Reasoning Quiz

Directions (Q. 1-4): Study the following information carefully and answer the given questions:
A word and number arrangement machine when given an input line of words and numbers rearranges them following a particular rule in each step. The following is an illustration of input and rearrangement. (All the numbers are two-digit numbers.)
Input: tall 48 13 rise alt 99 76 32 wise jar high 28 56 barn
Step I: 13 tall 48 rise 99 76 32 wise jar high 28 56 barn alt
Step II: 28 13 tall 48 rise 99 76 32 wise jar high 56 alt barn
Step III: 32 28 13 tall 48 rise 99 76 wise jar 56 alt barn high
Step IV: 48 32 28 13 tall rise 99 76 wise 56 alt barn high jar
Step V: 56 48 32 28 13 tall 99 76 wise alt barn high jar rise
Step VI: 76 56 48 32 28 13 99 wise alt barn high jar rise tall
Step VII: 99 76 56 48 32 28 13 alt barn high jar rise tall wise
And Step VII is the last step of the above input, as the desired arrangement is obtained.
As per the rules followed in the above steps, find out in each of the following questions the appropriate step for the given input.
Input: 84 why sit 14 32 not best ink feet 51 27 vain 68 92 (All the numbers are two-digit numbers.)
1. Which step number is the following output?
32 27 14 84 why sit not 51 vain 92 68 feet best ink
1) Step V
2) Step VI
3) Step IV
4) Step III
5) There is no such step.

2. Which word/number would be at 5th position from the right in Step V?
1) 14
2) 92
3) feet
4) best
5) why

3. How many elements (words or numbers) are there between ‘feet’ and ‘32’ as they appear in the last step of the output?
1) One
2) Three
3) Four
4) Five
5) Seven

4. Which of the following represents the position of ‘why’ in the fourth step?
1) Eighth from the left
2) Fifth from the right
3) Sixth from the left
4) Fifth from the left
5) Seventh from the left

Answer-
(1-4): The machine rearranges words and numbers in such a way that numbers are arranged from left side with the smallest number coming first and move subsequently so that in the last step numbers are arranged in descending order. While the words are arranged from right side as they appear in English alphabetical order.
Input: 84 why sit 14 32 not best ink feet 51 27 vain 68 92
Step I: 14 84 why sit 32 not ink feet 51 27 vain 68 92 best
Step II: 27 14 84 why sit 32 not ink 51 vain 68 92 best feet
Step III: 32 27 14 84 why sit not 51 vain 68 92 best feet ink
Step IV: 51 32 27 14 84 why sit vain 68 92 best feet ink not
Step V: 68 51 32 27 14 84 why vain 92 best feet ink not sit
Step VI: 84 68 51 32 27 14 why 92 best feet ink not sit vain
Step VII: 92 68 84 51 32 27 14 best feet ink not sit vain why
1. -5
2. -4
3. -2; 27, 14 and best
4. -3; Step IV: 51 32 27 14 84 why sit vain 68 92 best feet ink not The position of ‘why’ in this step is sixth from the left end.
