Reasoning PYQs

BOAT : C40U

Similarly,

JUMP : ?

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Dictionary order of given words,

1. bench
2. beneath
3. bend
4. bent

Word "bent" will come last in a dictionary.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

This is a binary-like number system where:

Δ = 0

β = 1

Numbers are represented in binary form using Δ and β instead of 0 and 1.

Convert 81 to binary:

81 ÷ 2 = 40 remainder 1

40 ÷ 2 = 20 remainder 0

20 ÷ 2 = 10 remainder 0

10 ÷ 2 = 5 remainder 0

5 ÷ 2 = 2 remainder 1

2 ÷ 2 = 1 remainder 0

1 ÷ 2 = 0 remainder 1

So, binary (from last to first remainder) = 1010001

Replace 1 → β and 0 → Δ

Binary 1010001 → βΔβΔΔΔβ

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) (Saturn) → It is a planet.

Option 2) (Venus) → It is a planet.

Option 3) (Jupiter) → It is a planet.

Option 4) (Sun) → It is a star, not a planet.

Here, Saturn, Venus and Jupiter are planets, whereas Sun is a star.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Each letter is shifted 2 positions forward in the English alphabet.

Given,

W A T E R

So, WATER : Y C V G T

Now, V A P O R:

So, VAPOR : X C R Q T

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given:

Principal amount = ₹1,000

Simple Interest = ₹180

Time = 2 years

According to Question:

Simple Interest = (Principal × Rate × Time) / 100

180 = (1000 × Rate × 2) / 100

180 = (2000 × Rate) / 100

180 = 20 × Rate

Rate = 180 / 20

Rate = 9

So, Annual Rate of Simple Interest = 9 %

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: (First number × Second number) + (First number + Second number)

Given,

3 @ 4

⇒ (3 × 4) + (3 + 4)

⇒ 12 + 7 = 19

And, 5 @ 6

⇒ (5 × 6) + (5 + 6)

⇒ 30 + 11 = 41

Now, 6 @ 7:

⇒ (6 × 7) + (6 + 7)

⇒ 42 + 13 = 55

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

BODMAS Table: 

Given equation: 60 + 5 - 4 x 10 ÷ 2 = ?

Now, replace the symbols as given:

⇒ 60 ÷ 5 × 4 - 10 + 2 = ?

⇒ 60 ÷ 5 × 4 - 10 + 2 = ?

⇒ 12 × 4 - 10 + 2 = ?

⇒ 48 - 10 + 2 = ?

⇒ 38 + 2 = 40

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

BODMAS Table: 

Given equation: 12 − 4 + 2 × 2 = 12

Now, if '×' = '-', '-' = '+', '+' = '÷', '÷' = '×', then:

⇒ 12 + 4 ÷ 2 − 2 = 12

⇒ 12 + 2 − 2 = 12

⇒ 14 − 2 = 12

⇒ 12 

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Given:

Total friends = 10

Total bill amount = Rs. 200

According to Question:

2 friends did not pay.

So, Number of friends who paid = 10 − 2 = 8

Amount paid by each friend = 200 ÷ 8

= Rs. 25

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Correct Option - 2

Given: Italy is a beautiful village and China is a big building.

Words in the sentence that begin with a consonant: Italy is a beautiful village and China is a big building

Thus, there are 5 words that begin with a consonant.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2"

Correct Option - 2

The position and positional values or English Alphabets are:

Given: GBD, JFJ, MJP, PNV ?

 

The logic followed here is:

Thus, SRB will complete the series.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Correct Option - 4

 

Thus, option 4 is exactly the same as the one given.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Correct Option - 1

The position and positional values or English Alphabets are:

Given: SCEG, S F K P, S I Q Y, S L W H, ?

 

The logic followed here is:

Thus, SOCQ will complete the series.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Correct Option - 1

Statement: C= A ≤ T < D ≥ O; G ≥ D < S; T ≥ A

Conclusions:

I: A < O → False (As, A ≤ T < D ≥ O, there is no direct relationship between A and O)

II: C < G → True (C= A ≤ T < D ≤ G, it gives C < G)

Thus, only Conclusion II follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Correct Option - 3

Given: 2, 12, 36, 80, 150, ?

The logic followed here is:

Thus, 252 will complete the pattern.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Correct Option - 1

The logic followed here is:

Logic: a # b = a ÷ b

1. 10 # 5 = 5 ⇒ 10 ÷ 5 ≠ 2
2. 20 # 4 = 5 ⇒ 20 ÷ 4 = 5
3. 25 # 5 = 5 ⇒ 25 ÷ 5 = 5
4. 15 # 3 = 5 ⇒ 15 ÷ 3 = 5

Thus, 10 # 5 = 5 is the odd one out.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given:

Statement: The rapid advancement in gene editing technologies such as CRISPR offers immense potential for curing genetic disorders, but it also raises concerns about the ethical implications of editing the human genome.

Assumptions:

I. Gene editing technologies can potentially cure genetic disorders. - Implicit (The statement clearly implies these technologies offer immense potential for curing genetic disorders. If this were not true, the statement would collapse)

II. Ethical concerns are a natural consequence of advancing gene editing technologies - Implicit (The statement implies advancement raises ethical concerns. For this to be valid, we must assume that such technological progress leads to ethical issues)

III. The potential for gene editing to cure genetic disorders outweighs the ethical concerns - Not Implicit (The statement does not compare which is greater. It simply mentions both potential and concerns — no judgment is made)

So, only I and II are implicit.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given:

Statement: The bank has introduced a biometric login system.

Now,

Conclusions:

I. The bank wants to improve security. - True (Because biometric login systems are generally introduced to enhance security and reduce fraud. So it is reasonable to conclude that the bank’s intention is to improve security.)

II. Customers must carry biometric IDs. - False (Because biometric login usually uses fingerprints, face recognition, etc. — it does not necessarily require customers to carry separate biometric IDs.)

So, only Conclusion I follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Correct Option - 3

The position and positional values or English Alphabets are:

The logic followed here is: Letter are coded as their opposite letters.

ACFL : ZXUM

Similarly

Thus, BDEM : YWVN

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
