21. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given set. [SSC CGL 03/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

(Note: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)
(26, 120, 34)
(14, 110, 41)

(a) (36, 106, 17)
(b) (72, 240, 16)
(c) (44, 114, 24)
(d) (15, 45, 8)

Correct Answer: (a) (36, 106, 17)

Solution:Logic:
(1st number + 3rd number) × 2 = 2nd number

(26, 120, 34) : (26 + 34) × 2 = 120
(14, 110, 41) : (14 + 41) × 2 = 110
Similarly,
(36, 106, 17) : (36 + 17) × 2 = 106

22. 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. [SSC CGL 03/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

30 : 48 :: 60 : ? :: 45 : 72

(a) 96
(b) 92
(c) 90
(d) 88

Correct Answer: (a) 96

Solution:Logic:
a : b → Their simplest form must be 5 : 8

30 : 48 ⇒ (30 ÷ 6) : (48 ÷ 6) = 5 : 8
60 : 96 ⇒ (60 ÷ 12) : (96 ÷ 12) = 5 : 8
Similarly,
45 : 72 ⇒ (45 ÷ 9) : (72 ÷ 9) = 5 : 8

23. Select the word-pair that best represents a similar relationship to the one expressed in the given pair of words. [SSC CGL 03/12/2022 (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.)
Acquired : Obtained

(a) Bitter : Sweet
(b) Collected : Distributed
(c) Arrival : Departure
(d) Miniature : Tiny

Correct Answer: (d) Miniature : Tiny

Solution:As Acquired is the synonym of Obtained, in the same way Miniature is the synonym of Tiny.

24. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [SSC CGL 03/12/2022 (2nd Shift)]

(Note: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)
(8, 12, 6)
(9, 18, 8)

(a) (4, 12, 6)
(b) (12, 24, 8)
(c) (7, 24, 4)
(d) (9, 10, 11)

Correct Answer: (b) (12, 24, 8)

Solution:Logic:
(First number × Third number) ÷ 4 = Second number

(8, 12, 6) : (8 × 6) ÷ 4 = 12
(19, 18, 8) : (19 × 8) ÷ 4 = 18
Similarly, (12, 24, 8) : (12 × 8) ÷ 4 = 24

25. 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. [SSC CGL 03/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

11 : 94 :: 23 : ? :: 18 : 150

(a) 190
(b) 199
(c) 129
(d) 109

Correct Answer: (a) 190

Solution:Logic:
(1st no. × 8) + 6 = 2nd no.

(11 : 94) ⇒ (11 × 8 + 6)
(18 : 150) ⇒ (18 × 8 + 6)
Similarly, (23 : 190) ⇒ (23 × 8 + 6)

26. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following set. [SSC CGL 03/12/2022 (3rd Shift)]

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

(0.20, 5, 25), (0.083, 12, 144)

(a) (0.240, 4, 16)
(b) (0.143, 6, 36)
(c) (0.056, 18, 289)
(d) (0.063, 16, 256)

Correct Answer: (d) (0.063, 16, 256)

Solution:Logic:
(2nd number ÷ 3rd number) = 1st number

(0.20, 5, 25) ⇒ 5 ÷ 25 ≈ 0.20
(0.083, 12, 144) ⇒ 12 ÷ 144 ≈ 0.083
Similarly,
(0.063, 16, 256) ⇒ 16 ÷ 256 ≈ 0.0625 ≈ 0.063

27. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following set. [SSC CGL 03/12/2022 (4th Shift)]

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

(6, 22, 14)
(8, 30, 19)

(a) (12, 46, 27)
(b) (4, 18, 11)
(c) (7, 26, 17)
(d) (9, 34, 22)

Correct Answer: (b) (4, 18, 11)

Solution:Logic:
(Third number × 2 = second number + first number)

(6, 22, 14) ⇒ 14 × 2 = 22 + 6
(8, 30, 19) ⇒ 19 × 2 = 30 + 8
Similarly, (4, 18, 11) ⇒ 11 × 2 = 18 + 4

28. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following sets. [SSC CGL 03/12/2022 (4th Shift)]

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

(63, 81, 7)
(84, 49, 12)

(a) (99, 121, 9)
(b) (76, 234, 12)
(c) (12, 125, 56)
(d) (78, 14, 56)

Correct Answer: (a) (99, 121, 9)

Solution:Logic: (first number/ third number)² = Second number

(63, 81, 7) → (63/7)² = 81

(84, 49, 12) → (84/12)² = 49

Similarly, (99, 121, 9) → (99/9)² = 121

29. 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. [SSC CGL 05/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

7 : 25 :: 4 : 4 :: 3 : ?

(a) 5
(b) 4
(c) 1
(d) 7

Correct Answer: (c) 1

Solution:Logic:

(7 : 25) → (7 - 2)^2 = 25
(4 : 4) → (4 - 2)^2 = 4
Similarly, (3 : ?) = (3 - 2)^2 = 1

30. 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 05/12/2022 (1st Shift)]

(The words must be considered as meaningful English words and must be related to each other based on the number of letters/number of consonants / vowels in the word.)
