मानसिक क्षमता — Advanced Puzzles र Decision Making

यस नोटमा complex seating arrangements, scheduling, conditional logic र decision-based problems समेटिएका छन्।

Complex Arrangements — Step-by-Step

Floor Puzzle Example

7 floors: A, B, C, D, E, F, G
Clue 1: A lives above B
Clue 2: C is on floor 3
Clue 3: D र E बीच 2 floors छन्
→ Grid बनाउनुस्: Floor 7 to 1, fill definite first (C=3), अनि constraint propagation

Approach: elimination method — जुन cell मा 1 option मात्र छ त्यो first fill गर्नुस्

Conditional Logic

If-Then Chains

Statement Contrapositive
If P then Q If not Q then not P
P only if Q If not Q then not P
P unless Q If not Q then P
Remember: Contrapositive सधैं logically equivalent हुन्छ।

Number Patterns — Advanced

Pattern Example Rule
Fibonacci 1,1,2,3,5,8,13 Tₙ = Tₙ₋₁ + Tₙ₋₂
Geometric 2,6,18,54 ×3 each time
Perfect squares 1,4,9,16,25
Triangular 1,3,6,10,15 n(n+1)/2
Prime 2,3,5,7,11,13 No factor except 1 and itself
Quick Recall:
• Fibonacci: each term = sum of previous two
• Triangular numbers: n(n+1)/2
• Contrapositive of “If P then Q” = “If ¬Q then ¬P”
• Floor puzzle: definite clues anchor, constraint propagation fills rest
