Reasoning: Machine Input-Output Set 9 (New Pattern)

Directions (1 – 5): Answer the questions on the basis of the information given below.

A number arrangement machine when given an input of words/numbers, rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input and steps of rearrangement.

Input: 4    2    1    5    6    8    3 7
Step 1: 14    2    -1    23    34    62    7    47
Step 2: 5    2    -1    5    7    8    7 2
Step 3: 6    6    8    21    32    44    56    66
Step 4: 5    4    5    17    27    38    49    58
Step 5: 5    4    5    8    9    2    4    4
Step 6: 20    12    20    56    72    2    12 12

This is the final arrangement and step 6 is the last step for this input.

     Option B
    In each step some operation is performed
    Step 1: x2 – 2 like 4 => 42 – 2 = 14
    Step 2: Addition of digits to make it a single digit number, like 12 => 1+2 = 3, 47 => 4+7=11 => 1+1 = 2
    Step 3: +12, +22, +32, +42,….
    Step 4: -1, -2, -3, -4
    Step 5: Addition of digits to make it a single digit number
    Step 6: n * (n -1), eg 5 => 5 * (5-1) = 5*4 = 20, 1*(1-0) = 1
    Input: 12 7 4 9 6 2 3 8
    Step 1: 142 47 14 79 34 2 7 62
    Step 2: 7 2 5 7 7 2 7 8
    Step 3: 8 6 14 23 32 38 56 72
    Step 4: 7 4 11 19 27 32 49 64

Input: 11 pill but 9 5 ten 8 bat 7 doll

  1. Which word/number is third to right of seventh element from right end in step 6?
    A) 94
    B) bet
    C) tin
    D) 11
    E) doll
    View Answer
     Option E
    If we see the last step, it is found that changes are done in vowels as – a->e, e->I, i->o, o->u and u->a. And also words in each step are taken according to the sequence of vowels which is a, e, I, o, u
    And for numbers: Number are taking in ascending order, squared and digits reversed, so 4 => 4^2 = 16, become 61
    Input: 11 pill but 9 5 ten 8 bat 7 doll
    Step 1: bet 11 pill but 9 5 ten 8 7 doll
    Step 2: bet 11 pill but 9 ten 8 7 doll 52
    Step 3: bet tin 11 pill but 9 8 7 doll 52
    Step 4: bet tin 11 pill but 9 8 doll 52 94
    Step 5: bet tin poll 11 but 9 8 doll 52 94
    Step 6: bet tin poll 11 but 9 doll 52 94 46
    Step 7: bet tin poll dull 11 but 9 52 94 46
    Step 8: bet tin poll dull 11 but 52 94 46 18
    Step 9: bet tin poll dull bat 11 52 94 46 18
    Step 10: bet tin poll dull bat 52 94 46 18 121

    A) 20
    B) 9
    C) 19     
    D) 11
    E) 15
