1
number-patterns
medium
Find the missing number, if same rule is followed in all the three figures.
Answer: C
In each figure, (top + left + right) − 100 = middle number.
27 + 72 + 81 = 180, and 180 − 100 = 80. Also 90 + 50 + 80 = 220, and 220 − 100 = 120.
So the missing number is 42 + 72 + 46 − 100 = 160 − 100 = 60.

word-formation
easy
Select the combination of numbers so that the letters are arranged accordingly to form a meaningful English word.
N R S O G T
1 2 3 4 5 6
Answer: A
S(3) T(6) R(2) O(4) N(1) G(5) spells STRONG.
3
mirror-images
medium
Select the CORRECT mirror image of the given figure.
Answer: D
The mirror is on the right, so left and right swap. The green I part moves to the top-left and the orange K part to the top-right, and the pink E part moves to the bottom-left and the yellow T part to the bottom-right.
Every letter is also flipped, so K and E appear reversed (I and T look the same). Only D shows this.

embedded-figures
hard
Which of the following shapes is NOT exactly embedded in the given figure as one of its parts?
Answer: D
The triangle, the parallelogram and the diamond can all be traced along lines in the figure.
The figure has no long, thin rectangle, so D is not embedded.
5
analogy
hard
There is a certain relationship between the pair of figures on the either side of : :. Identify the relationship between the given pair and find the missing figure.
Answer: B
The first figure has 4 squares with 4 sides each: 4 × 4 = 16 sides. P is the 16th letter of the alphabet.
The second figure has 4 triangles with 3 sides each: 4 × 3 = 12 sides. The 12th letter is L.
6
grouping
easy
How many rabbits will be left, if equal groups of 4 rabbits each can be formed from the given rabbits?
Answer: B
There are 13 + 13 = 26 rabbits. 6 groups of 4 make 24, so 26 − 24 = 2 rabbits are left.
7
positions
easy
If the position of candies F and U get interchanged in the given arrangement, then how many candies are to the left of candy U?
Answer: C
F is 4th from the left. After swapping, U takes the 4th place, so 3 candies (A, C, D) are to its left.
8
counting-routes

In how many different ways can a bus reach to its terminal point?
Answer: B
Follow the arrows from the start: over the top, through the middle bend, along the lower slanting road, and along the straight bottom road. That makes 4 ways.

figure-counting
medium
Study the given figure carefully and select the CORRECT option.
Answer: B
The only curved lines are the 6 small circles in the triangles and the 1 small oval in the centre: 6 + 1 = 7.

easy
Arrange the paint brushes according to the increasing order of their lengths and select the CORRECT option.
Answer: A
P = 8 − 3 = 5 cm, Q = 9 − 1 = 8 cm, R = 9 − 2 = 7 cm and S = 12 − 1 = 11 cm.

pictograph
easy
The given pictograph shows the number of bicycles sold by a shop on the consecutive five days of a week. Study the given graph carefully and answer the question.
Find the difference between the number of bicycles sold on Monday and that on Friday.
Answer: A
Monday: 7 × 20 = 140. Friday: 4 × 20 = 80. Difference = 140 − 80 = 60.
14
pictograph
easy
Using the same pictograph, on how many days, the number of bicycles sold were more than 100?
Answer: C
More than 100 means more than 5 pictures. Monday (140) and Wednesday (120) — 2 days. Thursday is exactly 100, which is not more than 100.
15
fractions
medium
Observe the given three clues carefully and find the sum of greatest and smallest fraction.
Answer: B
X: there are 5 vowels, so 5/26. Y: there are 9 one-digit numbers (1 to 9), so 9/26. Z: there are 13 odd numbers, so 13/26.
Greatest + smallest = 13/26 + 5/26 = 18/26.

Read the given statements carefully and select the CORRECT option.
Answer: D
Boundary = 6 + 2 + 4 + 3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 2 + 6 + 12 = 48 m, so A is false.
Sleeping (horizontal) lines: 6, 4, 2, 2, 4, 6, which is 6 lines. Standing (vertical) lines: 2, 3, 2, 3, 2, 12, which is 6 lines. So B and C are false.
