13, 30)
Correct answer
(6, 13, 30)
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is:
Logic: Second Number = First Number + 7; Third Number = (Second Number × 2) + 4
For the first set (5, 12, 28)
⇒ 5 + 7 = 12.
⇒ (12 × 2) + 4 = 24 + 4 = 28.
For the second set (4, 11, 26)
⇒ 4 + 7 = 11.
⇒ (11 × 2) + 4 = 22 + 4 = 26.
Applying the same logic to the set in Option 4
(6, 13, 30)
⇒ 6 + 7 = 13.
⇒ (13 × 2) + 4 = 26 + 4 = 30.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.
Refer to the following series and answer the question (All numbers are single-digit numbers only. Counting is to be done from left to right.)
(Left) 7 9 8 5 1 8 4 3 5 6 9 7 4 5 2 4 1 3 4 8 7 6 4 (Right)
How many such odd digits are there each of which is immediately preceded by an even digit and also immediately followed by an odd digit?
Three
One
Two
More than three
Correct answer
More than three
Why this answer is correct
Given Series:
(Left) 7 9 8 5 1 8 4 3 5 6 9 7 4 5 2 4 1 3 4 8 7 6 4 (Right)
Required pattern:
Even Digit → Odd Digit → Odd Digit
Checking the series:
(Left) 7 9 8 5 1 1 8 4 4 3 5 5 6 9 7 7 4 5 2 2 4 1 3 3 4 8 7 6 4 (Right)
Odd digits satisfying the condition:
→ 5 in (8 5 1)
→ 3 in (4 3 5)
→ 9 in (6 9 7)
→ 1 in (4 1 3)
Therefore, there are 5 such odd digits.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4 — More than three".
WIND is related to VHOE in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, FIRE is related to EHSF. To which of the given options is GOLD related, following the same logic?
FNME
EMNF
FLNE
FMNF
Correct answer
FNME
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed in this pattern is a combination of specific alphabetical shifts for each letter position.
For 'WIND' related to 'VHOE':
| W(23) | I(9) | N(14) | D(4) |
|---|---|---|---|
| −1 ↓ | −1 ↓ | +1 ↓ | +1 ↓ |
| V(22) | H(8) | O(15) | E(5) |
For 'FIRE' related to 'EHSF':
| F(6) | I(9) | R(18) | E(5) |
|---|---|---|---|
| −1 ↓ | −1 ↓ | +1 ↓ | +1 ↓ |
| E(5) | H(8) | S(19) | F(6) |
Applying the same logic to 'GOLD':
| G(7) | O(15) | L(12) | D(4) |
|---|---|---|---|
| −1 ↓ | −1 ↓ | +1 ↓ | +1 ↓ |
| F(6) | N(14) | M(13) | E(5) |
Thus, GOLD is related to FNME.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.
If ‘A’ stands for ‘÷’, ‘B’ stands for ‘×’, ‘C’ stands for ‘+’ and ‘D’ stands for ‘−’, what will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following equation?
1 B 3 D 10 A 5 C 2 = ?
1
4
3
2
Correct answer
3
Why this answer is correct
Logic followed here is the substitution of letters with their assigned mathematical operators and then solving the expression using the BODMAS rule.
| Letter | A | B | C | D |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sign | ÷ | × | + | − |
Given Expression:
1 B 3 D 10 A 5 C 2 = ?
After replacing the letters with mathematical signs, we get:
= 1 × 3 − 10 ÷ 5 + 2
= 3 - 2 + 2
= 3
Therefore, the value that will come in place of the question mark is 3.
Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
In a row of 50 people facing north, Cara is 19th from the right end. If Gita sits 19th to the left of Cara, what is Gita’s position from the left end of the line?
16th
15th
13th
14th
Correct answer
13th
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is:
Total number of people in the row = 50
Position of Cara from the right end = 19th
Position of Gita relative to Cara = 19th to the left
Position of Gita from the right end = Position of Cara from the right end + 19
= 19 + 19
= 38th
Position of Gita from the left end = (Total number of people − Position of Gita from the right end) + 1
= (50 − 38) + 1
= 12 + 1
= 13th
Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.
