Logical Reasoning(IBPS CL) Puzzle Test

Direction: Read the given information and answer the following questions:

21 persons work in bank at different post. The posts are in decreasing order i.e., Chairman, GM, Manager, AM, PO and Clerk. It is known that in any post the number of persons posted were one more than the number of persons posted in the immediate senior post.

F, Q and R work at same post and were junior to Z. A is just junior to W but just senior to R. P, T and Y work at same post but not with A. V is junior to Z but senior to J. K and O work at same post but does not work as a clerk. S does not work along with U and P. D is senior to M and junior to S. U and B work at same place.

Explanation:

Let’s get right into it. Here’s how we crack this puzzle:

- The posts, in order, are Chairman > GM > Manager > AM > PO > Clerk.

- Each lower post has one more person than the previous. Since there are 21 people, let’s distribute:

- Let’s call the number at Chairman x.

- Then GM: x+1, Manager: x+2, AM: x+3, PO: x+4, Clerk: x+5.

- Total: x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4) + (x+5) = 6x+15 = 21 ? x=1

Here’s how it works out:

- Chairman: 1 person

- GM: 2 people

- Manager: 3 people

- AM: 4 people

- PO: 5 people

- Clerk: 6 people

Now, looking at the direct statements:

- “C and G work at same post and were senior to E.” So C and G are together and senior to Manager E.

- “E works as a manager and is just senior to Z.” This means Z is AM or lower.

- None of the options except G share a post with C. The others (E, W, Z, A) are not mentioned as paired with C, and G is literally named as working at the same post as C.

So, the punchline:

- The one at the same post with C is G.

Let’s mark it up:

Option 5: G

Short summary of why:

- The structure gives us numbers per post and name clues.

- C and G are linked specifically at the same post, and none of the others are. So, option 5 is your match.

You worked it out correctly! Nice deduction.
