Total Questions: 50

1. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [SSC CGL 01/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

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

(20, 6, 4)
(24, 7, 5)

Correct Answer: (a) (65, 9, 4)
Solution:Logic: 1st number = (2nd number)^2 - (3rd number)^2
  • (20, 6, 4) → 20 = 6^2 - 4^2
  • (24, 7, 5) → 24 = 7^2 - 5^2
  • Similarly, (65, 9, 4) → 65 = 9^2 - 4^2

2. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [SSC CGL 01/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

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

(240, 55, 65)
(320, 85, 75)

Correct Answer: (c) (160, 35, 45)
Solution:Logic: (Second number + Third number) Ɨ 2 = First number i.e.
  • (240, 55, 65) → (55 + 65) Ɨ 2 = 240
  • (320, 85, 75) → (85 + 75) Ɨ 2 = 320
  • Similarly, (160, 35, 45) → (35 + 45) Ɨ 2 = 160

3. Select the option that is related to the fifth letter-cluster in the same way as the second letter-cluster is related to the first letter-cluster and the fourth letter-cluster is related to the third letter-cluster. [SSC CGL 01/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

GAVE : AGEV :: KEPT : EKTP :: ACID : ?

Correct Answer: (d) CADI
Solution:

4. Select the option that is related to the fifth letter-cluster in the same way as the second letter-cluster is related to the first letter-cluster and the fourth letter-cluster is related to the third letter-cluster. [SSC CGL 01/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

JUMPED : LWORGF :: QUICKS : SWKEMU :: FUZING ?

Correct Answer: (c) HWBKPJ
Solution:

5. 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. [SSC CGL 01/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

 

35 : 21 :: ? : 36 :: 40 : 24

Correct Answer: (c) 60
Solution:Logic: a : b = 5 : 3 i.e.
In (35 : 21) → (35 Ć· 7) : (21 Ć· 7) = 5 : 3
In (60 : 36) → (60 Ć· 12) : (36 Ć· 12) = 5 : 3
In (24 : 40) → (24 Ć· 8) : (24 Ć· 8) = 5 : 3

6. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given set. [SSC CGL 01/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

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

(9, 81, 729)
(14, 196, 2744)

Correct Answer: (b) (17, 289, 4913)
Solution:Logic: (n : n² : n³)
(9, 81, 729) ⇒ (9, 9², 9³)
(14, 196, 2744) ⇒ (14, 14², 14³)
Similarly, (17, 289, 4913) ⇒ (17, 17², 17³)

7. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [SSC CGL 01/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

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

(23, 14, 9)
(37, 19, 18)

Correct Answer: (c) (125, 25, 100)
Solution: Logic: 2nd number + 3rd number = 1st number
(23, 14, 9) ⇒ 14 + 9 = 23
(37, 19, 18) ⇒ 19 + 18 = 37
Similarly, (125, 25, 100) ⇒ 25 + 100 = 125

8. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [SSC CGL 02/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

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

(4, 13, 5)
(3, 12, 6)

Correct Answer: (d) (5, 17, 9)
Solution: Logic: (2 Ɨ First number + Third number) = Second number i.e.
(4, 13, 5) ⇒ (2 Ɨ 4 + 5) = 13
(3, 12, 6) ⇒ (2 Ɨ 3 + 6) = 12
Similarly, (5, 17, 7) ⇒ (2 Ɨ 5 + 7) = 17

9. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [SSC CGL 02/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

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

(4, 25, 6)
(8, 25, 3)

Correct Answer: (b) (7, 22, 3)
Solution: Logic: (First number Ɨ Third number +1) = Second number i.e.
(4, 25, 6) ⇒ (4 Ɨ 6 + 1) = 25
(8, 25, 3) ⇒ (8 Ɨ 3 +1) = 25
Similarly, (7, 22, 3) ⇒ (7 Ɨ 3 + 1) = 22

10. Select the option that is related to the third word in the same way as the second word is related to the first word. [SSC CGL 02/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

(The words should be treated as meaningful English/Hindi words and should not be associated with each other on the basis of number of syllables/number of consonants/number of vowels in the word.)

Panda : Bamboo :: Koala : ?

Correct Answer: (c) Eucalyptus
Solution:As Panda eat Bamboo similarly, Koala eat Eucalyptus.
