Question : Directions: Select the related letter cluster from the given alternatives.
VVXY : RRTU :: FFHI : ?

Option 1: XXYB

Option 2: CCDF

Option 3: UUVZ

Option 4: BBDE

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: BBDE


Solution : Given:
VVXY : RRTU :: FFHI : ?

Subtract 4 from the place value of each letter of VVXY to obtain the required code –
V – 4 = R; V – 4 = R; X – 4 = T; Y – 4 = U
Thus, VVXY is coded as RRTU.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for FFHI –
F – 4 = B; F – 4 = B; H – 4 = D; I – 4 = E

Thus, FFHI is coded as BBDE. Hence, the fourth option is correct.

Option 2: Affordable

Option 3: Definite

Option 4: Rigid

Question : Directions: In a certain code language, RHETORIC is coded as 6 and GURGLE is coded as 4. What will be the code for SIGNATURE in the given code language?

Option 1: 5

Option 2: 7

Option 3: 8

Option 4: 12

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: 7


Solution : Given:
RHETORIC is coded as 6 and GURGLE is coded as 4. 

Subtract 2 from the total number of letters in the word RHETORIC to obtain the required code –
RHETORIC: 8 – 2 = 6
Thus, RHETORIC is coded as 6.
And in, GURGLE is coded as 4 –
GURGLE: 6 – 2 = 4
Thus, GURGLE is coded as 4.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for SIGNATURE –
SIGNATURE: 9 – 2 = 7

Thus, SIGNATURE is coded as 7. Hence, the second option is correct.

Question : Directions: Read the given statements and conclusions carefully. You have to take the given statements to be true even if they seem to be at variance from commonly known facts. You have to decide which conclusion/s logically follow/s from the given statements.
Statements:
(I) All dances are art.
(II) Some walls are art.
(III) Some dances are groups.
Conclusions:
(I) Some walls are dances.
(II) Some groups are art.

Option 1: Both conclusions (I) and (II) do not follow

Option 2: Only conclusion (I) follows

Option 3: Both conclusions (I) and (II) follow

Option 4: Only conclusion (II) follows

Team Careers360 27th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: Only conclusion (II) follows


Solution : The possible Venn diagram according to the statements given in the question –

Let's check each conclusion –
Conclusions I: Some walls are dances – According to the Venn diagram, there is no definite relation between walls and dances. Therefore, this conclusion does not follow.
Conclusion II: Some groups are art – According to the Venn diagram, the circle of groups and art intersect and have some common area between them. Therefore, this conclusion follows.

So, the only conclusion II follows. Hence, the fourth option is correct.

Question : Directions: EGCB is related to MOKJ in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, PRNM is related to XZVU. To which of the following is KMIH related, following the same logic?

Option 1: SUQP

Option 2: RTQP

Option 3: SVOP

Option 4: QSPU

Team Careers360 26th Jan, 2024

Correct Answer: SUQP


Solution : Given:
EGCB is related to MOKJ and PRNM is related to XZVU.

Add 8 in the place value of the letters of EGCB, to get the required code –
E + 8 = M; G + 8 = O; C + 8 = K; B + 8 = J
Thus, EGCB is coded as MOKJ.
And, PRNM is related to XZVU –
P + 8 = X; R + 8 = Z; N + 8 = V; M + 8 = U
Thus, PRNM is coded as XZVU.
Similarly, follow the same pattern for KMIH –
K + 8 = S; M + 8 = U; I + 8 = Q; H + 8 = P

So, KMIH is related to SUQP. Hence, the first option is correct.
