The Correct Option is A, B, C
Solution and Explanation
To solve this logical reasoning problem, we must arrange the days based on the given conditions. Let's break down the statements:
- Sundays are longer than Mondays: Sunday > Monday
- Mondays are shorter than Fridays: Monday < Friday
- Wednesdays are shorter than Saturdays, and Saturdays are shorter than Sundays: Wednesday < Saturday < Sunday
- Thursdays are shorter than Saturdays: Thursday < Saturday
- Tuesdays are longer than Saturdays: Tuesday > Saturday
- Wednesdays and Thursdays are both longer than Fridays: Wednesday, Thursday > Friday
Based on these statements, the arrangement is:
- Sunday is longer than Saturday, which is shorter than Tuesday. Therefore, Tuesday could be the longest.
- Monday is shorter than Friday and both Wednesday and Thursday are longer than Friday. Thus, Monday is the shortest.
- Both Wednesday and Thursday are longer than Friday and Thursday is shorter than Saturday, hence Wednesday could be as long as Thursday.
Evaluating the options:
- Wednesdays could be as long as Thursdays: True, as both are longer than Fridays.
- Tuesdays could be the longest days of the week: True, as Tuesday is longer than Saturday and no conditions state any day longer than Tuesday.
- Mondays are the shortest days of the week: True, as Monday is shorter than Friday and both Wednesday and Thursday are longer than Friday.
- Fridays could be as long as Sundays: False, since Sunday is always longer than Monday, which is longer than Friday.

- During a long-distance sea voyage, without the Captain realising, steering of the ship started malfunctioning in the following manner. When the Captain was trying to turn the ship 60 degrees to the left, ship was turning 30 degrees to the right. When the Captain was trying to turn the ship 90 degrees to the left, ship was turning 90 degrees to the right. When the Captain was trying to turn the ship 45 degrees to the right, ship
was turning 30 degrees to the left. When the Captain was trying to turn the ship 90 degrees to the right, ship was turning 45 degrees to the left.
Before the malfunction, ship was going in North-East direction. After the malfunction started, without realising the problem, the Captain tried to turn 90 degrees to the left, then 90 degrees to the right, then 45 degrees to the right and finally 60 degrees to the left. Find the current direction of the ship.- UCEED - 2024
