Reasoning For BOB/IBPS Exams

Dear Readers,

Reasoning For BOB/IBPS Exams |_2.1

We have started the 56 days Study Plan for IBPS PO Prelims.  This study plan is to efficiently utilise time and hard work to channelise it towards smart work. From now quizzes on Bankersadda will be according to the given study plan and this will help you prepare important topics in limited time. 
Today is DAY 28 of the study plan and in Reasoning today’s chapter is Machine Input-Output.


Directions (1-5): Study the given information carefully and answer the given questions:
When a word and number arrangement machine is given an input line of words and numbers, it arranges them following a particular rule. The following is an illustration of an input and rearrangement (All the numbers are two-digit numbers):
Input:  24 method 87 67 of data 34 collection 45 12 specified now
Step I:  12 method 87 67 of data 34 collection 45 specified now 24
Step II:  34 12 method 87 67 of data collection specified now 24 45
Step III:  67 34 12 method of data collection specified now 24 45 87
Step IV:  collection 67 34 12 method of specified now 24 45 87 data
Step V:  method collection 67 34 12 of specified 24 45 87 data now
Step VI:  of method collection 67 34 12 24 45 87 data now specified
And Step VI is the last step of the above arrangement as the intended arrangement is obtained.
As per the rules followed in the given steps, find out the appropriate steps for the given input.

Input:  38 role care 15 25 ball note down 42 45
Step I:  45 38 role care 15 25 note down 42 ball
Step II:  42 45 38 role 15 25 note down ball care
Step III:  38 42 45 role 15 25 note ball care down
Step IV:  25 38 42 45 role 15 ball care down note
Step V:  15 25 38 42 45 ball care down note role
Step VI:  ball care down note role 6 6 7 9 11
And Step VI is the last step of the above arrangement as the intended arrangement is obtained.
As per the rules followed in the given steps, find out the appropriate steps for the given input.
Input:  level establish 56 relation given 48 52 find 37 justify 40 32

Directions (11-15): Study the following information carefully and answer the questions given below:
A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of an input and its rearrangement:
Input:  each 22 centre 35 28 face bat 37 18 hot let 20
Step I:  37 each 22 centre 35 28 face 18 hot let 20 bat
