Reasoning Quiz For RBI Grade B Phase 1 2023-22nd March

Directions (1-5): 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 input and rearrangement.

Input: naughty 46 dynamic 49 provide 38 advance 78 minus 65
Step 1: advance 24 naughty 46 dynamic 49 provide 78 minus 65
Step II: dynamic 24 advance 24 naughty 49 provide 78 minus 65
Step III: minus 36 dynamic 24 advance 24 naughty provide 78 65
Step IV: naughty 30 minus 36 dynamic 24 advance 24 provide 78
Step V: provide 56 naughty 30 minus 36 dynamic 24 advance 24
Step VI: provide 11 naughty 03 minus 09 dynamic 06 advance 06
And step VI is the last step of the rearrangement. As per the rules followed in the above step, rearrange the given input and answer the related questions.

Solutions

Solution (1-5):
Sol. In the first step, the word, which comes first in dictionary order, is placed at the extreme left end. The smallest number is replaced by its product of digits and is placed 2nd from the extreme left end (just after the first word).
In the second step, the word, which comes second in dictionary order, is placed, at the extreme end. The 2nd smallest number is replaced by its product of digits and is placed 2nd from the extreme left end (both the elements are arranged just before the elements which are arranged in first step). This process continues for all the words and numbers.
In last step, only the digits of the number are added and words will remain same.
