Reasoning PYQs

Given

Statement:

P ≤ Q < R < S

T > S > V ≥ W

Now,

Conclusions:

1. P < V → False (P ≤ Q < R < S > V ≥ W  No relation can be established between P and V)
2. R > W → False (P ≤ Q < R < S > V ≥ W No relation can be established between R and W)
3. Q < W → False (P ≤ Q < R < S > V ≥ W No relation can be established between Q and W)
4. P < T → True (P ≤ Q < R < S < T It gives P < T)

Here, Conclusions 4 follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

For find the opposite surface of ' 6', we need to compare the common surface in the given dices,

Now, symbol 6 is given in Dice 1 and Dice 2, 

So, From Dice 1 and Dice 2 and Dice 3

→ 6 is the common surface and 1, 2, 3, 4 is the adjacent surface.

So, the remaining '5' will be the opposite face of '6'.

Concept:

 

Given date: 08 June 2030.

In 2000 Years the odd day is 0,

Now, calculate the odd days from 2000 to 2029:

Normal years (non-leap) = 23 years → 23 odd days

Leap years = 7 years → 7 × 2 = 14 odd days

Total odd days = 23 + 14 = 37

Since 37 ÷ 7 = remainder 2,

The number of odd days from 2000 to 2029 is 2

Now,

Total odd days from January 2030 to June 08, 2030

• January = 31 days → 3 odd days
• February = 28 days → 0 odd days
• March = 31 days → 3 odd days
• April = 30 days → 2 odd days
• May = 31 days → 3 odd days
• June 1-7 = 7 days → 0 odd days
• June 8 = 1 day → 1 odd day

 

= 3 + 0 + 3 + 2 + 3 + 0 + 1 = 12

Since 12 ÷ 7 = remainder 5,

The odd days from January to June 8, 2030, are 5.

Now, add up all the odd days:

Odd days from 2000 to 2029 = 2

Odd days from January to June 08, 2030 = 5

Total odd days = 2 + 5 = 7

Since 7 odd days = 0 (Sunday cycle), the day on 08 June 2030 is Saturday.

Hence, the correct answer is "Saturday".

The correct order of words as they would appear in the English dictionary is:

2. Million
3. Millstone
4. Mimic
5. Mimicry
6. Minaret

The correct order is '2, 4, 1, 5, 3'.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option (1)".

BODMAS rule

Given,

 

Replacing the sign in equation, 

11 b 15 c 8 a 4 d 5 = ?

We, get 

11 + 15 - 8 ÷ 4 × 5

→11 + 15 - 2 × 5 

→11 + 15 - 10 = 16

The correct answer is "option 1".
