Reasoning PYQs

The figure which will look like the paper when unfolded is shown below:

Thus, option Figure 2 will look like the paper when unfolded.

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

7 – 14 – 28 – 38

7 × 2 + 14 = 28

14 + 14 = 28

28 = 28 (LHS = RHS);

28 + 10 = 38

38 = 38 (LHS = RHS)

And, 

4 – 8 – 16 – 26

4 × 2 + 8 = 16

8 + 8 = 16

16 = 16 (LHS = RHS);

16 + 10 = 26

26 = 26 (LHS = RHS)

So, checking each option one by one:

Option 1) 13 – 26 – 52 – 62

13 × 2 + 26 = 52

26 + 26 = 52

52 = 52 (LHS = RHS);

52 + 10 = 62

62 = 62 (LHS = RHS)

Option 2) 8 – 16 – 32 – 40

8 × 2 + 16 = 32

16 + 16 = 32

32 = 32 (LHS = RHS);

32 + 10 = 40

42 ≠ 40 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option 3) 6 – 12 – 24 – 36

6 × 2 + 12 = 24

12 + 12 = 24

24 = 24 (LHS = RHS);

24 + 10 = 36

34 ≠ 36 (LHS ≠ RHS)

Option 4) 15 – 25 – 50 – 60

15 × 2 + 25 = 50

30 + 25 = 50

55 ≠ 50 (LHS ≠ RHS);

50 + 10 = 60

60 = 60 (LHS = RHS)

Thus, out of all the options '13 – 26 – 52 – 62' follows the same logic as given.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

BODMAS Table: 

Given equation: 272 × 16 + 97 − 23 ÷ 4 = ?

Now, if ‘+’ and ‘-‘ and ‘×' and '÷’ are interchanged, then:

⇒ 272 ÷ 16 - 97 + 23 × 4 = ?

⇒ 17 - 97 + 92 = ?

⇒ 109 - 97 = 12

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: 1^st number × 8 = 2^nd number.

Now,

For, 28 : 224

⇒ (28 × 8) = 224.

For, 47 : 376

⇒ (47 × 8) = 376.

Similarly, for 31 ∶ ?

⇒ (31 × 8) = 248.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) KJI

Option 2) VUT

Option 3) AAY

Option 4) HGF

Thus, out of all the options 'AAY' is the odd one out.

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

Given word: 'SLANTED'

After arranged in alphabetical order:

After arranged in alphabetical order,

Fourth alphabet from the left end is: L,

Second alphabet from the right end is: S,

Now, there are 6 letters between L and S.

 

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

1. The top element shifts clockwise to immediate right section subsequently.

2. The bottom element shifts clockwise to immediate left section subsequently.

3) The bottom element is replaced by new element subsequently.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

According to the given information,

Thus, according to the given codes the code either 'sh' or 'ko' is for the word 'sunshine'.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The image embedded in the given figure is as shown below :

∴ Here, given figure is embedded in option figure 4.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The number of triangles in the given figure is shown below:

As marked there are total 9 triangles.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

1. One new element is added in each box subsequently.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

'TRIED' is coded as '54123'

'TREAD' is coded as '12365'

Thus, code of 'I' is '4'.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

BODMAS Table: 

Given equation: 121 × 11 – 28 ÷ 3 + 17 = ?

Now, if ‘+’ and ‘–‘ and ‘×’ and ‘÷’ are interchanged, then:

⇒ 121 ÷ 11 + 28  × 3 - 17 = ?

⇒ 11 + 84 – 17 = ?

⇒ 95 - 17 = 78

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Synonyms

Persist : Endure  → Persist is a synonym of Endure.

Similarly,

Stall : Delay  → Stall is a synonym of Delay.

Hence, the correct answer is "Delay".

The figure which will look like the paper when unfolded is shown below:

Thus, option Figure 1 will look like the paper when unfolded.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

Given series: L M N _ O L L M _ Q O L L _ N Q O _ L M N Q _ L L M

Option 1) QNMLO → L M N Q O L L M N Q O L L M N Q O L L M N Q O L L M → (It follows the pattern of: LMNQOL - LMNQOL - LMNQOL - LMNQOL - LM)

Option 2) QMNLO → L M N Q O L L M M Q O L L N N Q O L L M N Q O L L M → (It doesn't follow any pattern)

Option 3) QLMNO → L M N Q O L L M L Q O L L M N Q O N L M N Q O L L M → (It doesn't follow any pattern)

Option 4) NQLMO → L M N N O L L M Q Q O L L L N Q O M L M N Q O L L M → (It doesn't follow any pattern)

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:​

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

Decoding symbols:

Given: A × B ÷ C + D

A × B → A is the wife of B.

B ÷ C → B is the father of C.

C + D → C is the mother of D.

Thus, A is D's mother's mother or maternal grandmother.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: (1^st number)³ - 10 = 2^nd number.

Now,

For, 7 : 333

⇒ 7³ - 10 = 343 - 10 = 333.

For, 5 : 115

⇒ 5³ - 10 = 125 - 10 = 115.

Similarly, for other options:

1. (4, 54)

⇒ 4³ - 10 = 64 - 10 = 54.

2. (3, 24)

⇒ 3³ - 10 = 27 - 10 = 17 (Not 24).

3. (8, 492)

⇒ 8³ - 10 = 512 - 10  = 502 (Not 492).

4. (6, 226)

⇒ 6³ - 10 = 216 - 10 = 206 (Not 226).

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".
