  1. A is the mother of B. B is the sister of C. C is the father of D. How is A related to D?

    Answer: Grandmother

    A is B's mother; since B is C's sister, A is also C's mother; since C is D's father, A is D's grandmother.

  2. In a line of cadets, Cadet Morgan is 7th from the front and 11th from the rear. How many cadets are in the line?

    Answer: 17

    Total = position from front + position from rear − 1 = 7 + 11 − 1 = 17.

  3. PARCHED is to THIRSTY as FAMISHED is to ?

    Answer: Hungry

    Just as 'parched' is an extreme form of 'thirsty,' 'famished' is an extreme form of 'hungry.'

  4. If MARCH is coded as 13-1-18-3-8, what is the code for APRIL?

    Answer: 1-16-18-9-12

    Each letter is its alphabetical position: A=1, P=16, R=18, I=9, L=12, giving 1-16-18-9-12.

  5. Premises: 'No coward can be a good officer. All good officers are respected.' Does it follow that 'No coward is respected'?

    Answer: No, a coward may still be respected for other reasons

    The premises only establish that good officers are respected, not that being a good officer is the only path to respect; a coward could earn respect through other means.

  6. A reconnaissance team travels 8 km north, then 6 km east. What is the shortest straight-line distance back to their starting point?

    Answer: 10 km

    Using the Pythagorean theorem: √(8² + 6²) = √(64 + 36) = √100 = 10 km.

  7. What number is missing in the series: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, ?, 21

    Answer: 13

    This is the Fibonacci sequence where each number equals the sum of the two preceding numbers: 5 + 8 = 13.
