Logical Reasoning Test 1

Some Important Questions of Logical Reasoning 

Q.1
I-School A has more admissions than School B

II- School C has fewer admissions than School B

III- School A has fewer admissions than School C

If the first two statements are TRUE, the third statement is 

A) False

B) True

C) Uncertain

D) Unresolved

EXPLANATION:

A > B (given)

B > C (given)

C > A (given)

If School A has greater admissions than B and school B has greater admissions than C, then how does C have greater admissions C? 

So the third statement is False 

Q.2 

I- All the roses in Maria's garden are white. 

II- All the petunias in Marias's garden are yellow

III- All the flowers in Maria's garden are either white or yellow.

If the first two statements are TRUE, the third statement is 

A) False

B) True

C) Uncertain

D) Unresolved

Explanation:

The third statement states about the flowers whereas the first statement 'roses' are mentioned, and the second statement states about 'petunia'. So there is no clear evidence that Maria's garden has either roses or petonia. 

So the third statement is Uncertain  


Q.3

I- All chickens are birds.

II- Some chickens are hens. 

III- Male birds do not lay eggs. 

If all the statements are TRUE, which of the following must be TRUE.  

1- (All) Hens are birds

2- All birds lay eggs

3- Some chickens are not hens

A) 1 and 2 only 

B) 2 and 3 only

C) 3 only

D) 1 and 3 only

The correct answer is D) 1 and 3 only.


Explanation:

I. All chickens are birds (Given)

II. Some chickens are hens (Given)

III. Male birds do not lay eggs (Given)

Only conclusion 3: "Some chickens are not hens" necessarily follows from the given statements and the other conclusions do not necessarily follow:

Conclusion 1: "All hens are birds" is true, but it's not a necessary conclusion based on the given statements.

Conclusion 2: "All birds lay eggs" is false, since male birds do not lay eggs (III).

So, the correct answer is C) 3 only 

Q.4 

If the day before yesterday is Saturday, what day will fall on the day after tomorrow?
A) Monday
B) Tuesday
C) Wednesday
D) Friday

Explanation:
The day before yesterday is Saturday. It means today is 'Monday', and tomorrow is Tuesday, and the day after tomorrow is Wednesday.
The correct answer is C) Wednesday

How to find the missing digits in the series  How to find digits in a series is both difficult as well as easy. There are some necessary initiatives that are helpful to solve the solution: For example:  Multiples of Even numbers: 2 x 1 = 2 2 x 2 = 4 2 x 3 = 6 2 x 4 = 8 And so on  2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 and so on Multiples of odd numbers are numbers that can be expressed as the product of an odd number and an integer. For example: Multiples of 3  3 x 1 = 3 3 x 2 = 6 3 x 3 = 9 3 x 4 = 12  3 x 5 = 15 3 x 6 = 18 And so on  3,  6,  9,  12, 15,  and so on The same is the multiples of 5  5 x 1 = 5 5 x 2 = 10 5 x 3 = 15 5 x 4 = 20  And so on  3,  6,  9,  12, 15,  20 and so on Model Questions: Q.1 There is a series of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 ......  Find the next digit in the given series? A) 27 B) 29 C) 30 D) 31 Solution:  It is a series of the multiple of the odd digit  '5'  1 x 5 = 5 2 x 5 =...
