ICET Analytical Ability 2

Question 1

In a coding system, MANGO is coded as NBOHP. How is GRAPE coded?

Accepted Answer

HSBQF

Answer

Each letter is shifted one position forward in the alphabet (M→N, A→B, N→O, G→H, O→P), so GRAPE becomes HSBQF.

Question 2

A is the father of B. C is the sister of B. D is the husband of A's sister. How is D related to C?

Accepted Answer

Uncle

Answer

D is married to A's sister, making D the uncle of A's children; C is A's child, so D is C's uncle.

Question 3

Find the missing number: 3, 6, 11, 18, 27, ?

Accepted Answer

38

Answer

The differences are 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 (odd numbers increasing by 2), so 27 + 11 = 38.

Question 4

Data Sufficiency: Is integer N divisible by 6? Statement 1: N is divisible by 3. Statement 2: N is divisible by 2.

Accepted Answer

Both statements together are sufficient

Answer

N divisible by both 3 and 2 means it is divisible by 6 since gcd(2,3)=1; neither statement alone suffices.

Question 5

Pointing to a photograph, Ravi says, 'She is the daughter of my grandfather's only son.' How is the girl in the photograph related to Ravi?

Accepted Answer

Sister

Answer

Ravi's grandfather's only son is Ravi's father, so the girl is Ravi's father's daughter — his sister.
