Reasoning PYQs

Given that the average of six friends is 6500 Rs.

So, the total income = 6500 \(\times\) 6 = 39000 Rs.

Also, the total income of B, D, E and F = Rs. 25000

Thus, the total income of A and C = Rs. 39000 - 25000 = Rs. 14000

Again, given that, A's income is Rs. 4000 less than C's income.

So, A + C  = 14000

⇒ A + A + 4000 = 14000

⇒ 2A = 10000

⇒ A =  5000

Thus, the income of C will be = 14000 - 5000 = Rs. 9000

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 3'.

The alphabets and their positions are:

The logic used here is:

Thus, the next letter clusters is 'XCR'.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 2'.

The least possible Venn diagram is given below:

Conclusion:

I. No doctor is a carpenter → Does not follow → As some carpenter are singer and all singer are doctor. So, some carpenter are doctors. This is not true.

II. Some doctors are singers → Follow → As all signers are doctors and so some doctors are singers. This is true.

III. Some carpenters are doctors → Follow → As some carpenter are singer and all singer are doctor. So, some carpenter are doctors is true.

Thus, Only conclusions II and III follow.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 4'.

The alphabets and their positions are:

The logic here is:

Thus, the next one will be 'ZIGU'.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 4'

The arrangement of the given word in logical and meaningful order is:

2. First, we need to Unlock vehicle.

3. Then Start vehicle.

4. After that, to go to some place we need to Drive vehicle.

5. Then Reach destination.

6. Once we have reached, we need to Parking of vehicle.

Thus, the order of the given words is '2, 3, 1, 4, 5'.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 1'.

The Venn diagram of the given statements are:

Conclusion

I. No vehicle is a tractor → Follow → As this is the given statement and it is true.

II. No tractor is a park → Follow →  As all tractors are roads and no road is park. So, no tractor is park is true.

III. Some roads are tractors → Follow →  As all tractors are roads and so some roads are tractors is true.

Thus, 'All of the conclusions' follows.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 3'.

The arrangement of words in English dictionary is:

5. Loafer
6. Locust
7. Logical
8. Logistics
9. Longevity 

Thus, the arrangement is '5, 4, 1, 2, 3'.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 3'.

The symbols and their meaning used are:

 

According to the given information, the family tree is:

Thus, Arti is sister of Sukanya.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 4'.

The correct mirror image of the given figure is:

 

Detailed Explanation :- 

• The line MN is the mirror.
• The last number

. So the first number in the mirror image will be '

'. → Option 2 is eliminated.

• The number 

. So the number in the mirror image will be

. → Option 4 is eliminated.

• The number .

So the number in the mirror image will be '

'. → Option 3 is eliminated.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 1'

 Additional Information

• In a mirror image Left changes to right and the right changes to left where top and bottom remains the same.
• When placement of mirror not given, by default we will assume it in vertical direction.
• The starting letter word will be at last after the mirror image drawn with left changes to right and right changes to left.

The logic here is:

Thus, the missing number is '264'.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 2'.

The arrangement of the given words in a logical and meaningful order will be:

2. First we need to buy the Metal.

4) Melt it so that we can give some shape to it.

1. We will create the Jewellery out of it.

2. Once done, we will Polish it to make the jewellery shine.

3. At last we can Sell it out after that.

Thus, the order of words will be '2, 4, 1, 5, 3'.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 1'.

We compare each option with the given figure:

Option 1) 

The figure cannot be completely embedded.

Option 2) 

The figure cannot be completely embedded.

Option 3) 

The figure cannot be completely embedded.

Option 4) 

The figure can be completely embedded.

Hence the correct answer is option 4)

BODMAS Rule is:

According to the given information, we have:

Given: 43 A 22 C 15 B 4 A 72 D (10 C 2)

Applying the given information, we will get,

= 43 + 22 - 15 × 4 + 72 ÷ (10 - 2)

Applying BODMAS rule, we will get,

= 43 + 22 - 15 ×  4 + 72 ÷ 8

= 43 + 22 - 15 \(×\) 4 + 9

= 43 + 22 - 60 + 9

= 14

Thus, the answer of the given equation is 14.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 1'.

According to the given information, we will have,

 

Thus, R is facing in East direction.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 1'.

The alphabets and their positions are:

The logic here is:

For MOCK : NLXP is:

Similarly for DART : ? is:

Thus, the missing letter cluster is 'WZIG'.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 3'.

The logic here is:

Thus, the missing number is '86'.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 3'.

The alphabets and their positions are:

The logic here is: (Sum of the place values of the alphabets) × Number of letters in the word 

For  ‘CURSOR’ is written as ‘564’    

⇒ 94 × 6 = 564

AND,

‘BOY’ is written as ‘126’, we have:

⇒ 42 × 3 = 126

Similarly,

for the word FREE, we have:

⇒ 34 × 4 = 136

Thus, the code language for the word FREE is 136.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 3'.

The symbols and meaning is of the family tree is:

According to the statements the family tree is:

 

 

Thus, the married couples are P and S.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 1'.

Given: Eight persons A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are sitting in a straight line facing the north.

According to the given statements, we have,

1) C is between B and A.

2) B is second to the right of A. Thus, case 1 is eliminated.

 

3) D is between B and H.

 

4) G is between A and F.

 

5) E is third to the left of A. H is at one of the corners. Thus, the final arrangement will be:

 

Hence, person E is sitting at the other corner.

Here the logic is:

1^st column:

 

→ 55 - 48 = 7 ⇒ 7² = 49.

2^nd Column:

 

→ 63 - 58 = 5 ⇒ 52 = 25.

3^rd Column:

 

→ 47(? = 47) - 40 = 7 ⇒ 72 = 49.

Thus, the missing number is 47.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 3'

Alternate Method

For the given:

2^nd row: 

 : 48 + 58 + 40 = 146

3^rd row : 

 : 49 + 25 + 49 = 123

Difference : 3^rd row - 2^nd row = 146 - 123 = 23

 

Similarly for 

1^st row : 

 : 55 + 63 + 47 = 165

Difference : 165 - 146 = 19

 

Thus, the missing number is 47.

Hence, the correct answer is 'option 3'
