Total Questions: 38

11. 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 25/07/2023 (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.)

Cow : Milk :: Sheep : ?

Correct Answer: (a) Wool
Note:

As a Cow gives milk, similarly, sheep gives wool.

 

12. 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 25/07/2023 (4th shift)]

 

16 : 144 :: 22 : ? :: 14 : 112

Note:

13. 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 25/07/2023 (4th shift)]

 

GIST: FEHGRQSR :: DUCK: CBTSBAJI :: LOPE: ?

Correct Answer: (a) KJNMONDC
Note:

14. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [SSC CGL 25/07/2023 (4th Shift)]

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

  • (10, 5, 52)
  • (35, 7, 250)
Correct Answer: (a) (8, 4, 34)
Note:

Logic:
(First number ร— Second number) + (First number + Second number) = Third number

  • (10, 5, 52)
    โ†’ (10 ร— 5) + (10 รท 5) = 50 + 2 = 52
  • (35, 7, 250)
    โ†’ (35 ร— 7) + (35 รท 7) = 245 + 5 = 250

Similarly,

  • (8, 4, 34)
    โ†’ (8 ร— 4) + (8 รท4) = 32 + 2 = 34

15. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [SSC CGL 25/07/2023 (4th Shift)]

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

  • (4, 14, 56)
  • (6, 15, 90)
Correct Answer: (d) (7, 16, 112)
Note:

Logic:
(Third number + First number) = Second number

  • (4, 14, 56)
    โ†’ 56 รท 4 = 14
  • (6, 15, 90)
    โ†’ 90 รท 6 = 15

Similarly,

  • (7, 16, 112)
    โ†’ 112 รท 7 = 16

16. 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 26/07/2023 (1st Shift)]

 

  • 5 : 127 :: 9 : 2 :: 7 : 247
Correct Answer: (c) 407
Note:

Logic:
(First number) ร— (First number ร— 5) + 2 = Second number

  • 5 : 127
    โ†’ (5) ร— (5 ร— 5) + 2 = 125 + 2 = 127
  • 7 : 247
    โ†’ (7) ร— (7 ร— 5) + 2 = 245 + 2 = 247

Similarly,

  • 9 : ?
    โ†’ (9) ร— (9 ร— 5) + 2 = 405 + 2 = 407

17. 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 26/07/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

  • X-Ray : Radiologist :: Skin : ?
Correct Answer: (a) Dermatologist
Note:

As a Radiologist is a doctor who examines x-rays, similarly, a Dermatologist is a doctor who examines the skin.

 

18. Select the word-pair that best represents a similar relationship to the one expressed in the given pair of words. [SSC CGL 26/07/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

  • Horse : Foal
Correct Answer: (c) Cat : Kitten
Note:

As a child of a horse is called a foal, similarly, a child of a cat is called a kitten.

 

19. 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 26/07/2023 (2nd Shift)]

 

  • QIN : XPU :: DSY : KZF :: ALM : ?
Correct Answer: (d) HST โ€‹โ€‹
Note:

20. Select the set in which the numbers are NOT related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [SSC CGL 26/07/2023 (2nd shift)]

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

(8, 13, 21)

(13, 18, 31)

Correct Answer: (c) (11, 16, 29)
Note:

Logic:
(First number + Second number) = Third number

  • (8, 13, 21)
    โ†’ (8 + 13) = 21
  • (13, 18, 31)
    โ†’ (13 + 18) = 31

But,

  • (11, 16, 29)
    โ†’ (11 + 16) = 27
