Q461.Which picture contains different shapes compared to the other four?
Correct Answer: D
Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4 are composed of identical matching shapes, whereas Figure 5 is composed of 4 entirely different shapes.
Q462.Classification Figures: Which one is different from the 5 pictures based on dots?
Correct Answer: D
All other diagrams contain exactly one single dot, whereas Figure 5 contains 2 dots, making it different.
Q463.Classification Figures: Identify the odd one based on shape combinations.
Correct Answer: D
Figures 1 through 4 consist of a combination of one small and one big distinct shape (e.g., big rectangle + small circle). Figure 5 is different because it consists of two identical shapes.
Q464.A man is facing west. He turned 45 degrees in the clockwise direction, then another 180 degrees in the same direction, and then 270 degrees in the anticlockwise direction. Which direction is he facing now?
Correct Answer: D
Tracking angles from West (270°): 1) Clockwise 45°: 270 + 45 = 315° (NW). 2) Clockwise 180°: 315 + 180 = 495° (which is 495 - 360 = 135°, SE). 3) Anticlockwise 270°: 135 - 270 = -135° (which is 360 - 135 = 225°, SW). Thus, he faces South-West.
Q465.If FACE is coded as 6135, then how is ACE coded?
Correct Answer: C
Letter position coding where F = 6, A = 1, C = 3, and E = 5. By isolating the letters for ACE, we get 135.
Q466.A is to E as C is to _______?
Correct Answer: A
There is a difference of 3 alphabets between terms: A (+4 letters) is E (B, C, D skipped). Applying the same gap to C: C (+4 letters) yields G (D, E, F skipped).
Q467.Which is the letter that follows the letter which is midway between E and Q?
Correct Answer: C
The alphabet letters between E (5th) and Q (17th) are: F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P. The midway letter is K (6th letter from both ends). The letter that follows K in the alphabet is L.
Q468.A policeman wears a uniform because ____________
Correct Answer: C

Q471.What will come next in the following series: 17, 35, 72, 147, ______?
Correct Answer: C
The pattern is multiplying by 2 and adding an increasing integer: 17*2 + 1 = 35; 35*2 + 2 = 72; 72*2 + 3 = 147; 147*2 + 4 = 298.
Q472.A is the father of B but B is not A's son. What is the relationship of B to A?
Correct Answer: B
Since A is the father of B, B must be A's child. If B is not a son, B must be a daughter.
Q473.What will come next in the alphabet series: A, C, F, J, ______?
Correct Answer: B
The gaps between letters increase by 1 each time: A (+2) = C; C (+3) = F; F (+4) = J; J (+5) = O.
Q474.What will come next: 20, 25, 23, 28, 26, 31, 29, 34, ______?
Correct Answer: B
The pattern alternates: add 5, then subtract 2. 20+5=25; 25-2=23; 23+5=28; 28-2=26; 26+5=31; 31-2=29; 29+5=34; 34-2=32.
Q475.What will come next in the following series: 4, 12, 36, 108, ______?
Correct Answer: C
Each term is multiplied by 3 to get the next: 4*3=12; 12*3=36; 36*3=108; 108*3=324.
Q476.What comes next in the arithmetic sequence: 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, ______?
Correct Answer: C
The sequence increases by a common difference of 2: 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23.
Q477.If STEP is coded as 3165, then how is PETS coded?
Correct Answer: A
The letter mapping from STEP = 3165 is: s = 3, t = 1, e = 6, p = 5. Rearranging to PETS gives: p(5), e(6), t(1), s(3) = 5613.
Q478.Find the odd one out among fruits:
Correct Answer: C
All are fruits, but mango may be considered the odd one out because it is a single-seeded fruit (drupe) containing a large kernel, whereas the others contain multiple seeds.
Q479.What comes next in the series: 19, 38, 57, ______?
Correct Answer: B
This series consists of consecutive multiples of 19: 19×1=19, 19×2=38, 19×3=57, 19×4=76.
