1. Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the sixth number is related to the fifth number. [S.S.C CGL 08/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

76 : 11 :: 88 : ? :: 68 : 9

Correct Answer: (b) 14
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(n × 4 : n - 8)

(76 : 11) ⇒ (19 × 4 : 19 - 8)

(68 : 9) ⇒ (17 × 4 : 17 - 8)

Similarly,

(88 : 14) ⇒ (22 × 4 : 22 - 8)

Hence, "14" is the correct answer.

2. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [S.S.C CGL 08/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

(NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)

(60, 5, 6)

(48, 8, 3)

Correct Answer: (c) (24, 4, 3)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → {(b × c) × 2} = a

(60, 5, 6) → {(5 × 6) × 2} = 60

(48, 8, 3) → {(8 × 3) × 2} = 48

Similarly,

(24, 4, 3) → {(4 × 3) × 2} = 24

Hence, "(24, 4, 3)" is the correct answer.

3. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CGL 08/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

(NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)

(144, 9, 3)

(225, 7, 8)

Correct Answer: (b) (64, 5, 3)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → (b + c)² = a

(144, 9, 3) → (9 + 3)² = 144

(225, 7, 8) → (7 + 8)² = 225

Similarly,

(64, 5, 3) → (5 + 3)² = 64

Hence, "(64, 5, 3)" is the correct answer.

4. Select the option that is related to the third word in the same way as the second word is related to the first word. [S.S.C CGL 08/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

(The words must be considered as meaningful English words and must not be related to each other based on the number of letters/number of consonants/vowels in the word.)

Commence : Begin :: Doctrine : ?

Correct Answer: (a) Belief
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

As Commence is the Synonym of Begin

In the same way,

Doctrine is the synonym of Belief.

Hence, "Belief" is the correct answer.

5. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CGL 08/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

(NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)

(34, 23, 12)

(71, 37, 3)

Correct Answer: (c) (19, 55, 91)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → {(a + c) ÷ 2} = b

(34, 23, 12) → {(34 + 12) ÷ 2} ⇒ 46 ÷ 2 = 23

(71, 37, 3) → {(71 + 3) ÷ 2} ⇒ 74 ÷ 2 = 37

Similarly,

(19, 55, 91) → {(19 + 91) ÷ 2} ⇒ 110 ÷ 2 = 55

Hence, "(19, 55, 91)" is the correct answer.

6. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [S.S.C CGL 08/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

(NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)

(2, 4, 18)

(1, 9, 50)

Correct Answer: (a) (3, 5, 32)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → {(a + b)² ÷ 2} = c

(2, 4, 18) → {(2 + 4)² ÷ 2} ⇒ 6² ÷ 2 ⇒ 36 ÷ 2 = 18

(1, 9, 50) → {(1 + 9)² ÷ 2} ⇒ 10² ÷ 2 ⇒ 100 ÷ 2 = 50

Similarly,

(3, 5, 32) → {(3 + 5)² ÷ 2} ⇒ 8² ÷ 2 ⇒ 64 ÷ 2 = 32

Hence, "(3, 5, 32)" is the correct answer.

7. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CGL 08/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

(NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)

(5, 35, 7)

(8, 32, 4)

Correct Answer: (b) (3, 27, 9)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → a × c = b

(5, 35, 7) → 5 × 7 = 35

(8, 32, 4) → 8 × 4 = 32

Similarly,

(3, 27, 9) → 3 × 9 = 27

Hence, "(3, 27, 9)" is the correct answer.

8. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CGL 08/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

(NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)

(99, 199, 1199)

(15, 115, 1115)

Correct Answer: (b) (33, 133, 1133)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → a + 100 = b  & b + 1000 = c

(99, 199, 1199) → 99 + 100 = 199 & 199 + 1000 = 1199

(15, 115, 1115) → 15 + 100 = 115 & 115 + 1000 = 1115

Similarly,

(33, 133, 1133) → 33 + 100 = 133 & 133 + 1000 = 1133

Hence, "(33, 133, 1133)" is the correct answer.

9. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CGL 09/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

(NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)

(19, 23, 4)

(13, 27, 14)

Correct Answer: (c) (25, 27, 2)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → a + c = b

(19, 23, 4) → 19 + 4 = 23

(13, 27, 14) → 13 + 14 = 27

Similarly,

(25, 27, 2) → 25 + 2 = 27

Hence, "(25, 27, 2)" is the correct answer.

10. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following set. [S.S.C CGL 09/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

(NOTE : Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)

(182, 170, 97)

(156, 128, 92)

Correct Answer: (d) (138, 130, 73)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → {(a - c) × 2} = b

(182, 170, 97) → {(182 - 97) × 2} ⇒ 85 × 2 = 170

(156, 128, 92) → {(156 - 92) × 2} ⇒ 64 × 2 = 128

Similarly,

(138, 130, 73) → {(138 - 73) × 2} ⇒ 65 × 2 = 130

Hence, "(138, 130, 73)" is the correct answer.
