Total Questions: 2

1. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [SSC CGL Tier II 26/10/2023]

NOTE :- (Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g., 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding /subtracting /multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)

(5, 5, 25)
(2, 5, 10)

Correct Answer: (a) (3, 3, 9)
Solution: Logic: (1st number × 2nd number) = 3rd number
(5, 5, 25) :- (5 × 5) = 25
(2, 5, 10) :- (2 × 5) = 10
Similarly,
(3, 3, 9) :- (3 × 3) = 9

2. 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 CPO 03/10/2023 (1st Shift)]

TEMPLE : SCJLGY :: CHURCH : BFRNXB :: MOSQUE : ?

Correct Answer: (d) LMPMPY
Solution:TEMPLE  ⇒  (T - 1 = S) - (E - 2 = C) - (M - 3 = J) - (P - 4 = L) - (L - 5 = G) - (E - 6 = Y)  ⇒  SCJLGY

CHURCH  ⇒  (C - 1 = B) - (H - 2 = F) - (U - 3 = R) - (R - 4 = N) - (C - 5 = X) - (H - 6 = B)  ⇒  BFRNXB

Similarly :- MOSQUE  ⇒  (M - 1 = L) - (O - 2 = M) - (S - 3 = P) - (Q - 4 = M) - (U - 5 = P) - (E - 6 = Y)  ⇒  LMPMPY
