Logical Reasoning Sample Questions

Logical Reasoning Sample Questions

• Identifying Patterns: Look for recurring sequences or relationships in a series of numbers, letters, or shapes. Example: Find the next term in the sequence 2, 4, 8, 16... Answer: 32 (pattern of doubling)

• Analogies: Determine the relationship between two words or pairs of words and apply that relationship to a third word or pair. Example: Hot is to cold as day is to... Answer: Night (opposites)

• Deductive Reasoning: Use given premises to draw conclusions. Example: All mammals are warm-blooded. Cats are mammals. Therefore, cats are warm-blooded. Answer: True

• Inductive Reasoning: Identify patterns and generalizations from specific examples. Example: The sun rises every day. Therefore, the sun will rise tomorrow. Answer: Likely/probable (not certain)

• Problem Solving: Apply logical steps to address complex scenarios. Example: A person needs to get across a river, using a boat that can only hold one other person or object. They need to ferry a wolf, a goat, and a cabbage across. What is the solution for not losing any due to the wolf eating the goat or the goat eating the cabbage? Answer: Complex problem solving with multiple steps needs to be mapped out; requires understanding constraints to logically arrive at a valid answer.

• Syllogisms: Assess arguments based on logical structures. Example: All squares are rectangles. All rectangles have four sides. Therefore, all squares have four sides? Answer: True (valid syllogism)

• Spatial Reasoning: Visualize objects or figures in different positions or orientations. Example: A figure is rotated in different perspectives, and a user has to identify the correct rotated figure. Answer: Complex problem solving requiring visualizations or diagrams of rotated figures to solve.

Quantitative Aptitude Sample Questions

• Number Series: Identify the pattern in a sequence of numbers and predict the next term. Example: 3, 6, 9, 12, ... Answer: 15 (adding 3 each time).

• Arithmetic Operations: Perform calculations involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Example: 25 + 15 x 2 - 10 Ans: 45

• Percentage Calculations: Find a percentage of a given number. Example: What is 20% of 80? Answer: 16

• Ratio and Proportion: Compare two quantities by their ratio. Example: If A:B = 2:3 and B=12, what is A? Answer: 8

• Average: Determine the mean of a set of numbers. Example: Find the average of 10, 20, 30, and 40. Answer: 25

• Simple Interest: Calculate the interest earned on an investment. Example: An amount is invested at 5% simple interest. How much interest will be accrued over 2 years? Answer: Depends on the invested principal.

• Compound Interest: Account for interest accruing on the interest itself. Example: A sum accrues 10% compound interest over 3 years. What is the interest accrued? Answer: Depends on the invested principal.

• Profit and Loss: Determine the profit or loss on a transaction. Example: Cost 20; sold for 25; profit? Answer: 5

• Time, Speed, and Distance: Relate these three variables using formulas. Example: If a person walks at 5 km/hr for 2 hours, what distance was covered? Answer: 10 km

• Data Interpretation: Analyze data presented in charts, graphs, or tables to extract information. Example: A line graph depicting sales overtime; which month experienced the largest increase in sales?

• Algebraic Equations: Solve equations involving variables. Example: Solve for x in the equation 2x + 5 = 11. Answer: x = 3

• Geometry: Apply geometric principles to solve problems relating to shapes, areas, and volumes. Example: A circle of radius 5; what is its area. Answer: depends on the formula and input

• Problem Solving using Quantitative Strategies: Apply various mathematical methods to solve complex practical problems (word problems requiring application of several of the above concepts to arrive at an answer).
