 SOLUTION
1. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. 495. So, the fifth to the left of the letter third from the
'TDG' = '1680' right is O.
T (20), D (4), G (7) = (20 × 4 × 7) × 3  560 × 3
= 1680 8. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. M.
'BHI' = '432' -12th letter from the right end = M
B (2), H (8), I (9) = (2 × 8 × 9) × 3  144 × 3 = 432
9. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. (iv), (i), (v),
Similarly, 'KCE' = ?
(ii), (iii).
K (11), C (3), E (5) = (11 × 3 × 5) × 3  165 × 3 Correct Order: (iv), (i), (v), (ii), (iii).

(ii) Revise (iii) Publish
2. (c) The correct answer is Option (c) i.e. 2144139.
First, we Think about the content then we Plan

it, and then Write it. Then, we Revise it and at
last we Publish it.
'WANTED' – '213957' 10. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. 5, 3, 4, 2, 1.
A tree grows in a Forest, which provides Wood,
which is used to make Furniture. All of these
Similarly; WARRANT : ? exist within a Country.
Final Logical Order:
5. Tree 3. Forest 4. Wood
3. (a) { 48 ÷ 4 + [ 25 mod 6 + 6 ] } – 7 2. Furniture 1. Country
= { 12 + [ 1 + 6 ] } – 7
= { 12 + 7 } – 7 11. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. Canada
= 19 – 7 = 12 The relationship between the first pair of words
(Sydney: Australia) is that Sydney is a city in
4. (a) 100  5  3 – 6  2 Australia.
Similarly, Toronto is a city in a Canada.
54  2 = 27 Hence, the correct answer is Canada.

5. (a) 50 |12 – 15| 3  4  2 12. (c) The correct answer is Option (c) i.e. NPHJQS.
50 – (5 × 2) TEA : ZBDFSU
= 50 – 10 = 40 First, reverse the code.
TEA = USFDBZ
6. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. D2E2F2. T + 1 = U, T – 1 = S; E + 1 = F, E – 1 = D; A + 1
In this series, the letters remain the same: DEF. = B, A – 1 = Z
The subscript numbers follow this series: SIN : MOHIRT
111, 112, 122, 222, 223, 233, 333, ... First, reverse the code.
Therefore, DE2F2 should be followed by D2E2F2. SIN = TRIHOM
S + 1 = T, S – 1 = R; I + 1 = J, I – 1 = H; N + 1
7. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. O. = O, N – 1 = M
Similarly, RIO : ?
R + 1 = S, R – 1 = Q; I + 1 = J, I – 1 = H; O + 1
= P, O – 1 = N
 RIN = NPHJQS

13. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. Uterus –

Urologist.
Uterus – Urologist: Urologists primarily focus
on the urinary tract, not specifically the uterus N is the Mother of L.
(which is handled by gynecologists).
Uterus – urologist word pair is the one that 20. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. North.
DOES NOT belong to that group.

14. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. Close – open.
Except Close - open, the other pairs are syno-
nyms to each other. But Close - open are anto-
nyms to each other.

15. (d) Red balls = 6

Total balls = 15
Probability of being red = 6/15 = 2/5

16. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. H

The adjacent pairs should not be opposite to Thus, A is in North direction with respect to E.
each other.
So, the Opposite of K is H. 21. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. 69.
Let the number be x.
17. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. 15. 90% of x = 621
x = 690
50% of 20% of x = (1/2)(1/5)(690) = 69

22. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. Only II and
III follows.
ABF, ADF, BCI, ABD, CGI, HIG, BGF, BCG, CHG, The least possible Venn diagram:
CDE, BDI, BCD, CDE, ABG, ADH
Thus, the total number of triangles = 15

18. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. Cannot be

determined.
Conclusions:
I. Some raincoats are caps. - Does not follow

raincoats and caps so it can be possible)
II. Some trousers are umbrellas - Follows (Because

19. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. Mother. III. All raincoats are jackets. - Follows (Because All
raincoats are trousers and All trousers are
jackets. So, All raincoats are also jackets)
 Hence, Only II and III follow.

23. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. Only I and
either II or III follow.
The least possible Venn diagram is as follows:
Hence, the correct answer is .

27. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. No rational.

III. No machine is fan. - Does not follow (There is signs between C and H)
no relation given between machines and fans.
So, it can be possible) 28. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. 75°.
Some and No make complementary pairs. So, We know that the hour hand of a clock completes

According to the given information: Angle traced by the minute hand in 60
Order of persons in the row = (14 persons + minutes = 360°
Heera + X persons + Shobit + X persons + Manoj Angle traced by the minute hand in 30
