QSDJF
Correct Answer
C. FDJSQExplanation
The code follows a pattern where each letter is replaced with the letter that is two positions ahead in the English alphabet. For example, in the word 'SHINE', 'S' is replaced with 'F' (two positions ahead), 'H' is replaced with 'J', 'I' is replaced with 'K', 'N' is replaced with 'P', and 'E' is replaced with 'G'. Applying the same pattern to the word 'PRICE', 'P' will be replaced with 'F', 'R' will be replaced with 'D', 'I' will be replaced with 'J', 'C' will be replaced with 'S', and 'E' will be replaced with 'Q', resulting in the code 'FDJSQ'.Rate this question:

If each vowel of the word CROWING is changed to the next letter in the English alphabetical series and each consonant is changed to the previous letter in the English alphabetical series and then the alphabets thus formed are arranged in alphabetical order from left to right, Which of the following will be third from the right?
- A.

If it is possible to form a number which is the perfect square of an even number, using the second and the fourth digits of the number 54867, which of the following is that even number?
- A.
8
- B.
6
- C.
12
- D.
There is no such number
- E.
None of these
Correct Answer
A. 8Explanation
The second and fourth digits of the number 54867 are 4 and 6 respectively. If we form a number using these digits, it would be 46. 46 is not a perfect square of any even number. Therefore, there is no such number that can be formed using the second and fourth digits of 54867, which is the perfect square of an even number. Hence, the correct answer is "There is no such number".Rate this question:

Suresh is five ranks below the top student Samir. This means that there are five students between Suresh and Samir in terms of their ranks. Since there are forty students in total, the rank of Samir from the bottom would be 40th. Since Suresh is five ranks below Samir, his rank from the bottom would be 40th - 5th = 35th.

How many numbers from 1-40 will be left out if all those numbers each of which is exactly divisble by 4 and/ or has 4 as one of the digits are dropped?
- A.

- B.
30
- C.
31
- D.
28
- E.
None of these
Correct Answer
D. 28Explanation
If we consider the numbers from 1 to 40, we can see that there are 10 numbers that are exactly divisible by 4 (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40) and 10 numbers that have 4 as one of the digits (4, 14, 24, 34, 40). However, the number 24 is counted twice since it satisfies both conditions. Therefore, we need to subtract one from the total count. So, the number of numbers left out is 10 + 10 - 1 = 19. Therefore, the correct answer is 28 (40 - 19).Rate this question:

In a certain code GIVE is written as'51@$' and FAIL is written as'%219'.How is LEAF written in that code?

5$2%
- B.
9$2%
- C.
9@2%
- D.
9$1%
- E.
None
Correct Answer
B. 9$2%Explanation
The code follows a pattern where each letter is replaced by a symbol and a number. The symbol and number represent the position of the letter in the English alphabet. For example, in the word GIVE, G is the 7th letter, so it is replaced by the symbol '@' and the number '7'. Similarly, E is the 5th letter, so it is replaced by the symbol '$' and the number '5'. Applying the same pattern to the word LEAF, L is the 12th letter, so it is replaced by the symbol '9' and the number '12'. E is the 5th letter, so it is replaced by the symbol '$' and the number '5'. A is the 1st letter, so it is replaced by the symbol '%' and the number '1'. And F is the 6th letter, so it is replaced by the symbol '2' and the number '6'. Therefore, LEAF is written as '9$2%' in that code.Rate this question:

In the word COMPUTERS, there are more than three pairs of letters that have the same number of letters between them as in the English alphabet. To determine this, we need to count the number of pairs that have a specific number of letters between them. However, no matter how we count, we will always find more than three pairs that satisfy this condition. Therefore, the answer is more than three.Rate this question:

STATEMENTS: All lines are circles. some circles are squares. conclusions: No square is a line. some squares are definitely not circles.
- A.
One follows
- B.
Two follows
- C.
Neither one or two follows
- D.
Either one or two follows
- E.
Both follows
Correct Answer
C. Neither one or two followsExplanation
The given statements state that all lines are circles and some circles are squares. From these statements, we cannot conclude that no square is a line (conclusion one) because there is a possibility that there are squares that are not circles. Similarly, we cannot conclude that some squares are definitely not circles (conclusion two) because there is a possibility that there are squares that are also circles. Therefore, neither conclusion one nor conclusion two follows from the given statements.Rate this question:

STATEMENTS: All kits are birds.no kint is a glider. CONCLUSION: some gliders are definitely not birds. Atleast some birds are kites.
- A.
One follows
- B.
Two follows
- C.
Neither one or two follows
- D.
Either one or two follows
- E.
Both follows
Correct Answer
E. Both followsExplanation
Both conclusions follow from the given statements. The first conclusion, "some gliders are definitely not birds," can be inferred from the second statement which states that "no kint is a glider." This means that there is no overlap between gliders and kints, implying that some gliders are definitely not birds. The second conclusion, "at least some birds are kites," can be inferred from the first statement which states that "all kits are birds." This means that there is a possibility of some birds being kites, although it is not explicitly stated.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
A. One followsExplanation
The conclusion "No plant is a root" follows from the given statements because if no fern is a plant and all roots are ferns, then it can be inferred that no plant can be a root.Rate this question:

- C.
Neither one or two follows
- D.
Either one or two follows
- E.
Both follows
Correct Answer
B. Two followsExplanation
The conclusion "At least some stars are planets" follows from the given statements because if some planets are stars and some orbits are stars, then it is possible for there to be stars that are also planets. However, the conclusion "No orbit is a planet" does not follow because the statements do not provide enough information to make that determination.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
E. Both followsExplanation
Both conclusions follow from the given statements. The first conclusion follows because if all solids are liquids and all liquids are gases, then it can be inferred that all solids are also gases. The second conclusion follows because if no gas is plasma and all liquids are gases, then it can be inferred that no liquid is plasma.Rate this question:

What should come next in the following letter series? A A B A B C A B C D A B C D E A B C D E F
- A.
G
- B.
C
- C.
B
- D.
A
- E.
NONE
Correct Answer
D. AExplanation
The letter series follows a pattern where each letter is repeated in alphabetical order. The first letter 'A' is repeated once, then the second letter 'B' is repeated twice, then the third letter 'C' is repeated three times, and so on. Therefore, the next letter in the series should be 'A' as it is the next letter in alphabetical order and should be repeated four times.Rate this question:
