Instructions

For the following questions answer them individually

Question 4

Which of the following symbols should replace question mark in the given expression in order to make the expression ‘$$A>D$$’ and ‘$$F \geq C$$’ definitely true ?
$$A>B \geq C ? D \leq E = F$$

Video Solution

Solution

The expression, A>B$$\geq$$C=D $$\leq$$ E =F,

Means that A is greater than B which can be greater than or equal to C. Now, if C is equal to D, naturally A is greter than D.

Also, D is less than or equal to E. As E and F are equal, D is less than or equal to F. Hence, C is less than or equal to F.

Question 5

Which of the following expression is definitely true if the given expression ‘R<P' and 'S>
Q’ are definitely true?

Video Solution

Solution

P>Q=R$$\leq$$T<S
means P is greater than Q and hence, P is greater than R. R is less than or equal to T. T is less than S. Therefore, Q is less than T.

Hence, the correct option is A.

Question 6

Read the following information carefully and answer the question which follows:
‘$$A \times B $$’ means ‘$$A$$ is the father of $$B$$’.
‘$$A+B$$’ means ‘$$A$$ is the daughter of $$B$$’.
‘$$A \div B$$’ means ‘$$A$$ is the son of $$B$$’
‘$$A-B$$’ means ‘$$A$$ is the sister of $$B$$’
What will come in place of question mark to establish that $$P$$ is the son-in-law of $$S$$ in the following expression ?
$$P \times Q+R-T?S$$

Video Solution

Solution

From the expression $$P \times Q+R-T$$ we can make deductions as:

P is father of Q. Q is daughter of R. Hence, P and R are husband and wife.
Also, R is sister of T. Hence, R must be daughter or son of S for P to be son in law of S.

Hence, the correct option is E

Instructions

Study the following information to answer the given question:
Twelve people are sitting in two parallel rows containing six people each such that they are equidistant from each other. In row 1: P, Q, R, S, T and V are seated and all of them are facing South. In row 2: A, B, C, D, E and F are seated and all of them are facing North. Therefore in the given seating arrangement, each member is seated in a row faces another member of the other row.

S sits third to the right of Q.
Either S or Q sits at an extreme end of the line.
The one who faces Q sits second to the right of E.
Two people sit between B and F.
Neither B nor F sits at an extreme end of the line.
The immediate neighbour of B faces the person who sits third to the left of P.
R and T are immediate neighbours
C sits second to the left of A
T does not face the immediate neighbour of D.

Question 7

Who amongst the following sit at the extreme ends of the rows ?

Video Solution

Solution

From the first three conditions, two solns are possible

S _ _ Q _ _

_ E _ _ _ _

or

_ _ S _ _ Q

_ _ _ E _ _

As B and F have two people between them and neither are at the extremes, they must by in the second and fifth place. Hence, we can rule out configuration 1.

From the 6th condition, B should be fifth from left and F second.

Thus, we get

P _ S _ _ Q

_ F _ E B _

As C is second to the left of A, C must be first from left and A third. Hence, D is last from left. Thus, we can place all the people as follows

$$\downarrow$$ P V S T R Q

$$\uparrow$$ C F A E B D

Hence, P and D are at extreme ends.

Question 8

Who amongst the following faces S ?

Video Solution

Solution

From the first three conditions, two solns are possible

S _ _ Q _ _

_ E _ _ _ _

or

_ _ S _ _ Q

_ _ _ E _ _

As B and F have two people between them and neither are at the extremes, they must by in the second and fifth place. Hence, we can rule out configuration 1.

From the 6th condition, B should be fifth from left and F second.

Thus, we get

P _ S _ _ Q

_ F _ E B _

As C is second to the left of A, C must be first from left and A third. Hence, D is last from left. Thus, we can place all the people as follows

$$\downarrow$$ P V S T R Q

$$\uparrow$$ C F A E B D

Hence, it is evident that S faces A. Option A is correct.

Question 9

How many persons are seated between V and R ?

Video Solution

Solution

From the first three conditions, two solns are possible

S _ _ Q _ _

_ E _ _ _ _

or

_ _ S _ _ Q

_ _ _ E _ _

As B and F have two people between them and neither are at the extremes, they must by in the second and fifth place. Hence, we can rule out configuration 1.

From the 6th condition, B should be fifth from left and F second.

Thus, we get

P _ S _ _ Q

_ F _ E B _

As C is second to the left of A, C must be first from left and A third. Hence, D is last from left. Thus, we can place all the people as follows

$$\downarrow$$ P V S T R Q

$$\uparrow$$ C F A E B D

Two persons are seated between V and R.

Option B is correct option.

Question 10

P is related to A in the same way as S is related to B based on the given arrangement. Which of the following is T related to, following the same pattern ?

Video Solution

Solution

From the first three conditions, two solns are possible

S _ _ Q _ _

_ E _ _ _ _

or

_ _ S _ _ Q

_ _ _ E _ _

As B and F have two people between them and neither are at the extremes, they must by in the second and fifth place. Hence, we can rule out configuration 1.

From the 6th condition, B should be fifth from left and F second.

Thus, we get

P _ S _ _ Q

_ F _ E B _

As C is second to the left of A, C must be first from left and A third. Hence, D is last from left. Thus, we can place all the people as follows

$$\downarrow$$ P V S T R Q

$$\uparrow$$ C F A E B D

In the given arrangement, A is two places right of C which faces P.

B is two places to the right of A which faces S.

D is two places to the right of E which faces T.

Hence, the option correct option is B.
