Logical Reasoning I (ସାଧାରଣ ଅଧ୍ୟୟନ I)- Mini Mock-01

The figure that will replace the question mark (?) in the following figure series is shown below:

1. Figure 1 to 2 - flag rotates 45 degrees in the anti-clockwise direction.
2. Figure 2 to 3 - flag rotates 90 degrees in the anti-clockwise direction.
3. Figure 3 to 4 - flag rotates 135 degrees in the anti-clockwise direction.
4. Figure 4 to 5 -  flag rotates 180 degrees in the anti-clockwise direction.

Hence, ‘option 1’ is the correct answer.

The logical and meaningful order of the following words is shown below:

1. Letter

4. Post Box

5. Post Office

2. Postman

3. Delivery

The letter is dropped in a post box. Then the letter is picked up from the post box and sent to the post office. After arriving at the post office, the letter is taken by the postman and delivered to its destination.

Hence, ‘1, 4, 5, 2, 3’ is the correct answer.

1. Pinky is taller than Priya but shorter than Reena.

Reena > Pinky > Priya

2. Riya is taller than Sheela, who is shorter than Priya.

Riya > Sheela and Priya > Sheela

3. Reena is taller than Riya, who is taller than Pinky.

Reena > Riya > Pinky

From all the three statements, we get:

Reena > Riya > Pinky > Priya > Sheela

So, Sheela is the shortest.

Hence, ‘Sheela’ is the correct answer.

The number of triangles in the given figure are as follows:

Hence, there are 13 triangles in the given figure.

Logic followed here is:

There is a total of seven boxes of different colors.

Middle means:

i) Violet Box is kept in the middle i.e in the 4th place

ii) The Pink box is kept at the top i.e in the first place.

iii) The Yellow box is kept exactly above the Violet box.

iv) The Red box is placed exactly between the Green and Blue box.

Green box = 5th

Red box = 6th

Blue box = 7th

Therefore the remaining place is the 2nd place that is occupied by the Brown box which is 6th from the bottom.

Hence, the correct answer is "Brown".

Confusion Points

• Here Brown is 2nd from the top.
• And from the bottom Brown is 6th.

The logic follows here is :

1. All dogs are males.

2. All rabbits are males.

The least possible Venn diagram for the given set of words is:

Hence, the correct answer is "Option (3)".

Confusion Points

Dog and rabbit are males.

Female counterparts are called Bitch and Doe respectively.

The logic followed here is:

abb/abb/abb/abb - The word 'abb' is repeated in the series.

Hence, ‘bbabb’ is the correct answer.

"Who" is used for the second person in a sentence.

For example,

F is to the immediate left of G, who is opposite A. → It means F is to the immediate left of G and G is the opposite A.

Persons: J, A, G, E, V and F.

From the given information,

1) F is to the immediate left of G, who is opposite A.

2) V is between A and J.

And E will sit at the remaining vacant position. Thus, final arrangement is-

Hence, A is sitting to the left of E.

The correct answer is Option 3.

The statement clearly states that Turtles are difficult to pet or maintain because they are very messy.

Also 'difficult to maintain' implies that they are high maintenance.

So both conclusion I and II follow.

Given :

Statement given : A % B & C # D @ E

Explanation :

• A % B → A is the father of B.

​

• B & C → B is the husband of C.

​

• C # D → C is the sister of D.

​

• D @ E → D is the daughter of E.

​

Thus, from the final family tree B is the son-in-law of E.

Hence, "Son-in-law" is the correct answer.

Concept:

1) We have to check the conclusions are 100% match with the statement. If the conclusion is 100% match with the given statement then the conclusion is true. If there is a 1% chance of not following the statement then the conclusion is considered to be false.

2) The possibility case can be considered to be "false" in "definite case".

3) In Possibility case, either "can" or "possible" word must be present.

The least possible Venn diagram is,

Conclusion I: Some beans are breads → False (This is possible but not definite)

Conclusion II: Some breads are beans → False (This is possible but not definite)

Hence, neither conclusion I nor II follows

Note:

Conditions of Either-or case:

1. The elements should be the same in both the statements.

2. Individually both the conclusions should be false.

3. One conclusion should be positive and one conclusion should be negative (Complementary pair)

The two complementary pairs are:

1) All + Some not

2) No + Some

Additional Information

The pattern followed is,

For first figure:

(5 × 7) – (3 × 2) = 35 – 6 = 29

For second figure:

(6 × 4) – (5 × 1) = 24 – 5 = 19

For third figure:

(8 × 7) – (3 × 4) = 56 - 12 = 44

Hence, “44” is the correct answer.

The logic followed here is:

'Glove' is related to 'Hand' → Gloves are worn on the hands.

Similarly,

'Cap' is related to ‘Head' → Cap is worn on the head.

Hence, ‘Head’ is the correct answer.

The positions of the letters according to the Englsiha alphabet series:

Given, R = 18

1 + 8 = 9

FISH = 6 + 9 + 19 + 8 = 42

4 + 2 = 6

Similarly,

DREAM = 4 + 18 + 5 + 1 + 13 = 41

4 + 1 = 5

Hence, “5” is the correct answer.

According to Question:

Position of Nitin from left end = 12

Position of Yuri from right end = 26

Persons between Nitin and Yuri = 5

clearly, the state of being overlapping

⇒ (Position of Nitin from left end + Position of Yuri from right end – Person in the middle – 2)

⇒ 12 + 26 - 5 - 2

⇒ 38 – 7 = 31

Hence, the correct answer is "31".

Short Trick.

Count total number of days (except given day of week which in this question is Tuesday).

10 + Yesterday + 11 + Tomorrow = 10 + 1 + 11 + 1 = 23 days

23 days = 2 odd days.

Thus, 2 days ahead of Tuesday will be Thursday

Hence answer is Thursday

Detailed Method:

From given information;

10 days before yesterday's → Tuesday.

So, the present day = 10 days + yesterday + Today. (12 days)

12 days = 5 odd days.

So, Present day is 5 days ahead of Tuesday, which is Sunday.

Thus 11^th day will come after 10 days

So total days = 10 + 1 (tomorrow) = 11 days.

11 days = 4 odd days.

So, 4 days ahead of Sunday is Thursday.

Hence answer is Thursday.
