“Wheel of Fortune” is a game that involves turning three concentric wheels simultaneously and it is in the form as shown in the figure below. The eight colours are Red (R), White (W), Orange (O), Yellow (Y), Pink (P), Green (G), Blue (B) and Violet (V) but not in the same order.
Note: Each wheel has 8 equal parts with eight different colours in the same circular order. For example, In outermost wheel if white part is to the immediate right of Pink part, Similarly the position of white part is to the immediate right of pink part in the innermost and middle wheel.
Rule of the Game:
All the three wheels are rotated simultaneously. After the wheelshave stopped rotating, if all the three wheels have each colour at the same position; then the player is said to be ‘won the fortune’ or else he lost the game.

(vi) The Violet part in the innermost wheel is to the immediate left of Orange part in the middle wheel.
(vii) The Red part in the innermost wheel, the pink part in the middle wheel and the yellow part in the outermost wheel were at the same position.
(viii) Any coloured part in one wheel is neither to the immediate right or left of the same coloured part in another wheel.
(ix) The Green part in one of the wheels is at Position 1.
(x) The white part in the middle wheel is to the immediate right of Yellow part in the outermost wheel.

Answers:
Directions (1-2):
Answer: d)
If a city is an intermediate point along the route, then Joseph has to enter and exit an equal number of times and hence there have to be an even number of roads leading to/from that city. IF any city has an odd number of roads leading to/from it, then the city has to be either the starting point or the ending point (but not the both).
So, from the network of cities given, we could start and end at either Y or T.
(T – U – V – T – S – Q – R – S – X – V – W – X – Y – Q – P – Y)
The route can be vice versa from Y to T.
2) Answer: b)
Other than city U all other cities in the given option has four roads connecting the city.
Directions (3-6):
(i) In the outermost wheel, the blue part is at Position 2.
(ii) In the innermost wheel, the orange part is at Position 4.
(iv) In the middle wheel, the Red part is at Position 6.
(v) The white part in the innermost wheel is to the immediate right of the Blue part in the outermost wheel.
From the statements above, we get;
(vii) The Red part in the innermost wheel, the pink part in the middle wheel and the yellow part in the outermost wheel were at the same position.
(viii) Any coloured part in one wheel is neither to the immediate right or left of the same coloured part in another wheel.
(x) The white part in the middle wheel is to the immediate right of Yellow part in the outermost wheel.
From the above statements we can fix the position of Red part in the inner wheel at either Position 8 or Position 3.
But, as the white part in the middle wheel is to the immediate right of Yellow part in the outermost wheel, we cannot fix the Position of Red part at Position 3.
So, we get
(iii) The Pink part in the middle wheel is to the immediate Right of Green part in the outermost wheel.
(ix) The Green part in one of the wheels is at Position 1.
Note: For example, In outermost wheel if white part is to the immediate right of Pink part, then the position of white part is to the immediate right of pink part in the innermost and middle wheel.
Since, in each wheel the colours were in the same circular order. We can fix the position of all other parts in the wheel. Thus the final arrangement is,
3) Answer: c)
4) Answer: e)
5) Answer: c)
6) Answer: c)
Directions (7-10):
Since, the seats are arranged in grid form with three rows and three columns, the seats were numbered as follows:
(i) Since, Robert drives the van, he occupies the seat numbered 3 having R and Y in his column.
(iii) E, the son of S occupies the seats in the same row as T and Y, who is his only sister.
(iv) Q occupies seat numbered 5 and is in same row as his husband A and is not seated immediately in front of Robert’s son E.
(v) Q, the mother of Robert and his daughter are not seated in the same column.
From the above statement, we can conclude that W is the sister of Robert as already we have concluded S as his wife.
(ii) Robert and his father-in-law are not seated in the same row.
(vi) E and his sister are seated with his maternal grandmother.
From the above statements, we can conclude that T is the mother-in-law of Robert and R is the father-in-law of Robert.
7) Answer: d)
After swapping their positions we get,
So, S sits before T.
8) Answer: d)
After swapping their positions we get,
From this we get only Option (d) as true.
9) Answer: d)
After swapping their positions we get,
Robert is the Son of Q.
