21. 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 09/12/2022 (4th Shift)]

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

(4, 21, 33)

(10, 111, 141)

Correct Answer: (b) (25, 53, 128)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → {(a × 3) + b} = ç

(4, 21, 33) → (4 × 3 + 21) = 33

(10, 111, 141) → (10 × 3 + 111) = 141

Similarly,

(25, 53, 128) → (25 × 3 + 53) = 128

Hence, "(25, 53, 128)" is the correct answer.

22. Select the option that is related to the fifth number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the fourth number is related to the third number. [S.S.C CGL 09/12/2022 (4th Shift)]

12 : 132 :: 20 : 380 :: 2 : ?

Correct Answer: (d) 2
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a : b) → {a × (a - 1)} = b

(12 : 132) → {12 × (12 - 1)} = 132

(20 : 380) → {20 × (20 - 1)} = 380

Similarly,

(2 : ?) → {2 × (2 - 1)} = 2

Hence, "2" is the correct answer.

23. Select the word-pair that best represents a similar relationship to the one expressed in the pair of words given below. [S.S.C CGL 12/12/2022 (1st 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.)

Cattle : Herd

Correct Answer: (b) Sailors : Crew
Solution:The logic followed here is :

A group of Cattle is called Herd

Similarly,

A group of Sailors are called Crew.

Hence, "Sailors : Crew" is the correct answer.

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

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

(6, 17, 408)

(13, 27, 1404)

Correct Answer: (d) (4, 26, 416)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → a × b × 4 = c

(6, 17, 408) → 6 × 17 × 4 = 408

(13, 27, 1404) → 13 × 27 × 4 = 1404

Similarly,

(4, 26, 416) → 4 × 26 × 4 = 416

Hence, "(4, 26, 416)" is the correct answer.

25. Select the option that is related to the fourth term in the same way as the first term is related to the second term and the fifth term is related to the sixth term. [S.S.C CGL 12/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

8 : 96 :: ? : 54 :: 12 : 216

Correct Answer: (b) 6
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a : b) → {a × (a + a ÷ 2)}

(8 : 96) → {8 × (8 + 8 ÷ 2) ⇒ 8 × 12 = 96

(12 : 216)→ {12 × (12 + 12 ÷ 2) ⇒ 12 × 18 = 216

Similarly,

(6 : 54) → {6 × (6 + 6 ÷ 2) ⇒ 6 × 9 = 54

Hence, "6" is the correct answer.

26. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given set. [S.S.C CGL 13/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

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

(4, 7, 165)

(14, 26, 601)

Correct Answer: (c) (3, 6, 135)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → {(a + b) × 15} = c

(4, 7, 165) → {(4 + 7) × 15} ⇒ 11 × 15 = 165

(14, 26, 600) → {(14 + 26) × 15} ⇒ 40 × 15 = 600

Similarly,

(3, 6, 135) → {(3 + 6) × 15} ⇒ 9 × 15 = 135

Hence, "(3, 6, 135)" is the correct answer.

27. 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 13/12/2022 (3rd 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.)

Flock : Birds :: Swarm : ?

Correct Answer: (b) Bees
Solution:The logic followed here is :

Group of Birds is called Flock

Similarly,

Group of swarms is called Bees.

Hence, "Bees" is the correct answer.

28. 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 13/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

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

(5, 2, 23)

(6, 2, 34)

Correct Answer: (d) (3, 2, 7)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → a² - b = c

(5,  2, 23) → 5² - 2 ⇒ 25 - 2 = 23

(6, 2, 34) → 6² - 2 ⇒ 36 - 2 = 34

Similarly,

(3, 2, 7) → 3² - 2 ⇒ 9 - 2 = 7

Hence, "(3, 2, 7)" is the correct answer.

29. 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 13/12/2022 (3rd 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)

Drama : Stage :: Trial : ?

Correct Answer: (d) Court
Solution:The logic followed here is :

A Drama is performed on stage

Similarly,

A Trial is conducted in a court of law.

Hence, "Court" is the correct answer.

30. 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 13/12/2022 (4th Shift)]

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

(60, 17, 13)

(62, 14, 17)

Correct Answer: (a) (56, 15, 13)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a, b, c) → {(b + c) × 2} = a

(60, 17, 13) → {(13 + 17) × 2} ⇒ 30 × 2 = 60

(62, 14, 17) → {(14 + 17) × 2} ⇒ 31 × 2 = 62

Similarly,

(56, 15, 13) → {(15 + 13) × 2} ⇒ 28 × 2 = 56

Hence, "(56, 15, 13)" is the correct answer.
