Q405.On a panel with switches A, B, and C: If only A is on, turn B on. If only A & B are on, turn C on. If all three are on, turn C off. If A is off in the second setting, what was the initial setting?
Correct Answer: C
For initial setting 'A on, B off, C on' (which is 'any other setting'), we turn on off and off on, flipping A to off.

Q409.On a panel with switches A, B, C: If only A & B are on, turn C on. If all are on, turn C off. If all three are on in the second setting, what was the initial setting?
Correct Answer: B
If initial is 'A on, B on, C off', the rule says turn on C, resulting in all three being on.
Q410.In National Refinery, A is B's immediate superior, C is superior to D, B works under E, and F is superior to C. Which statement cannot be true?
Correct Answer: D
Since B works under E, and A is the superior of B, B has a defined hierarchy. Saying B works under D would contradict other hierarchical constraints.
Q411.Six racers (R, S, T, U, V, W) compete: S does not win. Only 2 racers separate V and U. R is behind U and V. S is ahead of V, with 1 racer intervening. W is ahead of U. How many racers separate R and W?
Correct Answer: D
Solving the conditions gives the unique order: W, U, S, T, V, R. The number of racers separating W (1st) and R (6th) is 4.
Q412.Five films A, B, C, D, E are shown: A is shown earlier than C. B is shown earlier than D. E is not shown 5th. What is an acceptable order?
Correct Answer: D
Option D satisfies all conditions: B is before D, A is before C, and E (3rd) is not 5th.
Q413.In a class of 60 males and 35 females, 80% failed in Chemistry and 30% failed in English. Which of the following must be true?
Correct Answer: D
Since 80% failed Chemistry, the absolute number of failures (76) exceeds both the total male (60) and female (35) populations individually, so both genders must have some failures.
Q414.What is different from the rest? LP, HK, AC, DG
Correct Answer: C
For LP (+4), HK (+3), and DG (+3), the second letter follows the first. AC (+2) is the first two odd positions, making it the odd one out.

Q417.If BOOK is coded as ANPL, what is the code for HAND?
Correct Answer: A
The letter shifts are -1, -1, +1, +1. H-1=G, A-1=Z, N+1=O, D+1=E, yielding GZOE.
Q418.Complete the given series: 7, 49, 6, 36, 5, ?
Correct Answer: C
The series alternates a number with its square: 7, 7²=49, 6, 6²=36, 5, 5²=25.
Q419.What will come next: 7 + 2 - 1 = H, 22 + 6 - 5 = W, 11 + 6 - 2 = ?
Correct Answer: C
The arithmetic sum gives the position in the alphabet: 11+6-2 = 15. The 15th letter of the alphabet is O.
Q420.Complete the given series: 3, 8, 15, 24, ?
Correct Answer: D
The differences are increasing odd numbers: +5, +7, +9, +11. 24 + 11 = 35.
