Reasoning PYQs

For 'ON' related to 'MG':

For 'UC' related to 'SV':

Applying the same logic to find the term related to 'WW':

Thus, YD is related to WW.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

For the set '(SK, WO, AS)':

For the set '(BG, FK, JO)':

Applying the same logic to the options:

For Option 1: '(CO, GS, KW)':

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

The given year is 2011, which is an Ordinary Year.

We need to count the odd days starting from 2011 until the sum is a multiple of 7:

• 2011: 1 odd day
• 2012: 2 odd days (Leap Year)
• 2013: 1 odd day
• 2014: 1 odd day
• 2015: 1 odd day
• 2016: 2 odd days (Leap Year)
• 2017: 1 odd day
• 2018: 1 odd day
• 2019: 1 odd day
• 2020: 2 odd days (Leap Year)
• 2021: 1 odd day

Sum of odd days = 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 = 14 odd days.

Since 14 is divisible by 7 (14 ÷ 7 = 2, with 0 remainder), the next year, 2022, will have the same calendar as 2011.

Both 2011 and 2022 are Ordinary Years, so the calendars are identical.

The calendar for the year 2011 will be the same as 2022.

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 4”.

Alternate Method

There is a specific pattern for the repetition of calendars:

1. If the year is Leap year + 1, the calendar repeats after 6 years.
2. If the year is Leap year + 2, the calendar repeats after 11 years.
3. If the year is Leap year + 3, the calendar repeats after 11 years.
4. If the year is a Leap year, the calendar repeats after 28 years.

The year 2011 follows the Leap year + 3 rule (as 2008 was a Leap year):

2011 = 2008 + 3

Repetition interval = 11 years.

Repeating year = 2011 + 11 = 2022.

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 4”.

5 persons J, K, L, P and Q are sitting in a row facing north (not necessarily in the same order).

1. L is second to the left of J.
2. L is second to the right of P.
3. K is second to the left of Q. 

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 2”.

7 students P, Q, R, S, T, U and V are sitting around a circular table facing towards the centre (not necessarily in the same order).

1. V is fourth to the right of Q.
2. Considering towards left of S, there is only 1 student between S and Q.
3. T is not the immediate neighbour of V or S.
4. P is fourth to the right of U. 

Considering towards left of T, three students are sitting between T and S.

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 1”.

Given word: CATASTROPHE

(1) ATTACHED → Cannot be formed as it requires the letter "D", which is not present in the given word.

(2) CARPET → Can be formed as all the required letters are present in the given word. (3) CHEAP → Can be formed as all the required letters are present in the given word. (4) HORSE → Can be formed as all the required letters are present in the given word.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 1.

Given word: CONGRATULATIONS

(1) GROAN → Can be formed as all the letters (G, R, O, A, N) are present in the given word.

(2) CONSENT → Can not be formed as it requires the letter "E", which is not present in the given word. (3) UNIFORM → Can not be formed as it requires the letters "F" and "M", which are not present in the given word. (4) RENT → Can not be formed as it requires the letter "E", which is not present in the given word.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Logic followed here is,

325 + 15 = 340

340 + 15 = 355

355 + 15 = 370

370 + 15 = 385

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 2”.

Logic followed here is,

601 - 4 = 597

597 - 8 = 589

589 - 12 = 577

577 - 16 = 561

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 1”.

The logic followed here is,

8 × 3 − 1 = 23

23 × 4 − 2 = 90

90 × 5 − 3 = 447

447 × 6 − 4 = 2678

2678 × 7 − 5 = 18741

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3';

AF150 : ZE270 → 

TL200 : SK320 → 

Similarly, 

? : JP190 → 

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 4'.

LM230 : ER330 → 

TU310 : MZ410 → 

Similarly,

JK420: ? → 

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Second Number = First Number − 50

For the second pair 6368 : 6318

⇒ 6368 − 50 = 6318.

For the third pair 6850 : 6800

⇒ 6850 − 50 = 6800.

Applying the same logic to the first pair

4543 : ?

⇒ 4543 − 50 = 4493.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Second Number = (First Number × 2) − 9

For the first pair 347 : 685

⇒ (347 × 2) − 9

⇒ 694 − 9 = 685.

For the third pair 610 : 1211

⇒ (610 × 2) − 9

⇒ 1220 − 9 = 1211.

Applying the same logic to the second pair ? : 1903

⇒ (Missing Number × 2) − 9 = 1903

⇒ Missing Number × 2 = 1903 + 9

⇒ Missing Number × 2 = 1912

⇒ Missing Number = 1912 ÷ 2 = 956.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 2”.

Time interval from 2:20 PM to 8:20 PM = 6 hours.

Initial error at 2:20 PM = 6 minutes slow.

Final error at 8:20 PM = 12 minutes slow.

Total time lost during this interval = 12 minutes − 6 minutes = 6 minutes.

Rate of losing time = 6 minutes ÷ 6 hours = 1 minute per hour.

Time taken to lose 6 minutes = 6 minutes ÷ 1 minute/hour = 6 hours.

Correct time = 2:20 PM − 6 hours = 8:20 AM.

Hence, the clock shows the correct time at 8:20 AM.

Hence, the correct answer is “Option 1”.
