Seven persons- M, N, O, P, Q, R and S are going to Holiday trip in different months i.e. January, March, April, May, June, July and August. Each of them like different colors- Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, White, Black and Grey but not necessarily in the same order.

The one who likes blue goes just before the one who likes green. The one who likes green goes in the month which has even number of days. P goes after N. R goes just after P. Q does not like grey. Four persons go between M and the one who likes yellow. The one who likes white goes after the one who likes yellow. N does not like white. Neither P nor O likes green and white.

Answer: (A) Two
Explanation
Based on the deduced schedule, O goes on the trip in January and the person who likes Blue (P) goes on the trip in May. The months falling between January and May in the given sequence are March and April. Hence, exactly two persons go on the holiday trip between O and the one who likes Blue.

Answer: (D) One
Explanation
The original order of persons by month is:
January: O
March: S
April: N
May: P
June: R
July: M
August: Q
Arranging the seven persons in alphabetical order (M, N, O, P, Q, R, S) from January to August gives:
January: M
March: N
April: O
May: P
June: Q
July: R
August: S
Comparing both sequences month by month shows that May is occupied by P in both arrangements, meaning only one person's position remains unchanged.

If the third, sixth, seventh, eighth and eleventh letters (from left) of the word "CONSEQUENCES" are combined to form a meaningful word, then what will be the third letter from the right end of the meaningful word formed? If more than one such word can be formed, mark the answer as X and if no such word can be formed, mark the answer as Y.
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (C) E
Explanation
In the word "CONSEQUENCES", counting positions from left to right gives:
3rd letter: N
6th letter: Q
7th letter: U
8th letter: E
11th letter: E
Combining these extracted letters yields {E, E, N, Q, U}. The only meaningful English word that can be formed using all five letters is QUEEN. Counting from the right end of "QUEEN" (N is 1st, E is 2nd, E is 3rd), the third letter from the right end is E.

Answer: (E) G
Explanation
A was born in 1974 (position 3), so the person two positions younger was born in 1987 (position 5). Since B, D, A, F, C, and E occupy the other positions, G was born in 1987 and likes hiking.
75Reasoning Ability
Read the given information carefully and answer the related questions:
Seven persons A,B,C,D,E,F and G were born on same date and same month of different year- 1947,1962,1974,1981, 1987,1998,2009. They also like different activities - swimming, climbing, reading, running, hiking, drawing, dancing. The given information is not used in the same order as given. Their age is calculated with respect to base year 2025.
Age of the one who likes dancing is a multiple of 3. Age difference between B and the one who likes dancing is an odd number, B is older here. Four persons were born between B and the one who likes swimming. F's age is not an odd number. Total age of F and A is a multiple of 5. The one who likes hiking is two persons younger to A. D likes drawing but he is not the youngest person. C was born in even number year and he is older to the one who likes climbing. Three persons were born between G and the one who likes reading.

Who among the following lives to the north west of K?
● Correct
● Not quite — the correct answer is highlighted
Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (E) None of these
Explanation
Based on the given clues, the floor and flat arrangement from top to bottom (Floor 4 to Floor 1) is:
Floor 4: Flat-P = O, Flat-Q = N
Floor 3: Flat-P = E, Flat-Q = K
Floor 2: Flat-P = D, Flat-Q = M
Floor 1: Flat-P = L, Flat-Q = F
L lives in Flat-P on Floor 1 because no one lives to his west. D lives immediately above L on Floor 2, Flat-P.
With two floors between N and F, N lives on Floor 4 and F lives on Floor 1 in Flat-Q.
Since O and F live in different named flats, O lives in Flat-P on Floor 4, leaving N in Flat-Q on Floor 4.
M lives to the east of the person immediately below E, placing E on Floor 3 in Flat-P, D below E on Floor 2 in Flat-P, and M on Floor 2 in Flat-Q.
The remaining space on Floor 3 in Flat-Q belongs to K.
North-west of K (Floor 3, Flat-Q) requires a higher floor to the west, which is Floor 4, Flat-P, occupied by O.

In these questions, the relationship between different elements is shown in the statements. The statements are followed by two conclusions. Study the conclusions based on the given statements and select the appropriate answer:

Answer: (B) If only conclusion II is true
Explanation
In the given expression G = H > K = I ≥ L > M = N ≥ O < P, connecting L to O gives L > M = N ≥ O, which combines to L > O, making Conclusion II true. On the other hand, the path from G to P contains opposing inequality symbols (> and <), so no definite relationship can be established between G and P, making Conclusion I false.

Answer: (E) If neither conclusion I nor II is true
Explanation
In the statement A = B > C ≥ D < E > O < L ≤ F > G, the path between A and F contains conflicting inequality signs (< and >), so no unique relation exists between A and F, making Conclusion I false. Similarly, the path between D and G contains opposing signs (D < E > O), which prevents any definite conclusion between D and G, making Conclusion II false.
83Reasoning Ability
In these questions, the relationship between different elements is shown in the statements. The statements are followed by two conclusions. Study the conclusions based on the given statements and select the appropriate answer:

Show answer & explanationHide answer⌄
Answer: (D) If only conclusion I is true
Explanation
Combining the inequalities from W to X gives W < U ≤ V = K ≤ X, which yields W < X, or equivalently X > W, so Conclusion I is true. For Conclusion II, the path from U to Z includes opposing inequality signs (X < Y > Z), so no definite relationship between U and Z can be derived, making Conclusion II false.

Evaluating the letter relationships in each four-letter string reveals a consistent pattern: the second letter is +2 positions after the first, the second and third letters are opposite pairs in the alphabet (their numerical positions sum to 27), and the fourth letter is 1 position before the first letter (-1). In XZAV, X(24) and V(22) have a difference of -2 instead of -1 (X - 1 = W), making it the odd one out.

They hold different positions - HRM (Human Resource Manager), CEO (Chief Executive Officer), GM (General Manager), LSP (Lead Specialist), PH (Project Head) and CTO (Chief Technology Officer). HRM is the junior most and the CTO is the senior most designations.
U lives in England and is just senior to S. R is senior to T who doesn't live in Philippines. No one designated between the persons who lives in England and Vietnam. P does not live in Singapore. R is just senior to the person who lives in Finland. Only three persons are designated junior to P. Person who lives in Canada is immediately senior to P.

Which of the following combination is true?

Answer: (D) Both [a] and [b]
Explanation
Ordering the six designations from senior to junior gives CTO (1), PH (2), LSP (3), GM (4), CEO (5), and HRM (6). Since three persons are junior to P, P is LSP (3). Canada is immediately senior to P, so PH (2) is Canada. A gap of more than 2 designations puts Vietnam at HRM (6), and adjacent England at CEO (5). U lives in England (CEO) and is just senior to S (HRM, Vietnam). R is PH (Canada) and just senior to P (LSP, Finland). T is GM (Singapore) and Q is CTO (Philippines). Consequently, U lives in England and T lives in Singapore are both correct.

Assigning D to (0, 0) gives E = (17, 0), M = (0, 47), A = (3, 47), and X = (17, 23). The displacement vector from X to A is A - X = (3 - 17, 47 - 23) = (-14, 24). The negative x-displacement indicates West and the positive y-displacement indicates North, so point A is in the North-west direction relative to point X.
