Nucleus-Software Reasoning Question

DIRECTIONS for question 1 to 4:Refer to the graph and answer the given question:
  1. What is the difference between the total number of scarves sold by store M in 2003 and 2004 together and total number of scarves sold by store N in 2005 and 2006 together?
    1. 160
    2.  100
    3.  140
    4.  150
    5.  120
    Answer: Option E.
    Total Number of scarves sold store M in 2003 and 2004= 190+320= 510
    Total Number of scarves sold store M in 2005 and 2006=260+370= 630
    Difference between the total Number of scarves sold store M in 2003 & 2004 and Total Number of scarves sold store N in 2005 and 2006 is = 630 – 510 = 120.
  2. Number of scarves sold by store M decreased by what percent from 2004 to 2005?
    1. 40 5/8
    2.  45 3/8
    3. 42 3/8
    4.  30 3/8
    5.  35 5/8
    Answer:  Option A
  1.  430               
  2. 450                
  3.  420               
  4.  460               
  5. 440
Answer: Option E.
Ratio between total number scarves sold by stores M & N together in 2002 and that in 2009 is 15:11.
Total number scarves sold by stores M & N together in 2002 = 240+360 = 600
According to question, 600/X= 15/11
Or, x = 440
Total number scarves sold by stores M & N together in 2009 = 440.
  • If the total number of scarves sold by stores M and N together in 2008 is 10% more than that in 2006, what is the total number of scarves sold by stores M and N together in 2008?
    1. 638                
    2. 406                
    3. 414                
    4. 396                
    5.  408
    Answer: Option A.
    Total number of scarves sold by stores M & N in 2006 = 210+370 = 580
    Total number of scarves sold by stores M & N in 2008 = 580×110/100 = 638
    DIRECTIONS for question 5 to 7:Study the given information carefully to answer the given question.
    R is 15m west of Q. J is 6m north of Q. W is 2m west of J. L is 10m south of W. K is 6m west of L.
  • If F is 4m to the south of R and V is 2m east of K, how far is Point F from Point V?
    1. 8m                            
    2. 11m                              
    3. 5m                               
    4.  9m                           
    5.  4m
    Answer: Option D.
    The following diagram can be formed with the given information.
    Now, FL = RQ – WJ = 15 – 2 = 13m
    Further, FV = FL – VL = 13 – 4 = 9m
     
  • Kabir walks 10m towards south from Point J, takes a right turn and walks for 3m. How far will he be from Point K?
    1.  4m                         
    2. 10m                        
    3.  9m                         
    4.  6m                         
    5. 5m
    Answer: Option E.
    As shown in the diagram, if Kabir walks 10 m towards south from point J, he will reach at point Y. Then, moving 3 m to the right side, he will finally reach point X.
    Now, XL = XY – LY = 3 – 2 = 1 m
    And distance between X and K = KL – XL = 6 – 1 = 5m
  • In which direction is R with respect to J?
    1. West                             
    2.  South east                 
    3. North east                  
    4. North                           
    5. South west
    Answer: Option E.
    As per the diagram, it can be observed that R is towards South-west with respect to J.
    DIRECTIONS for question 8 to 10:What will come in place of question mark (?) in the given number series?
  • 700  457  376  349  340  ?
    1. 266                                      
    2. 329                                      
    3. 304                                      
    4. 337                                      
    5. 307
    Answer: Option D
    Given series is:
    700                  457                          376                          349                     340                  ?
    Pattern is 700 – 457 = 243, 457 – 376 = 81, 376 – 349 = 27, 349 – 340 = 9
    Thus, the next term is 340 – 3 = 337
  • 1  2  6  21  88  ?
    1.  425                                     
    2.  475                                     
    3. 295
    4.  445                                     
    5.  395
    Answer: Option D.
    Given series is:
    1             2            6           21          88           ?
    Pattern is 1×1+1= 2
    2×2+2= 6
    6×3+3=21
    21×4+4= 88
    88×5+5= 445
    So the next term of the series is = 445
  • 19  20  16  25  9  ?
    1. 45                                      
    2. 55                                      
    3. 59                                      
    4.  34                                     
    5.  81
    Answer: Option D
    Given series is:
    19         20          16         25          9            ?
    Pattern is 19 – 20 =  -1
    20 – 16 = 4
    16 – 25 = -9
    25 – 9 = 16
    So, next term of the series is = 9 – (-25) = 34
