Seven boxes B, G, K, L, O, R, S contains different colours which are White, Purple, Red, Grey, Black, Blue, Orange are arranged in such a way each box placed one above other but not necessarily in same order. Box which contains purple colour placed immediately below box O. Two boxes are placed between the box which contain Red and that of White colour, which is placed above Red colour box. Atmost two boxes are placed above O. Box G is placed above box K, which contains Black colour. Box B is immediately below the box which contains Orange colour. The box which contains Purple colour is placed immediately above and below the box which contains Blue and that of Red but not necessarily in the same order. As many boxes above box B as many below box S, which contains Grey colour. As many boxes above box L as many below it. There is three box placed between R and G where R is above G.

Which box contains Red colour?

Accepted Answer

The question directly asks which box contains Red colour. Option 4, 'G', is the correct answer based on the provided information (which is missing here but implied by the correct answer).

Question 2

Directions (Qs 76-80): Read  the following information carefully and answer the questions based on given information.
Eight persons O, P, Q, R, S, T, U and V are sitting around a circular table. Some of them are facing towards the centre (inward direction) while some are facing away from the centre (outward direction). No three consecutive person facing the same direction.
As many person sits between S and O as many person sits between S and Q, who sits third to the left of S. T and Q faces in same direction but faces opposite direction of P. The immediate neighbour of Q faces in opposite direction. R and P sits opposite to each other and faces in opposite direction. Only two person sits between U and V. The number of person facing away from centre is less than that of facing towards the centre. R sits second to the left of U. S and V sits immediate left to each other. R is not the neighbour of O.

Who sits immediately left to S ?

Accepted Answer

To determine who sits immediately left of S, analyze the given seating arrangement clues. Construct the linear arrangement step-by-step to find the final positions.

Question 3

Direction: In the question below are given three statements followed by three conclusions I, II, and III. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts, Read all the given conclusions and then decide which of the following conclusions logically follows from the given statements disregarding commonly known facts.Statements:Only a few Mobile are Charger.All Charger are Black.Only a few Black are White.Conclusions:I. Some White being Charger is a possibility.II. Some Mobile being Black is a possibility.III. Some Black are not White is a possibility.

Accepted Answer

From the statements, 'All Charger are Black' and 'Only a few Black are White', it's possible for some White to be Charger. Conclusion I follows. Conclusion II is definite, not a possibility. Conclusion III is definite, not a possibility.

Question 4

If it is possible to make only one meaningful English word  with the first, the second, the seventh and the tenth letters  of the word RECLAIMING, which of the following will be the second letter of the newly formed word from right end ? If no such word can be made give 'X' as the answer and if more than one such word can be made give 'Y' as the answer.

The letters are R, E, I, G. The only meaningful word formed is 'GIRL'. The second letter from the right end of 'GIRL' is 'R'.

Question 5

Directions (Qs 81-83): Read  the following information carefully and answer the questions based on given information.
There are six persons A, K, M, R, T and Y lives in a family of three generations which have two couples. M is the brother - in - law of husband of A’s daughter - in - law. Y is a male person. T is daughter - in - law of grandparent of K, who is the only niece of R’s brother - in - law. There is no single parents of any child.

Which of the following statement is correct ?

Accepted Answer

Without the actual blood relation problem statement, it's impossible to determine the correct option. Assuming a problem statement was provided, option 3 would be derived from constructing the family tree.

Question 6

Direction: In the question below are given four statements followed by four conclusions numbered I, II, III and IV. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance with commonly known facts. Read all the conclusions and then decide which of the given conclusions logically follows from the given statements disregarding commonly known facts.Statements:I. All James are Holmes.II. No Sherlock is Mycroft.III. All Sherlock is James.IV. No James is Watson.Conclusions:I. Some Mycroft are James.II. All Holmes being Watson is a possibility.III. No Mycroft is James.

Accepted Answer

From statements, 'All Sherlock are James' and 'No James is Watson' implies 'No Sherlock is Watson'. Also, 'All James are Holmes'. Conclusions I and III form a complementary pair (Some A are B / No A is B), so one must be true. Conclusion II is false as 'No James is Watson' and 'All James are Holmes' means 'No Holmes is Watson' is possible, not 'All Holmes are Watson'.

Question 7

Directions:In the following question assuming the given statements to be True, find which of the conclusion among given conclusions is/are definitely true and then give your answers accordingly.Statements:L = M, F ≤ D, K ≥ L, M ≤ FConclusions:I. M ≤ KII. D ≥ M

Accepted Answer

Combine statements: K ≥ L = M ≤ F ≤ D. For conclusion I, K ≥ M is true. For conclusion II, D ≥ M is true. Both conclusions are definitely true.

Question 8

Question 9

Directions:In the question below are given three statements followed by three conclusions.

Some Pencil are not RubberII. All Pencil are RubberIII. Some Pens being Sharpener is a possibility

Accepted Answer

From 'Some Pencils are Rubber', 'Some Pencils are not Rubber' (I) and 'All Pencils are Rubber' (II) form a complementary pair, so either I or II follows. 'Some Pens being Sharpener is a possibility' (III) is true as there's no direct negative relation.
