Directions (11-14):
A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement.
Input : orange 59 apple 53 73 61 Banana chiku 67 mango
Step I : apple orange 59 53 61 Banana chiku 67 mango 73
Step II : Banana apple orange 59 53 61 chiku mango 73 67
Step III : chiku Banana apple orange 59 53 mango 73 67 61
Step IV : mango chiku Banana apple orange 53 73 67 61 59
Step V : orange mango chiku Banana apple 73 67 61 59 53
And step V is the last step of the arrangement.
As per the above rule followed in the above steps, find out in each of the following questions the appropriate step for the input given below;
Input : 53 enter tree 41 81 the cream into 47 action 87 59
11. How many steps would be needed to complete the arrangement?
(1) IV
(2) V
(3) VI
(4) VII
(5) None of these
12. Which Step number would be the following output?
Into enter cream action tree 41 the 47 87 81 59 53
(1) III
(2) II
(3) VII
(4) IV
(5) There will be no such step
13. Which of the following would be the step I?
(1) action 53 cream tree 41 the into 47 59 87 81
(2) action cream 41 tree 53 the into 59 87 81 47
(3) action 53 enter tree 41 81 the cream into 47 87 59
(4) action 53 enter tree 81 41 cream into 59 47 87
(5) None of these
14. In step V, which of the following word/number would be on the 6th position (from the right)?
(1) 87
(2) 41
(3) 47
(4) tree
(5) action
ANSWERS
1. (4) The pairs are BA, ON & ONAR. So two pairs.
2. (2)
P is towards the east of Q and H is towards south of P. Hence H is towards south-east of Q.
3. (1)
4. (3)
? = 7 – 6 X 15 ÷ 48 + 6
= 7 X 6 + 15 ¬– 48 ÷ 6 = 49
5. (3)
59164823
98654321
So position of only 4 and 2 will remain unchanged.
