Logical Reasoning Test: Ultimate Quiz

Explanation
The given statements state that some dogs are bags, no bag is a lion, and all rooms are lions. From these statements, we cannot conclude that some rooms are bags (conclusion i) because there is no direct connection between rooms and bags. Similarly, we cannot conclude that some dogs are lions (conclusion ii) because there is no overlap between dogs and lions in the given statements. Lastly, we cannot conclude that some rooms are dogs (conclusion iii) because there is no mention of a relationship between rooms and dogs. Therefore, none of the conclusions follow from the given statements.

Explanation
In the given analogy, each letter in the first pair is shifted three positions forward in the alphabet to get the corresponding letter in the second pair. Applying the same logic, each letter in the third pair should be shifted three positions forward to get the missing letter in the fourth pair. Therefore, the missing letter is 'D' and the correct answer is DQSF.

Explanation
The given sequence is a pattern of decreasing numbers. Starting from 30, each subsequent number is obtained by subtracting a certain value. The pattern is as follows: subtract 35 to get -5, subtract 40 to get -45, subtract 45 to get -90, subtract 50 to get -145, subtract 55 to get -195, and subtract 60 to get -225. Therefore, the number -145 does not follow this pattern and is the odd one out.

Explanation
To find the missing term, we need to identify the relationship between 5 and 24. It appears that 24 is obtained by multiplying 5 by 4 and then adding 4.
So, to find the missing term corresponding to 8, we would also multiply it by 4:
8 * 4 = 32 and then by adding 4 the missing term would be - 8:36
Therefore, the analogy can be completed as:
5:24 :: 8:36

Explanation
The letters in the word "BLACK" are shifted forward by one position in the alphabet to get the coded word "DNCEM". Applying the same pattern, the letters in the word "ORANGE" should be shifted forward by one position in the alphabet. This results in the coded word "QTCPIG".

Explanation
Mayank initially travels 80m towards North. Then, he turns right and travels 65m, which means he is now moving towards the East. After that, he turns northwards and travels 45m, so he is now moving towards the North-East direction. Finally, he further travels by turning 45 degrees clockwise, which means he is still moving towards the North-East direction. Therefore, the correct answer is North-east.

Explanation
The series follows a pattern of increasing the previous number by a certain amount. In this case, the pattern is to add 2, then add 4, then add 6, and so on. Starting with 20, adding 2 gives 22, then adding 4 gives 26, and adding 6 gives 32. Therefore, the next number in the series would be 32 + 8, which equals 40.

Explanation
This sequence is a simple example of a geometric progression where each term after the first is obtained by multiplying the previous one by 2.
The first term is 2.
The second term is 2 multiplied by 2, which equals 4.
The third term is 4 multiplied by 2, which equals 8.
The fourth term is 8 multiplied by 2, which equals 16.
The fifth term is 16 multiplied by 2, which equals 32.
Following this pattern, the next term should be 32 multiplied by 2, which equals 64.

Explanation
Shailu starts walking towards North and then makes a series of right and left turns. After walking 20 meters towards North, she turns right and walks 10 meters towards East. Then she turns right again and walks 20 meters towards South. Finally, she turns left and walks 10 meters towards East. Therefore, she is now in the North-East direction with reference to the starting point.

Explanation
Q passed the newspaper to R. This can be inferred from statement 2, which states that the person who reads first gives it to R. Since Q is not the first or last to read (as stated in statement 4), it can be concluded that Q passed the newspaper to R.

Explanation
Based on the given information, we can determine that T was not the first or last to read the newspaper. Also, the person who reads last has taken it from P. Since there were two readers between Q and P, and T is not the last reader, it can be concluded that S must be the last reader. Therefore, the correct answer is S.

Explanation
Based on the given information, we know that the person who reads last takes the newspaper from P. Since S is not the last person to read, it means that S takes the newspaper from someone else. Additionally, there are two readers between Q and P. Therefore, the order of reading must be Q, R, S, T, P. Hence, P reads the newspaper before S.

Explanation
Based on the given information, we know that the person who reads first gives the newspaper to R, and the person who reads last takes it from P. We also know that T was neither the first nor the last to read. Since there are two readers between Q and P, and Q cannot be the first or last reader, the only possibility is that Q reads the newspaper first. Therefore, the correct answer is Q.

Explanation
Since Sonam's shadow fell exactly to the right of Megha, it means that the sun was in the west. In the morning, the sun rises in the east, so if Sonam's shadow is to the right of Megha, Megha must be facing south.

Explanation
The correct sequence is 5, 6, 2, 3, 4, 1. The logical order of events in a typical job application process is as follows: 5) Advertisement - the job opening is announced, 6) Application - interested candidates submit their applications, 2) Interview - selected candidates are called for an interview, 3) Selection - the most suitable candidate is chosen, 4) Appointment - the selected candidate is offered the job, and 1) Probation - the newly appointed employee undergoes a probationary period to assess their performance.

Explanation
The conclusion "Either i or ii follow" means that either conclusion i or conclusion ii can be inferred from the given statements. In this case, both conclusions can be inferred. Conclusion i can be inferred from the first statement "All papers are white" as it implies that no dull is a white. Conclusion ii can be inferred from the second statement "Some whites are dull" as it directly states that some whites are dull. Therefore, either i or ii follow.

Explanation
Mannat initially drives 20 km North from point 1. Then, he takes a right turn and drives 30 km, which means he is now driving East. After that, he takes another right turn and drives for 20 km, which means he is now driving South. Therefore, the direction in which he drives once he took the second turn is South.

Explanation
S and Q are in the same row. This can be determined from the given information that S is second to the left of U and Q is the neighbor of U. Since T is not at the end of any row, it can be inferred that T is in the opposite row from S and Q. Therefore, the pair SQ must be in the same row.

Explanation
P is facing S. This can be determined by considering the given information. T is not at the end of any row, so T must be sitting in the middle of a row. S is second to the left of U, so S must be sitting to the left of U. R, the neighbor of T, is sitting diagonally opposite to S. Therefore, R must be sitting in the same row as S but on the opposite end. The only remaining position in that row is the one facing S, which is occupied by P. Therefore, P is facing S.

Explanation
Based on the given information, T is not at the end of any row, so T must be in the middle of a row. S is second to the left of U, which means S must be on the left side of U. R, the neighbor of T, is sitting diagonally opposite to S, so R must be on the right side of T. Q is the neighbor of U, so Q must be on the right side of U. From this information, we can conclude that P and U are sitting diagonally opposite to each other. Therefore, the pair sitting diagonally opposite to each other is PU.
