JIPMER Entrance Logical and Quantitative Reasoning flashcards — 50 questions with answers

  1. In a number series, what is the typical first step to identify the pattern?

    Find the difference between consecutive terms; if constant it is arithmetic, if it grows look for multiplication, squares/cubes, or a second-level difference pattern.

  2. Identify the pattern type: 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ... What comes next?

    42. Differences increase by 2 (4,6,8,10,12); terms follow n(n+1).

  3. What rule governs the series 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, ...?

    Perfect squares of consecutive integers (n²); next term is 36.

  4. In a letter series, how are letters usually converted to work out the pattern?

    Replace each letter with its position number in the alphabet (A=1 ... Z=26), find the numeric pattern, then convert back to letters.

  5. Complete the letter series: A, C, E, G, ... What is next and why?

    I. Each letter skips one (positions 1,3,5,7,9), increasing by 2.

  6. What is a 'mixed series' in series completion?

    A series combining both letters and numbers (alphanumeric), where letters and numbers may follow separate but interlinked patterns.

  7. Define analogy in reasoning.

    A relationship in which a pair of items shares a specific relation, and you must find another pair sharing the same relation (A is to B as C is to D).

  8. In the analogy 'Doctor : Hospital :: Teacher : ?', what is the answer and the relationship?

    School. Relationship = worker to their workplace.

  9. What is classification (odd-one-out) reasoning?

    Identifying the item in a group that does not share the common property of the others; all but one belong to the same category.

  10. In classification, which is the odd one out: Rose, Lotus, Marigold, Mango? Why?

    Mango. The others are flowers; mango is a fruit.

  11. What is coding-decoding in reasoning?

    A method of encrypting words/numbers using a rule (shifting letters, substitution, etc.); you decode by reversing the rule.

  12. If in a code CAT = DBU, what is the coding rule?

    Each letter is shifted forward by +1 in the alphabet (C→D, A→B, T→U).

  13. If DOG is coded as 4-15-7, what coding rule is used?

    Each letter is replaced by its alphabet position number (D=4, O=15, G=7).

  14. In blood relations, who is your 'paternal uncle'?

    Your father's brother.

  15. In blood relations, who is your 'maternal aunt'?

    Your mother's sister.

  16. What relation is 'your father's sister's husband' to you?

    Your uncle (aunt's husband / paternal uncle by marriage).

  17. What does 'sister-in-law' mean in family-tree problems?

    Either your spouse's sister, or your brother's wife.

  18. In a blood relation puzzle, what is the standard technique to solve generation-based statements?

    Draw a family tree diagram using symbols (e.g., + for male, - for female, = for married couple, vertical lines for children) and place each clue.

  19. What is a syllogism?

    A logical argument with two premises and a conclusion, where the conclusion must logically follow from the premises (e.g., All A are B; All B are C; therefore All A are C).

  20. What are the four standard categorical statement types in syllogisms?

    Universal affirmative (All A are B), Universal negative (No A is B), Particular affirmative (Some A are B), Particular negative (Some A are not B).

  1. In syllogism Venn-diagram method, when is a conclusion valid?

    Only when it holds true in every possible diagram that can be drawn from the premises.

  2. From 'All cats are animals; All animals are mortal', what conclusion follows?

    All cats are mortal.

  3. In figure series, what types of changes should you look for?

    Rotation, reflection, addition/removal of elements, change in size/shading/number, and movement of elements step by step.

  4. What is pattern completion in figure-based reasoning?

    Selecting the missing piece that completes a larger figure or pattern by matching lines, shading, and orientation at the cut edges.

  5. What is a mirror image?

    The reflection of an object as seen in a vertical mirror placed beside it; left and right are reversed while top and bottom stay the same.

  6. What is a water image?

    The reflection of an object as seen in water (horizontal mirror below); top and bottom are inverted while left and right stay the same.

  7. Which letters look the same as their mirror image (vertical mirror) in uppercase?

    Symmetric letters about a vertical axis: A, H, I, M, O, T, U, V, W, X, Y.

  8. Which uppercase letters remain unchanged in their water image (horizontal mirror)?

    Letters symmetric about a horizontal axis: B, C, D, E, H, I, K, O, X.

  9. What does paper folding and cutting (punched-paper) reasoning test?

    Predicting the pattern of holes/cuts that appears when a folded, punched paper is unfolded, using symmetry across each fold line.

  10. In paper folding, how do holes multiply with each fold?

    Each fold doubles the number of holes upon unfolding, mirrored across the fold line (1 fold → 2 holes per punch, 2 folds → 4, etc.).

  11. What is an embedded (hidden) figure problem?

    Finding a given simple figure concealed within a larger complex figure without rotation or change of proportion.

  12. Key rule for solving embedded figure questions?

    The target figure must appear in the complex figure in the same shape, size, and orientation (not rotated or distorted).

  13. State the BODMAS/order of operations rule.

    Brackets, Orders (powers/roots), Division and Multiplication (left to right), Addition and Subtraction (left to right).

  14. What is the divisibility rule for 3?

    A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 3.

  15. What is the divisibility rule for 11?

    A number is divisible by 11 if the difference between the sum of digits in odd positions and the sum in even positions is 0 or a multiple of 11.

  16. What is the divisibility rule for 9?

    A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of its digits is divisible by 9.

  17. State the relationship between LCM, HCF and two numbers.

    Product of the two numbers = LCM × HCF.

  18. How do you convert a fraction to a percentage?

    Multiply the fraction by 100 (e.g., 3/4 = 3/4 × 100 = 75%).

  19. What is the formula for percentage increase?

    Percentage increase = (Increase / Original value) × 100.

  20. Define ratio and proportion.

    A ratio compares two quantities by division (a:b); a proportion states two ratios are equal (a:b = c:d, i.e., a×d = b×c).

  21. In a proportion a:b = c:d, what is the product rule?

    Product of means = product of extremes: b×c = a×d.

  22. What is the formula for profit percentage?

    Profit% = (Profit / Cost Price) × 100, where Profit = Selling Price − Cost Price.

  23. What is the formula for loss percentage?

    Loss% = (Loss / Cost Price) × 100, where Loss = Cost Price − Selling Price.

  24. State the simple interest formula.

    SI = (P × R × T) / 100, where P = principal, R = rate% per annum, T = time in years.

  25. State the compound interest amount formula (annual compounding).

    A = P(1 + R/100)^T; Compound Interest = A − P.

  26. State the relationship between speed, distance and time.

    Speed = Distance / Time; Distance = Speed × Time; Time = Distance / Speed.

  27. How do you convert km/h to m/s?

    Multiply by 5/18 (e.g., 36 km/h = 36 × 5/18 = 10 m/s).

  28. In time-and-work problems, if A finishes a job in n days, what is A's one-day work?

    1/n of the work per day.

  29. If A does a job in 'a' days and B in 'b' days, how long together?

    Together they take ab/(a+b) days, since combined one-day work = 1/a + 1/b.

  30. In data interpretation, how do you read a value from a table versus a graph?

    In a table, locate the intersecting row and column; in a graph (bar/line/pie), read the value off the axis or convert the pie sector's percentage/angle (angle/360 × total) into the actual quantity.
