31. Select the option that is related to the third term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term and the sixth term is related to the fifth term. [Group-D 07/10/2022 (Morning)]

57 : 39 :: 82 : ? : 89 : 71

Correct Answer: (b) 64
Solution:

57 : 39  = 57 - 39 = 18
89 : 71 = 89 - 71 = 18
Similarly,
82 : ? = 82 - ? = 18
So, ? = 64

32. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [Group-D 07/10/2022 (Morning)]

(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)
(32, 166, 19)
(49, 230, 17)

Correct Answer: (a) (36, 186, 21)
Solution:

(32, 166, 19) = (32 +19) x 3 + (32-19)
= 166
(49, 230, 17) = (49 +17) × 3+ (49-17)
= 230
Similarly,
(36, 186, 21) = (36 +21) x 3 + (36-21)
= 186

33. In the given letter-cluster pairs, the first letter-cluster is related to the second letter-cluster following a certain logic. Study the given pairs carefully, and from the given options, select the pair that follows the same logic. [Group-D 07/10/2022 (Morning)]

YRF : UNB
GLS : CHO

Correct Answer: (c) MPL: ILH
Solution:

34. Select the option that is related to the third term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term and the sixth term is related to the fifth term. [Group-D 07/10/2022 (Afternoon)]

77 : 28 : 89 : ? :: 134 : 47

Correct Answer: (c) 32
Solution:

77 : 28 :: 89 : ? : 134 : 47
77 : 28 = (77 + 7) ÷ 3 = 28
134 : 47 = (134 + 7) ÷ 3 = 47
Similarly,
89 : ? = (89 + 7) ÷ 3 = 32

35. In the given letter-cluster pairs, the first letter-cluster is related to the second letter-cluster following a certain logic. Study the given pairs carefully, and from the given options, select the pair that follows the same logic. [Group-D 07/10/2022 (Afternoon)]

GKV : IMX
PLR : RNT

Correct Answer: (d) JWO : LYQ
Solution:

GKV : IMX
G + 2 = 1, K + 2 = M, V + 2 = X
PLR : RNT
P + 2 = R, L + 2 = N, R + 2 = T
Similarly,
JWO : LYQ
J + 2 = L, W + 2 = Y, 0 + 2 = Q

36. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [Group-D 07/10/2022 (Evening)]

(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)
(3,261, 29)
(5, 360, 24)

Correct Answer: (c) (7, 231, 11)
Solution:

(3,261, 29) = (3 x 29) × 3 = 261
(5, 360, 24) = (5 x 24) × 3 = 360
Similarly,
(7, 231, 11) = (7 x 11) × 3 = 231

37. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [Group-D 07/10/2022 (Evening)]

(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)
(9, 25, 49)
(121, 169, 225)

Correct Answer: (c) (81, 121, 169)
Solution:

38. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [Group-D 11/10/2022 (Morning)]

(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.
(15,405, 9)
(13, 273, 7)

Correct Answer: (a) (11,165,5)
Solution:

(15, 405, 9) = (15 × 9) × 3 = 405
(13, 273, 7) = (13 × 7) × 3 = 273
Similarly,
(11, 165, 5) = (11 × 5) × 3 = 165

39. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [Group-D 11/10/2022 (Morning)]

(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)
(2, 6, 22)
(4, 13, 47)

Correct Answer: (d) (9, 5, 33)
Solution:

(2, 6, 22) = (2+6) x 3 - 2 (First number)
= 22
(4, 13, 47) = (4 +13) × 3 - 4 (First number) = 47
Similarly,
(9, 5, 33) = (9+ 5) x 3 - 9 (First letter) = 33

40. Select the option that is related to the third term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term and the sixth term is related to the fifth term. [Group-D 11/10/2022 (Afternoon)]

6 : 27 : 8 : ? :: 12 : 54

Correct Answer: (d) 36
Solution:

6 : 27 = (6 × 9) ÷ 2 = 27
12 : 54 = (12 × 9) ÷ 2 = 54
Similarly,
8 : ?= (8 x 9) ÷ 2 = 36
