1. 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 14/07/2023 (1st shift)]

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

(55, 11, 25)

(64, 16, 16)

(a) (33, 11, 9)
(b) (33, 11, 22)
(c) (33, 11, 3)
(d) (33, 11, 10)

Correct Answer: (a) (33, 11, 9)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^stnumber ÷ 2^ndnumber)² = 3^rdnumber

(55, 11, 25) → (55 ÷ 11)² ⇒ 5² = 25

(64, 16, 16) → (64 ÷ 16)² ⇒ 4² = 16

Similarly,

(33, 11, 9) → (33 ÷ 11)² ⇒ 3² = 9

Hence, "(33, 11, 9)" is the correct answer.

2. Select the option that is related to the sixth letter-cluster in the same way as the first letter-cluster is related to the second letter-cluster and the third letter-cluster is related to the fourth letter-cluster. [S.S.C CGL 14/07/2023 (1st shift)]

3. 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. [S.S.C CGL 14/07/2023 (1st shift)]

7183 : 3850 :: 6957 : ? :: 8972 : 5639

(a) 3426
(b) 3624
(c) 3246
(d) 3642

Correct Answer: (b) 3624

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^stnumber - 2^ndnumber) = 3333

(7183 : 3850) → (7183 - 3850) = 3333

(8972 : 5639) → (8972 - 5639) = 3333

Similarly,

(6957 : ?) → (6957 - 3624) = 3333

Hence, "3624" is the correct answer.

4. 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 14/07/2023 (1st shift)]

625 : 5 :: 2560 : 8 :: 5000 : ?

(a) 9
(b) 12
(c) 10
(d) 15

Correct Answer: (c) 10

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(2^ndnumber) ÷ 5 = 1^stnumber

(625 : 5) → 5⁴ × 5 = 625

(2560 : 8) → 8³ × 5 = 2560

Similarly,

(5000 : ?) → 10³ × 5 = 5000

Hence, "10" is the correct answer.

5. 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 14/07/2023 (2nd shift)]

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

(8, 44, 3)

(12, 60, 3)

(a) (12, 68, 5)
(b) (8, 50, 2)
(c) (17, 56, 9)
(d) (23, 98, 5)

Correct Answer: (a) (12, 68, 5)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^stnumber + 3^rdnumber) × 4 = 2^ndnumber

(8, 44, 3) → {(8 + 3) × 4} ⇒ 11 × 4 = 44

(12, 60, 3) → {(12 + 3) × 4} ⇒ 15 × 4 = 60

Similarly,

(12, 68, 5) → {(12 + 5) × 4} ⇒ 17 × 4 = 68

Hence, "(12, 68, 5)" is the correct answer.

6. 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 14/07/2023 (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.)
Orthopedic : Bone :: Cardiologist : ?

(a) Kidney
(b) Heart
(c) Lungs
(d) Brain

Correct Answer: (b) Heart

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

As Orthopedic is a doctor who specialized in the treatment of Bone

Similarly,

Cardiologist is a doctor who specialized in the treatment of Heart.

Hence, "Heart" is the correct answer.

7. 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. [S.S.C CGL 14/07/2023 (2nd shift)]

WOODLAND : ZIRXOUQX :: PERIODIC : SYUCRXLW :: MAGAZINE : ?

(a) HERDWBMO
(b) LPWXSYCZ
(c) NSCAQOLP
(d) PUJUCCQY

Correct Answer: (d) PUJUCCQY

Hence, "PUJUCCQY" is the correct answer.

8. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given sets. [S.S.C CGL 14/07/2023 (2nd shift)]

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

(14, 378, 9)

(18, 432, 8)

(a) (5, 125, 8)
(b) (15, 405, 9)
(c) (15, 305, 7)
(d) (11, 265, 8)

Correct Answer: (b) (15, 405, 9)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

1^stnumber × 3^rdnumber × 3 = 2^ndnumber

(14, 378, 9) → 14 × 9 × 3 = 378
(18, 432, 8) → 18 × 8 × 3 = 432
Similarly,

(15, 405, 9) → 15 × 9 × 3 = 405

Hence, "(15, 405, 9)" is the correct answer.

9. 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 14/07/2023 (3rd shift)]

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

(12, 8, 80)

(16, 10, 131)

(a) (11, 5, 55)
(b) (13, 4, 160)
(c) (14, 12, 126)
(d) (9, 6, 54)

Correct Answer: (d) (9, 6, 54)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^stnumber)² - (2^ndnumber ÷ 2)³ = 3^rdnumber

(12, 8, 80) → (12)² - (8 ÷ 2)³ ⇒ 144 - 4³ ⇒ 144 - 64 = 80

(16, 10, 131) → (16)² - (10 ÷ 2)³ ⇒ 256 - 5³ ⇒ 256 - 125 = 131

Similarly,

(9, 6, 54) → (9)² - (6 ÷ 2)³ ⇒ 81 - 3³ ⇒ 81 - 27 = 54

Hence, "(9, 6, 54)" is the correct answer.

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. [S.S.C CGL 14/07/2023 (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.)
