Sequential Output Tracing Questions and Answers

Answer: A

Answer: E

Input :
Over Go For through at one
Step I
at Over Go For through one
Step II
at For Over Go through one
Step III
at For Go Over through one
Step IV
at For Go one Over through
Since all the words in the given input have been arranged alphabetically, until step IV so it is the last step.

Answer: B

Start constructing the sequence until you see the pattern
1...5...(average of 1 and 5 = 3)...(average of 1, 5, and 3 = 3)...(average of 1,5,3 and 3 = 3)
now you can see that all subsequent terms will be 3

Answer: C

In the given arrangement the words have been arranged alphabetically in a sequence, altering the position of only one word in each step.

Input :
story For around on was He at
Step I :
around story For on was He at
Step II :
around at story For on was He
Step ||| :
around at For story on was He
Step IV :
around at For He story on was
 

Answer: C

Answer: D

Input : Together over series on feast the so
Step I: feast Together over series on the so
Step II: feast on Together over series the so
Step III: feast on over Together series the so
Step IV: feast on over series Together the so 
Step V: feast on over series so Together the
Step VI: feast on over series so the Together
Clearly step VI is the last step and step V is the last but one (second last)

Answer: B

Since all the numbers in the given input have been arranged in descending order until step II, so it is the last step.

Answer: C

Correct answer: C is to the immediate right of B

The arrangement these questions were set against is not reproduced with the item as it now stands. What can be said is that this statement is the one the information fixes completely, while the other three are not determined - they may hold in some arrangements consistent with the clues and not in others, and “definitely true” requires that a statement hold in every arrangement the clues permit. The companion question in this set is keyed to the same relation, B followed immediately by C.

Answer: D

Correct answer: 762

Every term is 4 more than the last and the first is \( -20 \), so every term is a multiple of 4. Testing the options: \( 220 = 4\times55 \), \( 440 = 4\times110 \) and \( 668 = 4\times167 \) all qualify, but \( 762 = 4\times190.5 \) does not. It is even, which is what makes it look plausible, but divisibility by 4 is the test - and the last two digits, 62, are not a multiple of 4.

Answer: E

Correct answer: None of these

The machine sorts alphabetically one position at a time and passes over any word already correctly placed. The six words order as and, Do, on, pet, that, to, so at Step II the first two positions hold “and Do” and the remaining four keep their input order - here “pet to on that”. Only the third option has that tail, but from it Step I alone already yields the given line, and Step II would go on to place “on” third. Since no option can be the input, the answer is none of these.
