Quiz for 3rd of August covers the Floor based puzzle, Input output, Resultant based questions.

Direction(1-5):Study the information carefully and answer the questions given below.
Eight persons A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H are living in a four storey building such as ground floor is numbered as 1, above it is floor 2 then top floor is numbered as 4. Each of the floor has 2 flats in it as flat-1 and flat-2. Flat-2 is in east of flat-1. Flat-1 of floor-2 is immediately above flat-1 of floor-1 and immediately below flat-1 of floor-3 and so on. In the same way flat-2 of floor-2 is immediately above flat-2 of floor-1 and immediately below flat-2 of floor-3 and so on. They all are from eight different countries i.e. India, Oman, Uk, Italy, Canada, Pakistan, Brazil and Russia but not necessarily in the same order.

The one who is from oman lives on odd number floor and live in odd number flat. There is no floor between the one who is from oman and E, whose flat is in the south east of the one who is from oman. Two floor gap between F and B who is from Pakistan. G lives immediately above flat of E. The one who is from Russia and the person who is from Uk live on same floor. The ones who are from Italy and Pakistan live in same flat number. E is not from Italy. C lives on 4th floor and in flat-2. F does not live in flat-2 and does not like Italy. The one who is from Italy does not live on floor no.3.The one who is from Canada lives immediately above the floor of person who is from Russia. A lives immediately above flat of D. D is not from Uk. F does not live below A. The one who is from India lives below the floor of the one who is from russia. F is not from Canada.

Directions (6-10): Study the following information carefully to answer the given questions:
A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement.
INPUT—4528 6720 5329 4819 8104 1469
STEP I-- 5482 7602 3592 8491 1840 4196

STEP V- 6 7 5 6 3 6.5

Step V is the last step of the rearrangement. As per the rules followed in the above steps, find out in each of the following questions the appropriate steps for the given input.

Input: 2193 8763 7132 5248 3295 6952

Q6. What will the addition of the numbers which is third, fifth and sixth from the left end in step IV?

None of these

Solution:

Sol. In the given Input-output the logic applied is—
For Step I: The first and second digit is interchanged also third and forth digits are interchanged of each number within the number.
Step II: all the numbers are arranged in ascending order from left end.
Step III: First and last digits are omitted from each number.
Step IV: Sum of the digits of each number.
Step V: Each number is divided by two.
Input: 2193 8763 7132 5248 3295 6952
STEP I: 1239 7836 1723 2584 2359 9625

7836

4367

9625

None of these

Solution:

Direction (11-15): There are two rows given and to find out the resultant of a particular row we need to follow the following steps: -
Step 1: If an odd number is followed by an even number then the resultant will be the addition of both the numbers.
Step 2: If an even number is followed by a perfect square then the resultant will be the difference of that square number and the even number.
Step 3: If an even number is followed by another even number (but not a perfect square) then the resultant will be the addition of both the numbers.
Step 4: If an even number is followed by an odd number (but not a perfect square) then the resultant comes by multiplying the numbers.
Step 5: If an odd number is followed by another odd number then the resultant will be the division of first number by the second number.

Q11. Find the sum of the resultant of two rows?
8 49 10
8 7 36

None of the above

Solution:

In row-1
Even number is followed by a perfect square so=49-8= 41
41 10
an odd number is followed by an even number= 41+10=51
In row-2
Even number is followed by an odd number so=8*7= 56
56 36
Even number is followed by a perfect square = 56-36=20
So, the addition of resultant of two rows = 51+20 = 71

Q12. Find the difference of the resultant of two rows?
5 8 14
14 12 7

156

167

159

160

None of the above

Solution:

In row-1
An odd number is followed by an even number so=5+8= 13
13 14
An odd number is followed by an even number so=13+14= 27
In row-2
Even number is followed by an even number so = 14+12= 26
26 7
Even number is followed by an odd number so = 26*7= 182
So the difference of resultant of the two rows = 182-27=155

Q13. Find the value of X if the addition of the resultant of first and second row is 32?
4 25 X
7 12 6

Solution:

In row-1
Even number is followed by an perfect square number so=25-4 = 21
21 X
In row-2
Odd number is followed by an even number so = 7+12 = 19
19 6
An odd number is followed by an even number so=19+6= 25
The addition of the resultant of the both rows = 32
So, resultant of first row is 32-25=7.
Now for row-1 21 X = 7
So, the only possible value of X can be 3.

Q14. Find the value Y if the difference is the resultant of two rows is 113?
8 18 7
25 5 Y
