Reasoning PYQs

The logic follows here is:

Step I: The triangles are getting blank and shaded alternatively.

Step II: The dark circles are getting shifted by + 1 places to each next image.

So, 'Option 4' will replace the question mark in the given series.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

'STORM’ is written as ‘12694',

‘TREND’ is written as ‘29554’,

Similarly, for 'WATER'

So, 'WATER' will be written as '51259'.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

The logic followed here is:

Logic: (1^st number + 2^nd number) × 3 - 1 = 3^rd number.

Now,

For, (4, 8, 35)

⇒ (4 + 8) × 3 - 1

= 12 × 3 - 1

= 36 - 1 = 35.

For, (3, 5, 23)

⇒ (3 + 5) × 3 - 1

= 8 × 3 - 1

= 24 - 1 = 23.

Similarly, for (6, 14, 59):

 

⇒ (6 + 14) × 3 - 1

= 20 × 3 - 1

= 60 - 1 = 59.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Given

Statement:

F = C < B = E and D < C = A < E

Now,

Conclusions:

Option 1: A > E → False (A < E)

Option 2: A < B → True (B = E > A gives A < B)

Option 3: E > D → True (D < C = A < E gives E > D)

Option 4: A = F → True (F = C = A gives A = F)

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is: First number = Second number × 31.

Given: 124 ∶ 4 ∶∶ 217 ∶ 7 ∶∶ ? ∶ 9  

For, 124 : 4

4 × 31 = 124

124 = First Number.

For, 217 : 7

7 × 31 = 217

217 = First Number.

Similarly, ? : 9

9 × 31 = 279

279 = ?

So, 279 is related to the sixth term.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

Given:

Statements:

1. Some trousers are pants.

2. All pants are jeans.

3. All jeans are coats.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given

Statements:

Conclusions:

I. All pants are coats. → True (It is given that all pants are jeans and all jeans are coat, it simply means that all pants are coats.)

II. At least some trousers are jeans → True (It is given that some trousers are pants and all pants are jeans so the part of jeans which is pants is also trousers.)

So, both conclusion follows.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.

The logic followed here is:

So, 193 will come in place of question mark.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

Given: 

Point A is 35 m to the north of Point B.

Point C is 28 m to the west of Point B.

Point D is 25 m to the south of Point C.

Point E is 14 m to the west of Point D.

Point F is 40 m to the north of Point E.

So, Point B is 'South-East' of Point F

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

For find the opposite surface of '2', we need to compare the common surface in the given dices,

Now, surface '2' is common in all the Dice, but from Dice 1 and Dice 3, only the surface '2' is common,

so the surface which is not showing in those dice will opposite of surface '2'.

So, From Dice 1 and Dice 3,

→ ''2 is the common surface and other faces are 6, 1, 3, 5.

So, the remaining '4' will be the opposite surface of '2'.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 1".

Given Equation: 34 B 4 D 16 C 30 A 2 = ?

BODMAS Rule:

Decoding the given information:

 

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

⇒ 34 × 4 - 16 + 30 ÷ 2 = ?

⇒ 136 - 16 + 30 ÷ 2 = ?

⇒ 136 - 16 + 15 = ?

⇒ 151 - 16 = 135.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 1".

The logic followed here is:

So, 159 will replace the question mark.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

Given Equation: 60 D 4 B 330 A 3 C 100 = ?

BODMAS Rule:

Decoding the given information:

 

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

⇒ 330 ÷ 3 × 4 + 60 - 100 = ?

⇒ 110 × 4 + 60 - 100 = ?

⇒ 440 + 60 - 100 = ?

⇒ 500 - 100 = 400.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 4".

Given: 8 friends – Jake, Ken, Lily, Dev, Mini, Nancy, Om and Polly are sitting around a square table facing the centre. 

Four of them are sitting at the corners of the table and the other four are sitting in the middle of each of the four sides.

1. Om is sitting second to the right of Jake.

2) Jake is not sitting in the middle of any of the sides.

3) Lily is sitting fourth to the left of Om.

4) Neither Jake nor Om is an immediate neighbour of Mini.

5) Mini is sitting in the middle of one of the sides.

6) Nancy is not sitting in the middle of any of the sides.

7. Polly is not an immediate neighbour of Om.

8) Only one person is sitting between Ken and Mini.

And, Dev will sit on the remaining place.

So, 'Nancy' is sitting fourth to the right of Jake.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".

The given figure is embedded in the figure:

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 2'.

These are the triangles in the given figure:

So, there are total 10 triangles in the given figure.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.

Family Chart:

Given: Pointing to a boy, Megha said, “He is the only son of my grandfather’s only child.”

So, the boy is the 'Brother' of Megha.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) TVGE

Option 2) HJSQ

Option 3) RTIG

Option 4) PRKJ

Here, 'PRKJ' is odd among the given options.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 4".

Family Chart:

Decoding the Symbols:

 

Given: B – C + Z × G + Q

It means: B is the Sister of C, C is the Father of Z, Z is the Brother of G, and G is the Father of Q.

So, C is the 'Father’s Father' of Q.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2".

Given:

Shalini drives 5 km North, then she turns East and drives 12 km.

After this, she turns North and drives 4 km.

Again she turns East and drives 5 km.

So, the total distance covered by Shalini is 5km + 12km+ 4km + 5km = 26km.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 1'.

The logic followed here is:

Option 1) F H S K B H H K

S F H K B / S F H K B / S F B K H / S F H K B → Does not follow pattern.

Option 2) F H S H K B H K

S F H K B /S F H H B / S F K K B / S F H K B → Does not follow pattern.

Option 3) F H S K H B H K

S F H K B / S F H K B / S F H K B / S F H K B → Follows pattern of SFHKB .

Option 4) F H S K H K H K

S F H K B / S F H K B / S F H K K / S F H K B → Does not follow pattern.

Hence, the correct answer is 'Option 3'.
