Reasoning PYQs

The address given is:

House No. 87, Sector 9,Chandigarh - 160009

Let's match this address with the given options one by one to figure out which one is exactly the same.

So, the address that is exactly the same as the given address is in option (3).

Hence, the correct option is "option (3)".

Given:

The seminar in Ranchi happened 3 days before Patna.

The seminar in Bhubaneswar happened 2 days after Patna.

Ranchi's seminar was on 11^th August.

Now, 

Ranchi = 11^th August

Patna = 11 + 3 days = 14^th August

Bhubaneswar = 14 + 2 days = 16^th August

Therefore, Bhubaneswar's seminar was on 16^th August.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "56" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Thus, 894 is the incorrect term in the series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: When a number is increased by x% and then decreased by the same x%, the net change = (x^2 / 100)% decrease.

Calculation:

Let the original number = 100

After 20% increase → 100 + 20 = 120

After 20% decrease → 120 − 24 = 96

Net change = 100 − 96 = 4% decrease

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: 2^nd number = (1^st number)² + 1

Given: 7 → 50

7² + 1 = 49 + 1 = 50

8 → 65

8² + 1 = 64 + 1 = 65

So, 9 → ?

? = 9² + 1 = 81 + 1 = 82

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

BODMAS Table: 

Given equation: 8 & 2 $ 3 = 14

Now, if & stands for '+' and $ stands for '×', then:

⇒ 8 + 2 × 3 = 14

⇒ 8 + 6 = 14

⇒ 14

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic is based on types of computer components.

Option 1: Motherboard – Hardware component of a computer.

Option 2: RAM – Hardware memory component of a computer.

Option 3: Operating System – Software that manages computer operations.

Option 4: Monitor – Hardware output device of a computer.

Among these, Operating System is the only software, while the others are hardware components.

Hence, the odd one out is Option 3.

Logic: Perfect Square Numbers.

Option 1: 289

289 = 17² (Perfect Square)

Option 2: 324

324 = 18² (Perfect Square)

Option 3: 204

204 (Not a Perfect Square)

Option 4: 169

169 = 13² (Perfect Square)

289, 324, and 169 are perfect square numbers, while 204 is not a perfect square.

Hence, the odd one out is Option 3.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Same words have the same code in all sentences.

Given codes:

'trick on him twice' → wl, dl, kl, sl

'him slow twice' → kl, jl, sl

'case on him' → pl, dl, kl

Therefore, 'on slow trick' → dl, jl, wl

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: In compound interest, Amount for n+1 year ÷ Amount for n year = 1 + (R/100)

Given: Amount after 2 years = 6720, Amount after 3 years = 7392

Rate calculation:

7392 ÷ 6720 = 1 + (R/100)

1.1 = 1 + (R/100)

R/100 = 0.1

R = 10%

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Sum of squares of the digits

34 : 25

3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25

53 : ?

5² + 3² = 25 + 9 = 34

Missing number = 34

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

Given Statements:

No tables are chairs.

All chairs are wooden.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is:

Conclusions:

I. Some wooden things are not tables – True (All chairs are wooden, and chairs are not tables, so some wooden things are definitely not tables.)

II. No tables are wooden – False (There is no information about tables being wooden or not.)

Hence, only conclusion I follows.

The correct answer is "Option 1".

Given Statements:

All men are intelligent.

No intelligent person is poor.

Some poor are hardworking.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is:

Conclusions:

I. Some men are hardworking – False (There is no information connecting Men with Hardworking.)

II. No man is poor – True (All men are intelligent, and no intelligent person is poor.)

Hence, only conclusion II follows.

The correct answer is "Option 2".

Given word: ACCUSATION

Rule:

The word must be formed using the letters available in ACCUSATION, and each letter can be used only as many times as it appears in the given word.

Step-by-step table:

Checking the options:

Thus, CAUTION can be formed from the letters of ACCUSATION.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

The logic followed here is:

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

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

thus, "270" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

 Given: MODI → OQFK:

So, each letter is shifted +2.

Similarly, For BAPU:

So, BAPU → DCRW

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

thus, "343" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

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

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".
