Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is :-

COUNTRY : FRXQWUB 

Similarly,

EXAMINE : ?

Hence, the correct answer is "HADPLQH".

Thus, the correct answer is Optrion 2.

The logic followed here is :-  

​Logic: Split into two equal halves and interchange them (block shifting).

Given, KITCAT : CATTIK 

Break KITCAT into two equal blocks: KIT | CAT

Now reverse the order of the two blocks: CAT | KIT

So, CATTIK

Similarly,

Split into two equal halves: PEN | TOP

Reverse their order: TOP | PEN

Result → TOP + NEP = TOPNEP

Correct answer: TOPNEP (Option 2)

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Letter ↓1, Number ↑1

Now, checking the options, we get:

Option 1) Z1# : Y2@ : X3$

Option 2) W4% : V5^ : U6&

Option 3) T7* : S8( : R9)

Option 4) Q10_ : P9@ : O8$

Here, numbers are decreasing, while in all other options numbers are increasing.

Hence, the one which is odd from the rest is "Option 4."

The logic followed here is:

Given:

dream focus build skill → trq, xnz, hmd, clv

focus logic dream → trq, jkp, xnz

trust logic build dream → xnj, clv, jkp, trq

Similarly,

build skill logic trust is codded as clv, hmd, jkp, xnj

Hence, the one which is odd from the rest is "Option 1."

Given:

x + 2y = 14

x − y = 5

Calculations:

From the second equation:

x = 5 + y

Substitute into the first equation:

5 + y + 2y = 14

5 + 3y = 14

3y = 9

y = 3

Now substitute back:

x = 5 + 3

x = 8

∴ The correct answer is 'Option 3.'

The logic followed here is:

Given:

If 6 $ 2 = 20, 

⇒ 6 x 2 = 12

⇒ 6 + 2 = 8

⇒ 12 + 8 = 20

and 4 $ 3 = 19,

⇒ 4 x 3 = 12

⇒ 4 + 3 = 7

⇒ 12 + 7 = 19

Similarly, 5 $ 2 = ?

⇒ 5 x 2 = 10

⇒ 5 + 2 = 7

⇒ 10 + 7 = 17

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2."$

The logic followed here is:

Given:

'SAVE' is coded as '★3#5', 

S → ★

A → 3

V → #

E → 5

and  'VASE' as '#3★5',

V → # 

A → 3 

S → ★ 

E → 5 

Similarly, for  'EVAS'

E → 5

V → #

A → 3

S → ★

Here, the code for EVAS is 5#3★

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4."

Given:

Let the two numbers be 3x and 5x (since ratio is 3 : 5).

Their sum is given as 64.

3x + 5x = 64

8x = 64

x = 8

Calculations:

Now find the numbers:

3x = 3 × 8 = 24

5x = 5 × 8 = 40

So, the two numbers are 24 and 40.

∴ The correct answer is "Option 1."

The logic followed here is:

Logic: the pattern is a @ b = a² + b

Given:

If 5 @ 3 = 28 , 

⇒ 5² + 3 = 25 + 3 = 28

and  4 @ 2 = 18,

⇒ 4² + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18 

Similarly,  6 @ 4 = ?

⇒ 6 @ 4 = 6² + 4

= 36 + 4

= 40

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1."

Family Chart:

Given: 

"She is the daughter of my mother's only son."

→ My mother’s only son = I (the man himself).

So, The girl is his daughter.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Family Chart:

Given:

P is the maternal uncle of Q.

Maternal uncle means mother’s brother.

So, P is Q’s mother’s brother.

Possible relation:

 

Since the information provided doesn't specify which sister we are talking about. So we can not extinguish the relation between them.

Hence, the correct answer is "Cannot be determined".

BODMAS Table: 

Given:

interchanging + & × and 3 & 9 

Now,checking the given equations, 

Option 1) (3+5)×9=48

⇒ (9×5)+3

= (45)+3

= 48

Option 2) (9+2)×3=10

⇒ (3×2)+9

= 6+9

= 15 ≠ 10

Option 3) (3+7)×9=60

⇒ (9×7)+3

= 63+3

= 66 ≠ 60

Option 4) (9+1)×3=15

⇒ (3×1)+9

= 3+9

= 12 ≠ 15

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given: a % b = 37, where a % b = a + 2b,

Now,checking the given equations, 

Option 1) 25,5

⇒ 25 + 2×5 = 25 + 10 = 35 (Not correct)

Option 2) 27, 5

⇒ 27 + 2×5 = 27 + 10 = 37 (Correct)

Option 3) 16, 10

⇒ 16 + 2×10 = 16 + 20 = 36 (Not correct)

Option 4) 27, 10

⇒ 27 + 2×10 = 27 + 20 = 47 (Not correct)

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

BODMAS Table: 

Given equation: 10 + 2 - 4 × 2 = ?

Now, if ‘+’, ‘-’, and ‘×’ are interchanged as:

= ×, - = +, × = ÷, then:

⇒ 10 × 2 + 4 ÷ 2 = ?

⇒ 20 + 2 = ?

⇒ 22

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given:

In a tournament of 7 players, each player plays every other player once. 

Formula used:

When each player plays every other player once, the number of matches is given by:

Number of matches = n(n − 1) / 2

Where n = number of players

Calculations: 

Here, n = 7

Substitute the value:

Number of matches = 7(7 − 1) / 2

= 7 × 6 / 2

= 42 / 2

= 21

So, the total number of matches = 21

∴ The correct answer is "Option 1."

The logic followed here is :-  

Given, Jurisprudence : Law 

Jurisprudence is the study or philosophy of Law.

Similarly, Epistemology : ?

Epistemology is the study or philosophy of Knowledge.

So, Epistemology : Knowledge

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

The logic followed here is :-  

Let’s check the letters between the first vowel and the last consonant in "SIGNATURE":

First vowel = I → 2^nd letter 

Last consonant = R → 8^th letter 

Now, the letters between them are:

G (3^rd), N (4^th), A (5^th), T (6^th), U (7^th) → total 5 letters

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

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

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

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

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is :-  

Given sequence:

Chaos → Conflict → Negotiation → Resolution → ?

Let’s understand the flow:

Chaos – Disorder

Conflict – Open disagreement

Negotiation – Attempt to solve the conflict

Resolution – Conflict is solved

Thus, the natural outcome is peace and balance.

Now, checking the given options:

Option 1) Justice

Justice – may or may not follow

Option 2) Harmony

Harmony – state of peace after resolution

Option 3) Stability

Stability – possible but broader term

Option 4) Law

Law – not directly part of the sequence.

Here, The most logical continuation is Harmony.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.
