Sample LTTS questions with solutions

These are practice-style questions aligned to patterns students report for LTTS drives around 2025. They are not leaked live papers. Work them timed, then read the solutions only after you have an answer.

Quantitative aptitude (2025)

Q1: Average after replace

Problem: The average of five numbers is 20. One number 30 is replaced by 10. What is the new average?

Solution: Old sum = 5 × 20 = 100. New sum = 100 − 30 + 10 = 80. New average = 80 / 5 = 16.

Answer: 16

Q2: Series n(n+1)

Problem: Find the next term: 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ?

Solution: Pattern: 1×2, 2×3, 3×4, 4×5, 5×6, 6×7. Next = 6 × 7 = 42.

Answer: 42

Q3: Deck probability

Problem: What is the probability of drawing an ace from a standard 52-card deck?

Solution: There are 4 aces in 52 cards. Probability = 4/52 = 1/13.

Answer: 1/13

Q4: Net percent change

Problem: A number is increased by 20% and then decreased by 20%. What is the net percentage change?

Solution: Start with 100 → 120 → 96. Net change = 4% decrease. Formula: successive +a then −a gives −(a²/100)% = −4%.

Answer: 4% decrease

Q5: Consumption cut

Problem: If the price of an item rises by 25%, by what percent should consumption fall so that expenditure stays the same?

Solution: Required reduction = r/(100+r) × 100 with r = 25. = 25/125 × 100 = 20%.

Answer: 20%

Q6: Compound mark-discount

Problem: An article is marked 40% above cost and sold after a 10% discount. Find the profit percent.

Solution: SP = CP × 1.4 × 0.9 = 1.26 CP. Profit = 26%.

Answer: 26%

Q7: Loss to profit shift

Problem: An article sold at 10% loss would give 5% profit if sold for ₹60 more. Find the cost price.

Solution: 0.9P + 60 = 1.05P 60 = 0.15P P = 60 / 0.15 = ₹400.

Answer: ₹400

Q8: Worker scaling

Problem: Eight workers finish a job in 10 days. How many days will 10 workers take for the same job (same pace)?

Solution: Total man-days = 8 × 10 = 80. Days for 10 workers = 80 / 10 = 8 days.

Answer: 8 days

Logical reasoning (2025)

Q1: Syllogism

Problem: Statements: All engineers are graduates. Some graduates are managers. Conclusion: Some engineers are managers. Does it follow?

Solution: The ‘some graduates’ who are managers need not overlap with the engineers. The conclusion does not follow necessarily.

Answer: Does not follow

Q2: Direction turn

Problem: A person walks 5 km north, then 3 km east, then 5 km south. How far is he from the start, and in which direction?

Solution: North 5 and south 5 cancel. He is 3 km east of the start.

Answer: 3 km east

Q3: Series multiply

Problem: Find the next number: 3, 9, 27, 81, ?

Solution: Each term is multiplied by 3. Next = 81 × 3 = 243.

Answer: 243

Q4: Seating hint

Problem: Five friends sit in a row. A is to the left of B but right of C. D is to the right of B and left of E. Who is in the middle?

Solution: Order from left to right: C, A, B, D, E. The middle seat is B.

Answer: B

Coding practice (2025)

Coding Q1: Linked list cycle

Problem: Given the head of a linked list, return true if there is a cycle and false otherwise.

Approach: Floyd’s tortoise and hare: move one pointer one step and another two steps. If they meet, a cycle exists. If the fast pointer hits null, there is no cycle.

Complexity: O(n) time, O(1) space

LTTS tip: Restate the problem, sketch a brute-force idea, then tighten it. Call out edge cases (empty input, single element, overflow) before you write code.

Coding Q2: Binary tree level order

Problem: Given the root of a binary tree, return the level-order traversal (breadth-first) as a list of levels.

Approach: Use a queue. For each level, drain the current queue size, collect values, and enqueue children for the next level.

Complexity: O(n) time, O(n) space

LTTS tip: Restate the problem, sketch a brute-force idea, then tighten it. Call out edge cases (empty input, single element, overflow) before you write code.

Coding Q3: Coin change (min coins)

Problem: Given coin denominations and an amount, return the fewest coins needed to make that amount, or -1 if it is impossible.

Approach: Unbounded knapsack DP: let dp[x] be the minimum coins for amount x. For each coin, update dp[c..amount]. Initialize dp[0] = 0 and the rest to a large sentinel.

Complexity: O(amount × coins)

LTTS tip: Restate the problem, sketch a brute-force idea, then tighten it. Call out edge cases (empty input, single element, overflow) before you write code.

Coding Q4: Binary search

Problem: Given a sorted array of distinct integers and a target, return the index of target or -1 if missing.

Approach: Maintain lo/hi. Compare mid with target and shrink the half that cannot contain it. Careful with overflow-free mid and empty arrays.

Complexity: O(log n) time

LTTS tip: Restate the problem, sketch a brute-force idea, then tighten it. Call out edge cases (empty input, single element, overflow) before you write code.

Coding Q5: Move zeros

Problem: Move all zeros in an array to the end while keeping the relative order of non-zero elements.

Approach: Two pointers: write non-zeros toward the front, then fill the remainder with zeros. Or swap zeros as you scan.

Complexity: O(n) time, O(1) space

LTTS tip: Restate the problem, sketch a brute-force idea, then tighten it. Call out edge cases (empty input, single element, overflow) before you write code.

Coding Q6: Rotate array

Problem: Rotate an array to the right by k steps. Example: [1,2,3,4,5,6,7], k = 3 → [5,6,7,1,2,3,4].

Approach: Normalize k %= n. Reverse the whole array, reverse the first k elements, then reverse the rest. That yields the rotation in place.

Complexity: O(n) time, O(1) space

LTTS tip: Restate the problem, sketch a brute-force idea, then tighten it. Call out edge cases (empty input, single element, overflow) before you write code.

Coding Q7: First unique character

Problem: Find the first non-repeating character in a string and return its index, or -1 if none exists.

Approach: Count frequencies in one pass (hash map or array of 26 for lowercase). Second pass returns the first index with count 1.

Complexity: O(n) time

LTTS tip: Restate the problem, sketch a brute-force idea, then tighten it. Call out edge cases (empty input, single element, overflow) before you write code.

Coding Q8: Stack with min

Problem: Design a stack that supports push, pop, top, and getMin in average O(1) time.

Approach: Keep a parallel min-stack (or store pairs). When pushing, also push the new minimum. When popping, pop both stacks.

Complexity: O(1) per operation amortized

LTTS tip: Restate the problem, sketch a brute-force idea, then tighten it. Call out edge cases (empty input, single element, overflow) before you write code.

Deep prep notes for LTTS

How the LTTS Online Assessment usually feels

Students usually say the first round is time-tight - easy marks vanish if you sit too long on one hard question. For LTTS, skim the paper in a couple of minutes, mark what you can finish cleanly, and protect accuracy. Languages people commonly use: C, C++, Java, Python.

Topic weight hints

Area Why it matters at LTTS
Aptitude What usually helps you clear the first round
Core CS (OOPs / DBMS / OS) Technical interview depth
Engineering R&D Services awareness Helps in managerial / HR conversations
Communication Explain your approach clearly; keep a few real examples ready for HR
