What to Focus On

  • Three main types: reasoning-based, replacement algorithm, and arithmetic operations
  • Reasoning-based questions follow logical patterns like alphabetical or numerical order
  • Replacement algorithms involve fixed positional shifts

  • Always start by analyzing the final step for patterns
  • Look for logical arrangements like alphabetical or numerical order
  • If no pattern exists, search for positional replacement rules

  • Descending order is the most common numerical pattern
  • Each step typically positions one number correctly
  • Sum of digits can be an alternative arrangement criterion

Common Mistakes to Avoid

You can always work backwards from any given step to find the input or previous steps

The last step always contains all elements in perfect ascending or descending order

In each step, multiple elements can be moved simultaneously
