Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is :-

From the given two different cubes the adjacent sides are as shown below :

As T is common on both the dices, it is clear that S, M, P, and R are adjacent to it, and the remaining i.e. C will be opposite to it.

Opposite pairs:

M → R

S → P

T → C

So, the opposite side of "M" will be side "R".

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

1. All the elements shift clockwise including the center element.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

Similarly,

Stagnate : Flow → Stagnate is the opposite of Flow.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Given: 18 - 23 × 455 ÷ 7 + 28 = 377

According to the question, after interchanging the signs:

Option 1) + and ×

18 - 23 × 455 ÷ 7 + 28 = 377 ⇒ 18 - 23 + 455 ÷ 7 × 28 = 377

⇒ 18 - 23 + 455 ÷ 7 × 28 = 377

⇒ 18 - 23 + 65 × 28 = 377

⇒ 18 + 1820 - 23 = 377

⇒ 1838 - 23 = 377

⇒ 1815 ≠ 377 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  2) − and ×

18 - 23 × 455 ÷ 7 + 28 = 377 ⇒ 18 × 23 - 455 ÷ 7 + 28 = 377

⇒ 18 × 23 - 455 ÷ 7 + 28 = 377

⇒ 18 × 23 - 65 + 28 = 377

⇒ 414 + 28 - 65 = 377

⇒ 442 - 65 = 377

⇒ 377 = 377 (LHS = RHS)

Option  3) − and +

18 - 23 × 455 ÷ 7 + 28 = 377 ⇒ 18 + 23 × 455 ÷ 7 - 28 = 377

⇒ 18 + 23 × 455 ÷ 7 - 28 = 377

⇒ 18 + 23 × 65 - 28 = 377

⇒ 18 + 1495 - 28 = 377

⇒ 1513 - 28 = 377

⇒ 1485 ≠ 377 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option  4) ÷ and −

18 - 23 × 455 ÷ 7 + 28 = 377 ⇒ 18 ÷ 23 × 455 - 7 + 28 = 377

⇒ 18 ÷ 23 × 455 - 7 + 28 = 377

⇒ 0.78 × 455 - 7 + 28 = 377

⇒ 354.9 + 28 - 7 = 377

⇒ 382.9 - 7 = 377

⇒ 375.9 ≠ 377 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

Given: 4 − 12 + 3 ÷ 12 × 6 = ?

According to the question, after ‘+’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged and ‘×’ and ‘–’ are interchanged:

4 − 12 + 3 ÷ 12 × 6 = ? ⇒ 4 × 12 ÷ 3 + 12 - 6 = ?

⇒ 4 × 12 ÷ 3 + 12 - 6 = ?

⇒ 4 × 4 + 12 - 6 = ?

⇒ 16 + 12 – 6 = ?

⇒ 28 – 6 = ?

⇒ 22 = ?

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

10 is related to 15

10 + 10 ÷ 2 = 15

10 + 5 = 15

15 = 15 (LHS = RHS)

And,

42 is related to 63

42 + 42 ÷ 2 = 63

42 + 21 = 63

63 = 63 (LHS = RHS)

Similarly,

22 is related to ?

22 + 22 ÷ 2 = ?

22 + 11 = ?

33 = ?

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

Option 4) CHMMB → L M B A C H O L M B A C H O L M M A C H O L M B A C H O L B → (It doesn't follow any pattern)

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

(7, 9, 48)

(7 + 9) × 3 = 48 

16 × 3 = 48

48 = 48 (LHS = RHS)

And,

(6, 8, 42)

(6 + 8) × 3 = 42 

14 × 3 = 42

42 = 42 (LHS = RHS)

So, checking each option one by one:

Option 1) (8, 10, 47)

(8 + 10) × 3 = 47 

18 × 3 = 47

54 ≠ 47 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option 2) (9, 11, 56)

(9 + 11) × 3 = 56 

20 × 3 = 56

60 ≠ 56 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option 3) (11, 13, 72)

(11 + 13) × 3 = 72 

24 × 3 = 72

72 = 72 (LHS = RHS)

Option 4) (10, 12, 54)

(10 + 12) × 3 = 54 

22 × 3 = 54

66 ≠ 54 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Thus, out of all the options, '(11, 13, 72)' follows the same logic as given.

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) 2 – 4 – 8

2 × 4 = 8

8 = 8 (LHS = RHS)

Option 2)  2 – 2 – 4

2 × 2 = 4

4 = 4 (LHS = RHS)

Option 3) 3 – 2 – 5

3 × 2 = 5

6 ≠ 5 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option 4) 1 – 3 – 3

1 × 3 = 3

3 = 3 (LHS = RHS)

Thus, out of all the options, '3 – 2 – 5' is the odd one out.

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statements is as shown below :

Conclusions:

I. No box is a utensil → Does not follow (As some boxes are cartons, all cartons are papers and some cartons are utensils. As no direct relation is given between boxes and utensils, therefore it is false.)

II. Some papers are utensils → Follow (As all cartons are papers and some cartons are utensils. As whole cartons comes in papers and has some part common with utensils, therefore it is true.)

∴ Here, Only conclusion (II) follows.

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

(79, 58, 62)

(58 + 62) ÷ 2 + 19 = 79 

120 ÷ 2 + 19 = 79

60 + 19 = 79

79 = 79 (LHS = RHS)

And,

(54, 33, 37)

(33 + 37) ÷ 2 + 19 = 54 

70 ÷ 2 + 19 = 54

35 + 19 = 54

54 = 54 (LHS = RHS)

So, checking each option one by one:

Option 1) (59, 33, 43)

(33 + 43) ÷ 2 + 19 = 59 

76 ÷ 2 + 19 = 59

38 + 19 = 59

57 ≠ 59 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option 2) (47, 36, 41)

(36 + 41) ÷ 2 + 19 = 47 

77 ÷ 2 + 19 = 47

38.5 + 19 = 47

57.5 ≠ 47 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option 3) (66, 45, 49)

(45 + 49) ÷ 2 + 19 = 66 

94 ÷ 2 + 19 = 66

47 + 19 = 66

66 = 66 (LHS = RHS)

Option 4) (43, 25, 30)

(25 + 30) ÷ 2 + 19 = 43 

55 ÷ 2 + 19 = 43

47.5 + 19 = 43

66.5 ≠ 43 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Thus, out of all the options, '(66, 45, 49)' follows the same logic as given.

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

According to the given information,

Thus, according to the given codes the code 'mi' is for the word 'chair'.

3^rd column elements shift to the 3^rd column diagonally.

2) Second box series →

Left bottom corner elements is replaced by new element.

2^nd column elements shift to the 3^rd column.

First element of the 3^rd column shift to the 2^nd column.

1^st row element shift to the bottom center position.

Second element of 3^rd column shift to the opposite side diagonally.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

'BELL' is written as 'MKFA'

And,

'BOND' is written as 'EMPA'

Similarly,

'BLEW’ will be written as

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.
