Input: tyre 71 toughen 59 tip 82 13 thanks to 68 table 46

If in the last step, '1' is added to each of the odd numbers and '2' is subtracted from each of the even numbers, then how many numbers multiple of '4' will be formed?

Correct Answer: (2) Three
Solution:

After careful analysis of the given input and various steps of rearrangement it is evident that in each step two elements (one word and one number) are rearranged. In the first step the highest number moves to the extreme left position and its digits are interchanged while the word which contains least number of letters, moves to the extreme right position. In the second step, the second highest number moves to the extreme left position and its digits are interchanged while the word which contains the second lowest number of letters moves to the extreme right position. The same procedure is continued till all the numbers and words get rearranged following the rule mentioned above.
Input : tyre 71 toughen 59 tip 82 13 thanks to 68 table 46
Step I : 28 tyre 71 toughen 59 tip 13 thanks 68 table 46 to
Step II : 17 28 tyre toughen 59 13 thanks 68 table 46 to tip
Step III : 86 17 28 toughen 59 13 thanks table 46 to tip tyre
Step IV : 95 86 17 28 toughen 13 thanks 46 to tip tyre table
Step V : 64 95 86 17 28 toughen 13 to tip tyre table thanks
Step VI : 31 64 95 86 17 28 to tip tyre table thanks toughen
31 + 1 = 32; 64 - 2 = 62;
95 + 1 = 96; 86 - 2 = 84;
17 + 1 = 18; 28 - 2 = 26;
The numbers 32, 84 and 96 are multiples of 4.

Which of the following combinations represents the third and the ninth element in second last step of the given input from the left end?

Correct Answer: (4) '86' and 'tip'
Solution:

After careful analysis of the given input and various steps of rearrangement it is evident that in each step two elements (one word and one number) are rearranged. In the first step the highest number moves to the extreme left position and its digits are interchanged while the word which contains least number of letters, moves to the extreme right position. In the second step, the second highest number moves to the extreme left position and its digits are interchanged while the word which contains the second lowest number of letters moves to the extreme right position. The same procedure is continued till all the numbers and words get rearranged following the rule mentioned above.
