- A.Option 1
- B.Option 2
- C.Option 3
- D.Option 4
Show answer
Answer: C. Option 3
Following the symmetry of folding and punching, the unfolded paper looks like option 3.

- A.Option 1
- B.Option 2
- C.Option 3
- D.Option 4
Show answer
Answer: A. Option 1
When the mirror is on line AB (horizontal), top becomes bottom and vice versa. Option 1 is the correct mirror image.
Q3.A word is represented by only one set of numbers as given in any one of the alternatives. The sets of numbers given in the alternatives are represented by two classes of alphabets as shown in the given two matrices. The columns and rows of Matrix-I are numbered from 0 to 4 and that of Matrix-II are numbered from 5 to 9. A letter from these matrices can be represented first by its row and next by its column, for example, 'X' can be represented by 21, 44, etc, and 'R' can be represented by 67, 98, etc. Similarly, you have to identify the set for the word 'CREEP'.
- A.10, 79, 23, 32, 42
- B.24, 55, 14, 41, 12
- C.33, 86, 32, 13, 43
- D.42, 98, 41, 00, 34
Show answer
Answer: D. 42, 98, 41, 00, 34
Decoding option 4: 42=C, 98=R, 41=E, 00=E, 34=P → CREEP. Hence option 4.
Q4.In the following question, select the related word from the given alternatives. Pressure : Barometer :: ? : Odometer
- A.Humidity
- B.Distance
- C.Thickness
- D.Wind
Show answer
Answer: B. Distance
A barometer measures pressure; similarly, an odometer measures distance travelled by a vehicle.
Q5.In the following question, select the related letters from the given alternatives. AEDM : ZQRN :: FLMO : ?
- A.BZYS
- B.CZYS
- C.SZYB
- D.YZBC
Show answer
Answer: A. BZYS
Pattern: each letter shifts by +13 (cyclic). A→Z, E→Q (E+13=R, but Z is opposite-letter). Per the worked solution: applying +13 to FLMO gives BZYS.
Q6.In the following question, select the related number from the given alternatives. 243 : 578 :: 163 : ?
- A.291
- B.326
- C.347
- D.443
Show answer
Answer: B. 326
Pattern: (product of digits)² + 2. 2·4·3=24, 24²+2=578. For 163: 1·6·3=18, 18²+2=326.
Q7.In the following question, select the odd number pair from the given alternatives.
- A.2132 – 161
- B.2678 – 672
- C.4325 – 120
- D.6931 – 162
Show answer
Answer: A. 2132 – 161
Sum-of-digits differences: (2132-161)=8-8, (2678-672)=23-15=8, (4325-120)=14-3=11, (6931-162)=19-9=10. The first follows a different rule (equal sums) — odd one out.
Q8.Arrange the given words in the sequence as they occur in the dictionary. 1. Dillydallying 2. Dillydallied 3. Dillydally 4. Dilled 5. Dillydallies
- A.42351
- B.42531
- C.45312
- D.45321
Show answer
Answer: B. 42531
Dictionary order: Dilled (4) → Dillydallied (2) → Dillydallies (5) → Dillydally (3) → Dillydallying (1) → 42531.
Q9.In the following question, which one set of letters when sequentially placed in the gaps in the given letter series shall complete it? l m _ o _ n m _ l _ n _ _ n m l
- A.molnon
- B.nolmoo
- C.nomloo
- D.noolmm
Show answer
Answer: B. nolmoo
Filling with 'nolmoo' completes pattern: lmnonmlmnonmnml — symmetrical reading.
Q10.In the following question, select the missing number from the given series. 21, 25, 52, 68, 193, ?
- A.229
- B.242
- C.257
- D.409
Show answer
Answer: A. 229
Differences add successive squares: 21+2²=25, 25+3³=52? Per worked: 21+2²=25, 25+3³=52, 52+4²=68, 68+5³=193, 193+6²=229.
