Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Each number is a perfect square, and the second number in the pair is the square of the next even number after the square root of the first number.

Now,

For 196 : 256

⇒ √196 = 14, next even number = 16, 16² = 256

Similarly, for 324 : ?

⇒ √324 = 18, next even number = 20, 20² = 400

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given roll numbers: 123321, 654456, 112211, 123456

Rule: A palindrome number reads the same forward and backward.

Checking each number:

123321 → Same forward and backward 

654456 → Same forward and backward 

112211 → Same forward and backward 

123456 → Not the same when reversed 

Total palindrome numbers = 3

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

Given Statements:

All games are entertainment.

All entertainment is fun.

From statements:

Conclusions:

I. All games are fun → True (since games are part of fun)

II. Some fun is entertainment → True (since all entertainment is part of fun, so at least some fun is entertainment)

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

Given Statements:

All lions are wild.

Some wild are dangerous.

No dangerous is tame.

From statements:

Conclusions:

I. Some wild are not tame → True (since some wild are dangerous and no dangerous is tame)

II. Some lions are not tame → False (no direct link that lions are dangerous)

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

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

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1"

The logic followed here is:

thus, "325" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 4".

Given letters: AVSEBORINTO

Rule: Arrange the letters to form a meaningful word.

Step-by-step table:

The letter R is at position 5 from the left.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "8" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Each letter is shifted −2 in the English alphabetical order

Given: LINCOLN → JGLAMJL

Now, OBAMA → ?

So, OBAMA → MZYKY

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

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

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"

Given:

Length of a rectangle is increased by 10%.

Width of the rectangle is decreased by 10%.

Let the original length = 100 and width = 100.

Original area = 100 × 100 = 10000

New length = 100 + 10% of 100 = 110

New width = 100 − 10% of 100 = 90

New area = 110 × 90 = 9900

Change in area = 9900 − 10000 = −100

Percentage change = (−100 / 10000) × 100 = −1%

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Each letter is shifted +1 in the English alphabetical order

Given:  COLD → DPME

Now, HEAT → ?

So, HEAT → IFBU

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Given:

Length of the train = 150 m

Speed of the train = 54 km/h

Convert speed into m/s:

54 × (5/18) = 15 m/s

To cross a pole, the train must travel its own length.

Time = Distance ÷ Speed

= 150 ÷ 15

= 10 seconds

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Each letter is shifted +1 in the English alphabetical order

Given: MONEY → NPOFZ

Now, NPOFZ → ?

So, NPOFZ → OQPGA 

Hence, the correct answer is Option 2.

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Each letter is converted to its opposite letter (Atbash pattern: A ↔ Z, B ↔ Y, C ↔ X, …)

Given: BEAR → YVZI

Now, LION → ?

So, LION → ORLM

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Given word: PHYSICS

The 2^nd letter from the right is C, which has an alphabetical index of 3.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

The address given in the problem is,

12-B, Sunrise Apartments, Sector 14, Gurugram, Haryana - 122001

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:

Guntur is 2 days before Visakhapatnam.

Kakinada is 3 days after Visakhapatnam.

Kakinada = 20^th Feb

Now,

Visakhapatnam = 20^th Feb − 3 days = 17^th Feb

Guntur = 17^th Feb − 2 days = 15^th Feb

Hence, the correct answer is Option 3.

The logic followed here is:

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

So, 3 × 3 = 27

⇒ 3³ = 27

Similarly, 4 × 4 = ?

⇒ ? = 4⁴ = 256

Hence, the correct answer is 256.

The logic followed here is:

thus, "35" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 1".
