My car has several faults, each of which is caused by one single action. When I turn on the engine, open the door and close the sunroof, there is a clank and a bang. When I open the door, wind down the window and change gear, there is a twang and a rattle. When I close the sunroof, open the glove compartment and change gear, there is a twang and a clank.
If I open the door, turn on the engine and open the glove compartment, what will I hear?
 a twang
 a clank and a bang
 a bang
 a bang and a rattle
 nothing


C. a bang
Stupid question.
I guess it is “a clank and a bang”
Out of GMAT portion!!
It is logical reasoning and not CR question…
yes i do agree its out of scope in GMAT.
The answer is A Bang
the ans is B ie a clank and a bang
useless question…that sort wud never appear in a GMAT exam..
Ans: Nothing…
Statement 1 ==> turn on engine + open door + close sunroof = clank + bang
Statement 2 ==> wind down window + open door + change gear = twang + rattle
Statement 3 ==> open glove compartment + close sunroof + change gear = twang + clank
Combining statement 1 and 2 ===> close sunroof = clank
Combining statement 2 and 3 ===> change gear = twang
Therefore turn on engine + open door + open glove compartment = bang (choice c)
I seriously doubt Will such questions be asked ??
However, Bang must be the answer
E nothing
the answer will be (D)
Hint:1.open the door=tang+rattle
2.turn on the engine=clank+bang
3.glow compartment=tang+clank
while we cancel the common words then we get the bang and a rattle (D)
It will be a twang
E
Its C: A BANG!
And whoever says its out of GMAT (CR), is stupid!
Nice question!
E – Nothing
it’s a bang, remind the one-to-one relationship between actions and consequences..very funny anyway
Ans : C (bang)
The answer is C. a bang.
E = Engine
D = Door
S = Sunroof
W = Window
G = Gear
GC = Glove Compartment
C = Clank
B = Bang
T = Twang
R = Rattle
E + D + S –> C + B
D + W + G –> T + R
S + GC + G –> T + C
Since S is the only common “cause” for the C “effect,” S –> C
Since G is the only common “cause” for the T “effect,” G –> T
Since D is associated with no common “effect”, D –> nothing
Since S –> C, and D –> nothing, E –> B
Since G –> C, and D –> nothing, W –> R
Since S –> C, and G –> T, GC –> nothing.
Therefore D + E + GC –> B, as
D –> nothing
E –> B
GC –> nothing
OUT OF SCOPE OF THE GMAT
