  1. All mammals are warm-blooded. A whale is a mammal. Therefore:

    Answer: Whales are warm-blooded

    Using deductive reasoning: all mammals are warm-blooded, and whales are mammals, so whales must be warm-blooded.

  2. If today is Wednesday, what day will it be in 10 days?

    Answer: Saturday

    10 days after Wednesday: 10 mod 7 = 3, so three days after Wednesday is Saturday.

  3. In a sequence 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, what is the next number?

    Answer: 37

    The differences are 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 — increasing odd numbers — so add 11 to 26 to get 37.

  4. Maria is taller than Jake. Jake is taller than Sam. Who is the shortest?

    Answer: Sam

    Maria > Jake > Sam, so Sam is the shortest in this chain.

  5. If HOUSE is coded as IPVTF, how is DOOR coded?

    Answer: EPPS

    Each letter is shifted one position forward in the alphabet: D→E, O→P, O→P, R→S = EPPS.

  6. A store sells apples for $2 each and oranges for $3 each. If Tom spends exactly $12 on 5 pieces of fruit, how many apples did he buy?

    Answer: 3

    Let a = apples, o = oranges: a + o = 5 and 2a + 3o = 12; solving gives a = 3, o = 2.
