Sample Logical Reasoning CAT Questions
Sample Logical Reasoning CAT Questions- Directions for next 3 questions: Answers the logical reasoning questions based on the following information.
The following steps refer to a certain software programme. The steps given in the code (in simple English language) shows the stages of working of the programme.
Step 0: Start of programme.
Step 1: Select X, where X is a natural number.
Step 2: If X is a prime, go to step 5.
Step 3: If X is an even number, convert X to Y. Y is defined is step 6. Go to step 6.
Step 4: If X is an odd number, convert X to Y. Y is defined in step 7. Go to step 7.
Step 5: Display output as square root to X. Go to step 9.
Step 6: Y is defined as equal to two less than the square of X. Go to step 8.
Step 7: Y is defined as equal to 5 more than the square of X. Go to step 8.
Step 8: Display output as Y.
Step 9: End of programme.

1. c. output displayed can be in decimal only when X is a prime number. Hence, 4.121 is the square root of a prime number which is 17.
2. d. need to check the square of which naturak number is close to 2406.
33 is too small, 47 is a prime number. Hence choice is between 48 and 49. It is actually square of 49 added with 5 which given 2406.
3. b. It will be 4 only as (4)^2 – 2 = 14. We don not consider 3, though (3)^2 + 5 = 14, as 3 is a prime number.

1. C
2. D
3. THe answer must be B i.e 4. beacuse if the input had been 3 then the condition at step 2 would have been satisfied and step 5 and then step 9 would have been executed in that order. therefore the condition of the program checking for 3 as odd would not have been reached. Therefore the answer must be 4 i.e. b

1.c
if output is not belongs to natural number, X is prime
2.d
if o/p is not decimal add 2 to the o/p or subtract 5 from the output,from which case obtain perfect sqrt ,that perfect sqrt is not prime,that is the answer
3.b
use above concept,get 3&4 ,4 is not prime ,there for 4 is answer

The answers are
c 17 – prime (squre root of 17) in step 5.
d 49 – odd number (square of 49 + 5) step 7.
b 4 – even numer (square of 4 – 2) step 6.
