SOLUTION
1. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. GMESKD. Hence, the code for D is 9.
Logic: CHARGE  GHTBJD Hence, the correct answer is 9.

4. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. 182.

Given series: 132, 156, ?, 210, 240, 272
Logic: Each term is the product of two conse-
cutive numbers, starting from 11 × 12
Similarly, CIRCLE  GMESKD 11 × 12 = 132, 12 × 13 = 156, 13 × 14= 182,
14 × 15 = 210, 15 × 16 = 240, 16 × 17 = 272
So, the missing number is 13 × 14 = 182

5. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. 225.

Given series: 20, 10, 10, 15, 30, 75, X?
2. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. Italy. 20 × 0.5 = 10
Eiffel Tower is located in France, But here France 10 × 1 = 10
is called Italy. So, Eiffel Tower is located in Italy. 10 × 1.5 = 15
Hence, the correct answer is Italy. 15 × 2 = 30
30 × 2.5 = 75
3. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. 9. 75 × 3 = 225

6. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. ORR.

Given series: AND, COF, FPI, JQM ____
A + 2 = C; C + 3 = F; F + 4 = J; J + 5 = O
Here ALY are common in two words. So the code N + 1 = O; O + 1 = P; P + 1 = Q; Q + 1 = R
for ALY is 5, 7 & 3. D + 2 = F; F + 3 = I; I + 4 = M; M + 5 = R
Hence the code for D either 0 or 9 but in options
only 9 is given so this is the correct answer. 7. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. Ten.
 The odd numbers in the sequence which are imme- Similarly, (18, 648, 9)
diately followed by an even number = Ten 18 × 9 × 4 = 648
54, 18, 96, 32, 78, 12, 36, 12, 58 and 96
254189632478512369125896 13. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e.JMP.
Logic: FIK
8. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. 3.
Given series: 8 3 2 1 6 2 4 3 7 1 7 2 Except for JMP, all other pairs of letters follow
a similar pattern.

14. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. JMN.

Logic:- 1st letter + 3 = 2nd letter, 2nd letter + 2 =
3rd letter
Option (a): JMN
J+3=M
So, the fifth number from the left = 3
M+2=O N
9. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. 3, 5, 1, 4, 2. This does not follow the logic.
3. Arrival - First, a person arrives at a place.
5. Introduction – Then, they are introduced to the 15. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. 56.

1. Presentation - Next, they present their topic or (2 + 8) × (1 + 4) = 10 × 5 = 50
idea. 36 + 43 = 63
4. Discussion - After the presentation, there is a (3 + 6) × (4 + 3) = 9 × 7 = 63
discussion. Similarly, 44 + 52 = 56
2. Recommendation - Finally, recommendations (4 + 4) × (5 + 2) = 8 × 7 = 56.
are made based on the discussion.
16. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. B.
10. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. 5, 3, 1, 4, 2.
The correct sequence follows the food chain:
Grass  Grasshopper  Frog  Snake  Eagle
So, the correct order is: 5, 3, 1, 4, 2 The face opposite the white colour is the blue colour.
11. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. (180, 45, 15). 17. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. 21.
(108, 27, 9)
9 × 3 = 27; 27 × 4 = 108
(132, 33, 11)
11 × 3 = 33; 33 × 4 = 133
Similarly, (180, 45, 15)
15 × 3 = 45; 45 × 4 = 180

12. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. (18, 648, 9). Sqaures = PQVI, QRIJ, VIST, IJTU, PRSU, EFHI,
Logic: (1st no. × 3rd no. × 4) = 2nd no. FGIK, IKNO, HIMN, EGMO, ABIL, ILCD = 12
(19, 456, 6) Rectangles = PRVJ, VJSU, EGHK, HKMO,
19 × 6 × 4 = 456 ABCD, PQST, QRTU, EFMN, FGNO = 9
(16, 320, 5) Thus, total number of squares and rectangles
16 × 5 × 4 = 320 (both) in the figure = 12 + 9 = 21
18. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. R is sister 22. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. Only II and
of T. IV follow.

Conclusions:
I. Some ropes are desks - Does not follow.
Only option (a) is correct i.e. R is sister of T. II. Some sticks are boards - Follows.
III. Some desks are nails - Does not follow.
19. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. 3. IV. Some boards are nails - Follows.
The family tree: Thus, only II and IV follow.

23. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. Only I, and
III follows.

The total number of males is 3.

Hence, the correct answer is 3. Conclusions:
I. Some houses are tunnels - Follows (As some

Hence, only I and III follow.
21. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. 35 years.
Let the present age of Charvi = 4x and the present 24. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. 17.
age of Vaishnavi = 5x
Yuvika is 2 years older than Charvi but 5 years
younger than Vaishnavi.
Yuvika = 2 + 4x
From the above arrangement, the total number
Yuvika = 5x – 5
of people in a row = 17.
4x + 2 = 5x – 5
4x + 2 = 5x – 5  x = 7 25. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. J.
So, the present age of Vaishnavi = 5x = 35 years
