Home Depot Reasoning 1

Question 1

Lisa is older than Sidney. Olivia is older than Lisa and Rose. Hannah is not the youngest of the group. Who is the youngest?

Accepted Answer

Olivia

Answer

Based on the provided information, the statement 'Olivia is older than Lisa and Rose' directly contradicts the possibility of Olivia being the youngest person in the group. Given this premise, Olivia is actually established as the oldest among Lisa, Sidney, and Rose. Therefore, a logical explanation for Olivia being the youngest cannot be derived from the information presented in the question.

Question 2

Determine the word that needs to be spelled correctly.

Accepted Answer

Anatema

Answer

The question asks to identify the misspelled word among the options. 'Phenomenon,' 'Onomatopoeia,' and 'Worcestershire' are all spelled correctly. 'Anatema' is a misspelling of 'Anathema,' which refers to a formal curse or a person or thing detested, making it the word that needs to be spelled correctly.

Question 3

Ruth wants to buy a bag, but her $33 budget only covers 20% of that cost. What is the price of the bag?

Accepted Answer

$165

Answer

Ruth's $33 budget covers 20% of the bag's total cost. To find the full price, you can set up the equation: 0.20 multiplied by the Total Price equals $33. Dividing $33 by 0.20 isolates the Total Price. Therefore, $33 / 0.20 = $165.

Question 4

Which number comes next in the series: 7, 14, 42, 168, 840, ?

Accepted Answer

5,040

Answer

This is a multiplication series where each number is multiplied by an increasing integer. The pattern is: 7 * 2 = 14, 14 * 3 = 42, 42 * 4 = 168, and 168 * 5 = 840. Following this pattern, the next step is to multiply 840 by 6. Therefore, 840 * 6 = 5,040.

Question 5

Determine the missing value:

Accepted Answer

0

Answer

Without the visual context of the puzzle, it is impossible to explain the specific pattern or calculation that leads to '0' as the missing value. Typically, such problems involve identifying a numerical sequence, a mathematical operation across rows/columns, or a logical relationship between elements in a diagram to determine the correct number.
