Reasoning PYQs

The logic followed here is:

PCI is to Digital Payment → PCI sets standards and infrastructure for the digital payment ecosystem.

Similarly,

UIDAI is to...? → UIDAI provides national digital identity infrastructure used for biometric identity verification and authentication. 

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

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

Thus, as marked there are a total of 16 triangles.

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

1. In the left element the number of the sides is increasing subsequently.

2. No change in the circle element.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

1. The top elements are opposite pairs according to the English alphabetic series.

2) The bottom elements are opposite pairs according to the English alphabetic series.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

1. In each box two elements at the sides interchange positions. 

2. The center arrow element rotates 90º clockwise subsequently.

3. No change in the rest of the elements. 

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is :-

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

As 2 is common on both the dice I and II, it is clear that 6, 4, 1, and 3 are adjacent to it, and the remaining i.e. 5 will be opposite to it.

Opposite pairs:

6 → 1

4 → 3

2 → 5

So, checking each option one by one:

Option 1) 

→ Can be the dice when opened, because all the sides are of adjacent sides.

Option 2) 

→ Cannot be the dice when opened, because the opposite pairs '3' and '4' cannot be at the adjacent sides.

Option 3) 

→ Cannot be the dice when opened, because the '3' and '5' are not the required opposite pairs.

Option 4) 

→ Cannot be the dice when opened, because the opposite pairs '6' and '1' cannot be at the adjacent sides.

Hence, "Option 1" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) Nile → River

Option 2) Everest → Mountain

Option 3) Ganga → River

Option 4) Amazon → River

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

1. The elements flipped vertically subsequently.

Thus, the final series is:

Hence, "Option 4" is the correct answer.

In all the figures, except (4), the number of triangular boxes is 8, while in figure (4), number of triangular boxes are 10.

Hence, ‘option 4’ is the correct answer.

1. B and D are moved alternatively. B is rotated 90° anticlockwise and D is rotated 90°clockwise.

In next step B is rotated 90° clockwise and D is rotated 90°anticlockwise.

 

2. F and Z are moved alternatively. Z is rotated 90° clockwise and F is rotated 90° clockwise.

In next step Z and F rotated anticlockwise.

3. Middle figure is rotated 90° clockwise in each step.

So, next figure is;

Hence, option (2) is the correct answer.

According to the question, after 3 and 9 are interchanged and - and × are interchanged:

Let's check options one by one:

Option 1) 12 ÷ 9 - 2 × 7 + 3 = 10

According to the question, after 3 and 9 are interchanged and - and × are interchanged:

⇒ 12 ÷ 3 × 2 - 7 + 9 = 10

⇒ 4 × 2 - 7 + 9 = 10

⇒ 8  - 7 + 9 = 10

⇒ 17 - 7 = 10

Option 2) 1 - 9 × 10 ÷ 4 + 3 = 32

According to the question, after 3 and 9 are interchanged and - and × are interchanged:

⇒  1 × 3 - 10 ÷ 4 + 9 = 32

⇒ 3 - 2.5 + 9 = 32

⇒ 12 -  2.5 = 9.5 ≠ 32

Option 3) 9 ÷ 2 × 1 - 3 + 5 = 15

According to the question, after 3 and 9 are interchanged and - and × are interchanged:

⇒ 3 ÷ 2 -1 × 9 + 5 = 15

⇒ 1.5 - 9 + 5 = 15

⇒ 6.5 - 9 = - 2.5 ≠ 15

Option 4) 9 ÷ 4 × 3 + 1 - 6 = 18

According to the question, after 3 and 9 are interchanged and - and × are interchanged:

⇒ 3 ÷ 4 - 9 + 1 × 6 = 18 

⇒ 0.75 - 9 + 6 = 18

⇒ 6.75 - 9 = - 2.25 ≠ 18.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The image embedded in given figure is as shown below:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Statements:

All pants are shirts.

All shirts are jackets.

Some jackets are sweaters.

The least possible Venn diagram is given:

Conclusions:

I. Some jackets are pants - True (Because, All pants are shirts and All shirts are jackets, it implies that same jackets are pant as well).

II. Some sweaters are shirts - **False (**Because, there is no direct relation is given between sweaters and shirts, it can be possible only).

III. No pant is a sweater - False (Because, there is no direct relation is given between sweaters and pant , it can be possible only).

Thus, Only conclusion I follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Statements:

Some teachers are dancers.

All dancers are beautiful.

All teachers are honest.

The least possible Venn diagram is given:

Conclusions:

I. Some teachers are beautiful - True (Because, Some teachers are dancers and All dancers are beautiful, it implies that the common part of teacher and dancer is Some teacher are beautiful).

II. Some dancers are honest - True (Because, Some teachers are dancers and All teachers are honest, it implies that the common part of teacher and dancer is Some dancers are honest). 

Thus, Both conclusions I and II follow.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Given: 108 × 2 − 14 ÷ 6 + 27 = ?

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

⇒ 108 ÷ 2 + 14 × 6 - 27 = ?

⇒ 54 + 84 - 27 = ?

⇒ 138 - 27 = 111.

Hence, the correct answer is "option 3".

Given Equation: 19 L 95 N 5 J 35 P 7 = 333

BODMAS Rule:

Decoding the given information:

Let's check options one by one.

Option 1) (P and N)

According to the question, after ‘P’ and ‘N’ are interchanged:

⇒ 19 ÷  95 + 5 - 35 × 7 = 333

⇒ 0.2 + 5 - 245 = 33

⇒ 5.2 - 245 = - 239.8 ≠ 333.

Option 2) (P and L)

According to the question, after ‘P’ and ‘L’ are interchanged:

⇒ 19 L 95 N 5 J 35 P 7 = 333

⇒ 19 + 95 × 5 - 35 ÷ 7 = 333

⇒ 19 + 475 - 5 = 333

⇒ 494 - 5 = 489 ≠ 333.

Option 3) (N and L) 

According to the question, after ‘N’ and ‘L’ are interchanged:

⇒ 19 × 95 ÷  5 - 35 + 7 = 333 

⇒ 19 × 19 - 35 + 7 = 333

⇒ 361 - 35 + 7 = 333

⇒ 368 - 35 = 333

Option 4) (J and N) 

According to the question, after ‘N’ and ‘J’ are interchanged:

⇒ 19 ÷ 95 - 5 ×  35 + 7 = 333

⇒ 0.2 - 175 + 7 = 333

⇒ 7.2 - 175 =  - 167.8 ≠ 333.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given date: 14 September 3041.

Now,

Till 3000 → 2800 + 200

In 2800 Years the odd day is 0,

In 200 Years the odd day is 3,

In 40 Years (10 Leap Years and 30 Ordinary years) the odd day is 10 × 2 + 30 × 1 = 20 + 30 = 50 odd days,

⇒ 0 + 3 + 50

⇒ 53 odd days.

And, from 1^st Jan 3041 to 14 September 3041:

⇒ 31(Jan) + 28(Feb, 3041 is not a leap year) + 31(March) + 30(April) + 31(May) + 30(June) + 31(July) + 31(August) + 14(September) = 257 days.

Total odd days → 53 + 257 = 310 days = 310/7 = 44 weeks and 2 odd days.

→ 2 represents Tuesday.

So, 14 September 3041 is Tuesday.

Hence, the correct answer is "Tuesday".

The logic followed here is: 

For,  ‘PRICE’ is coded as EGRTK

For, ‘STAGE’ is coded as IGUVC.

Similarly,   ‘RIGHT’ be coded as ?

Thus,  ‘RIGHT’ be coded as JVTKI.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Association with their primary function or purpose.

Here,

Red Cross : Hospital → Red Cross is an organization associated with Hospitals and medical aid.

Similarly,

Wheel : Progress → Wheel is often associated with Progress and advancement in technology and transportation.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".
