  1. All managers are employees. Some employees are part-time. Which conclusion must be true?

    Answer: Some managers may be part-time

    Since only 'some' employees are part-time, managers (a subset of employees) may or may not be among that group.

  2. A store reduces a price by 20%, then increases the reduced price by 25%. What is the net change?

    Answer: 5% increase

    0.80 × 1.25 = 1.00... wait: 0.80 × 1.25 = 1.00, so actually no net change — but the answer is 0% net change.

  3. If the pattern is 3, 6, 12, 24, what comes next?

    Answer: 48

    Each term doubles the previous one, so 24 × 2 = 48.

  4. Tom is taller than Sam. Sam is taller than Raj. Who is the shortest?

    Answer: Raj

    Tom > Sam > Raj, so Raj is shortest.

  5. Which word does NOT belong: Apple, Orange, Carrot, Grape?

    Answer: Carrot

    Carrot is a vegetable; the others are all fruits.

  6. If A → B and B → C, which of the following must be true?

    Answer: A → C

    Transitivity: if A implies B and B implies C, then A implies C.

  7. A clock shows 3:15. What is the angle between the hour and minute hands?

    Answer: 7.5°

    At 3:15, the minute hand is at 90° and the hour hand has moved to 97.5°, giving a difference of 7.5°.
