Given equation: 35 % 4 % 12 % 3 % 6 % 5 % 5

BODMAS Table: 

Let's check each option one by one.

Option 1) +, ̶ , ÷, ×, =, +

Given: 35 % 4 % 12 % 3 % 6 % 5 % 5

After interchanging the signs we get;

⇒ 35 + 4 - 12 ÷ 3 × 6 = 5 + 5

⇒ 35 + 4 - 4 × 6 = 5 + 5

⇒ 35 + 4 - 24 = 5 + 5

⇒ 39 -24 = 10

⇒ 15 ≠ 10

⇒ LHS ≠ RHS

Option 2)  ̶ , +, ×, =, ÷, +

Given: 35 % 4 % 12 % 3 % 6 % 5 % 5

After interchanging the signs we get;

⇒ 35 - 4 + 12 × 3 = 6 ÷ 5 + 5

⇒ 35 - 4 + 12 × 3 = 1.2 + 5

⇒ 35 - 4 + 36 = 1.2 + 5

⇒ 71 - 4 = 6.2

⇒ 67 ≠ 6.2

⇒ LHS ≠ RHS

Option 3)  ̶ , +, ÷, ×, =, +

Given: 35 % 4 % 12 % 3 % 6 % 5 % 5

After interchanging the signs we get;

⇒ 35 - 4 + 12 ÷ 3 × 6 = 5 + 5

⇒ 35 - 4 + 4 × 6 = 5 + 5

⇒ 35 - 4 + 24 = 5 + 5

⇒ 59 - 4  = 10

⇒ 55 ≠ 10

⇒ LHS ≠ RHS

Option 4)  ̶ , +, ÷, =, ×, +

Given: 35 % 4 % 12 % 3 % 6 % 5 % 5

After interchanging the signs we get;

⇒ 35 - 4 + 12 ÷ 3 = 6 × 5 + 5

⇒ 35 - 4 + 4 = 6 × 5 + 5

⇒ 35 - 4 + 4 = 30 + 5

⇒ 39 - 4 = 35

⇒ 35 = 35

⇒ LHS = RHS

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Given: Seven people, A, B, C, D, E, F and G, are sitting in a straight row, facing north.

1. Only 2 people sit to the left of E.

2. G is an immediate neighbour of E.

3) Only 3 people sit between G and F.

4. B sits to the immediate right of F. 

5. A sits to the immediate left of D.

And, C will sit at the remaining place.

So, 'A' sits to the immediate right of E.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: The first word is the name of game and the second word is used to play that game.

Here,

Cricket : Bat → A bat is used to play cricket.

Similarly,

Tennis : Racquet → Racquet is used to play tennis.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3"

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Darken part of the image decrease by one at every step.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Square of 2^nd number = 1^st number.

Now,

For, 1444 ∶ 38

⇒ (38)²

⇒ 1444.

For, 1225 ∶ 35

⇒ (35)2

⇒ 1225.

Similarly, for ? ∶ 47  

⇒ (47)²

⇒ 2209.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4"

The logic followed here is:

So, '149' is the missing number in the given series.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: 2^nd number × 19 = 1^st number.

Now,

For, 133 ∶ 7

⇒ (7 × 19) = 133.

For, 247 ∶ 13

⇒ (13 × 19) = 247.

Similarly, for ? ∶ 19  

⇒ (19 × 19) = 361

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4"

The image embedded in given figure is as shown below:

Hence, The correct answer is "Option 2".

The position and positional values of English Alphabets are:

TWGC, PUFZ, ?, HQDT, DOCQ

The logic followed in the given series is:

Here, 'LSEW' is the missing term.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given Equation: 62 B 2 D 45 A 5 C 7 = ?

BODMAS Rule:

Decoding the given information:

 

Now replacing the sign from left to right using BODMAS Rule, we get:

⇒ 62 × 2 - 45 ÷ 5 + 7 = ?

⇒ 62 × 2 - 9 + 7 = ?

⇒ 124 - 9 + 7 = ?

⇒ 131 - 9 = 122

Hence, the correct option is "Option 4".

TB Solution:

Given Equation: 16 B 5 D 16 A 8 C 10 = ?

BODMAS Rule:

Decoding the given information:

 

Now replacing the sign from left to right using BODMAS Rule, we get:

⇒ 16 × 5 - 16 ÷ 8 + 10 = ?

⇒ 16 × 5 - 2 + 10 = ?

⇒ 80 - 2 + 10 = ?

⇒ 90 - 2 = 88

Hence, the correct option is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

thus, "1176" will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 4".

Given

Statements:

Some pianos are guitars.

All guitars are flutes.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:

Conclusion:

I) Some pianos are flute - True (Some pianos are guitars and all guitars are flutes implies that some pianos are flute)

II) No guitar is a piano - False (Some pianos are guitars implies also that some guitars are definitely piano)

So, only Conclusion I follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Given equation: 30 × 6 ÷ 15 + 7 + 40 = 50.

BODMAS Table: 

Let's check each option one by one.

Option 1) 15, 40

Given:  30 × 6 ÷ 15 + 7 + 40 = 50

After interchanging the numbers we get:

⇒ 30 × 6 ÷ 40 + 7 + 15 = 50

⇒ 30 × (3 / 20) + 7 + 15 = 50

⇒ (9/2) + 7 + 15 = 50

⇒ (53 / 2) ≠ 50

⇒ LHS ≠ RHS

Option 2) 15, 30

Given:  30 × 6 ÷ 15 + 7 + 40 = 50

After interchanging the numbers we get:

⇒ 15 × 6 ÷ 30 + 7 + 40 = 50

⇒ 15 × (1 / 5) + 7 + 40 = 50

⇒ 3 + 7 + 40 = 50

⇒ 50 = 50

⇒ LHS = RHS

Option 3) 6, 30

Given:  30 × 6 ÷ 15 + 7 + 40 = 50

After interchanging the numbers we get:

⇒ 6 × 30 ÷ 15 + 7 + 40 = 50

⇒ 6 × 2 + 7 + 40 = 50

⇒ 12 + 7 + 40 = 50

⇒ 59 ≠ 50

⇒ LHS ≠ RHS

Option 4) 40, 50

Given:  30 × 6 ÷ 15 + 7 + 40 = 50

After interchanging the numbers we get:

⇒ 30 × 6 ÷ 15 + 7 + 50 = 40

⇒ 30 × (2 / 5) + 7 + 50 = 40

⇒ 12 + 7 + 50 = 40

⇒ 69 ≠ 40

⇒ LHS ≠ RHS

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2"

**Given

Statements:

**

All Barbies are Snow-whites.

Some Barbies are Ariels.

Some Ariels are Doraemons.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given statement is:

Conclusions:

I. Some Doraemons are Snow-whites - False (Because, No definite relation is given between Doraemons and Snow-Whites, so it can be possibility only)

II. Some Barbies are Doraemons - False (Because, No definite relation is given between Barbies and Doraemons, so it can be possibility only)

III. Some Ariels are Snow-whites - True (All Barbies are Snow-whites and some Barbies are Ariels implies that some Ariels are Snow-whites)

So, only conclusion III follows.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Family Chart:

Given: 

M is the daughter of R.

Z is the husband of M.

X is the son of R.

Z is the son-in-law of Y.

So, X is the 'Son' of Y.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

Given: 

Mehar drives 19 km East from his home.

He then takes a left turn and drives 11 km.

He again takes a left turn and drives 19 km.

So, he is 11 km from the starting point in a straight line.

The image embedded in given figure is as shown below:

Hence, "Option 2" is the correct answer.

The image embedded in given figure is as shown below:

Hence, "Option 3" is the correct answer.

The triangles are:

So, there are '11' triangles in the given figure.
