LEAB Reasoning and Information Ordering 3

Question 1

A patrol log shows: Officer A worked Monday and Thursday; Officer B worked Tuesday and Friday; Officer C worked Wednesday and Saturday. A crime occurred on a day when only one officer was on duty. Which day could that NOT be?

Accepted Answer

Sunday

Answer

Sunday is not listed as a work day for any officer, so no officer was on duty, meaning it cannot be the day only one officer was present.

Question 2

Four witnesses give statements about a suspect: Witness 1 says the jacket was blue; Witness 2 says the jacket was black; Witness 3 says the jacket was dark colored; Witness 4 says the jacket was bright red. Which two witnesses' statements are most compatible?

Accepted Answer

Witnesses 2 and 3

Answer

Black is a dark color, so Witnesses 2 and 3 are most compatible because black jacket is consistent with a dark-colored jacket.

Question 3

An officer is told: 'If the suspect has a prior record, increase the threat level. If threat level is high, call for backup.' The suspect has a prior record. What must the officer do?

Accepted Answer

Both increase threat level and call for backup

Answer

A prior record triggers increased threat level, which in turn triggers the requirement to call for backup — both outcomes follow by chain logic.

Question 4

A crime report uses a code system: Code 1 = non-emergency, Code 2 = urgent, Code 3 = emergency. A call is downgraded from Code 3 to Code 2. What can be concluded?

Accepted Answer

The situation is still urgent but no longer an emergency

Answer

Downgrading from Code 3 to Code 2 means the emergency condition is resolved but urgency remains, as Code 2 still signifies an urgent response.

Question 5

An officer is tracking a fleeing vehicle that travels 3 blocks north, 2 blocks east, 3 blocks south, then 2 blocks west. Where is the vehicle relative to where it started?

Accepted Answer

Back at the starting point

Answer

Three blocks north canceled by three blocks south and two blocks east canceled by two blocks west returns the vehicle to its exact starting point.
