Cut-e Test Cut-e Logical Reasoning

Question 1

In a Cut-e logical reasoning test, you are given the rule: 'All X are Y. Some Y are Z.' What can you definitively conclude?

Accepted Answer

Some X may be Z

Answer

Since all X are Y and only some Y are Z, it is possible but not certain that some X are also Z, making 'some X may be Z' the only defensible conclusion.

Question 2

A sequence reads: 2, 6, 18, 54, ___. What is the next number?

Accepted Answer

162

Answer

Each term is multiplied by 3: 2×3=6, 6×3=18, 18×3=54, 54×3=162.

Question 3

If 'faster' means 'slower' and 'louder' means 'quieter', what does 'stronger' mean in this logic system?

Accepted Answer

Weaker

Answer

The pattern reverses each descriptor to its antonym, so 'stronger' maps to 'weaker'.

Question 4

Four employees — Ava, Ben, Cal, and Dee — each prefer a different project. Ava does not prefer Alpha. Ben prefers Beta. Cal does not prefer Gamma. Which project does Ava prefer?

Accepted Answer

Delta

Answer

Ben takes Beta, leaving Alpha, Gamma, Delta; Ava cannot take Alpha, Cal cannot take Gamma, so Cal takes Alpha or Delta; working through constraints, Ava must take Delta.

Question 5

Which statement is an example of deductive reasoning?

Accepted Answer

All managers attend Monday meetings; Sara is a manager; therefore Sara attends Monday meetings.

Answer

Deductive reasoning moves from a general rule to a specific, certain conclusion, as illustrated by the manager-meeting syllogism.
