21. 12 is related to 50 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 19 is related to 78. To which of the following is 13 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C CHSL 03/08/2023 (3rd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (c) 54
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number Γ— 4) + 2 = 2nd number
(12 : 50) β†’ (12 Γ— 4) + 2 β‡’ 48 + 2 = 50
(19 : 78) β†’ (19 Γ— 4) + 2 β‡’ 76 + 2 = 78
Similarly,

(13 : 54) β†’ (13 Γ— 4) + 2 β‡’ 52 + 2 = 54

Hence, 54 is the correct answer.

22. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CHSL 03/08/2023 (3rd Shift)]

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

56 - 26 - 60

19 - 8 - 22

Correct Answer: (c) 86 - 36 - 100
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number - 2nd number) Γ— 2 = 3rd number
(56 - 26 - 60) β†’ {(56 - 26) Γ— 2} β‡’ 30 Γ— 2 = 60
(19 - 8 - 22) β†’ {(19 - 8) Γ— 2} β‡’ 11 Γ— 2 = 22
Similarly,

(86 - 36 - 100) β†’ {(86 - 36) Γ— 2} β‡’Β 50 Γ— 2 = 100

Hence, (86 - 36 - 100) is the correct answer.

23. β€˜LJNR’ is related to β€˜QNQT’ in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, β€˜UHLP’ is related to β€˜OLOR’. To which of the following is β€˜FDHL’ related, following the same logic? [S.S.C CHSL 03/08/2023 (4th Shift)]

Correct Answer: (b) HKHN
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, KHKN is the correct answer.

24. In the following number-pairs, the second number is obtained by applying certain mathematical operations to the first number. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CHSL 03/08/2023 (4th Shift)]

(NOTE :- Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)
(125, 30)

(615, 128)

Correct Answer: (d) 225, 50
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(2nd number Γ— 4) + (2nd number - 25) = 1st number

(125, 30) β†’ {(30 Γ— 4) + (30 - 25)} β‡’ 120 + 5 = 125
(615, 128) β†’ {(128 Γ— 4) + (128 - 25)} β‡’Β 512 + 103 = 615
Similarly,
(225, 50) β†’ {(50 Γ— 4) + (50 - 25)} β‡’Β 200 + 25 = 225

Hence, (225, 50) is the correct answer.

25. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given sets. [S.S.C CHSL 03/08/2023 (4th Shift)]

(NOTE :- Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits.)
9 : 32 : 7
11 : 96 : 5

Correct Answer: (b) 6 : 27 : 3
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

{(1st number + 3rd number) Γ— (1st number - 3rd number)} = 2nd number
(9 : 32 : 7) β†’ {(9 + 7) Γ— (9 - 7)} β‡’ (16 Γ— 2) = 32
(11 : 96 : 5) β†’ {(11 + 5) Γ— (11 - 5)} β‡’ (16 Γ— 6) = 96
Similarly,
(6 : 27 : 3) β†’ {(6 + 3) Γ— (6 - 3)} β‡’ (9 Γ— 3) = 27

Hence, (6 : 27 : 3) is the correct answer.

26. WF 18 is related to ZI 13 in a certain way. In the same way, NT 16 is related to QW 11. To which of the following is SL 19 related following the same logic? [S.S.C CHSL 03/08/2023 (4th Shift)]

Correct Answer: (a) VO 14
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, VO 14 is the correct answer.

27. Select the option in which the letter-clusters share the same relationship as that shared by the given pair of letter-clusters. [S.S.C CHSL 04/08/2023 (1st Shift)]

AMY : TQA
YJZ : RNB

Correct Answer: (d) CUP : VYR
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, VYR is the correct answer.

28. Select the pair of letter-clusters which follows the same pattern as that followed by the two sets of pair of letter-clusters given below. Both pairs of letter-clusters follow the same pattern. [S.S.C CHSL 04/08/2023 (1st Shift)]

HMQ : QMH
PWY : YWP

Correct Answer: (c) LJH : HJL
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Letters are simply written in reverse order
HMQ β†’ QMH

PWY β†’ YWP
Similarly,
LJH β†’ HJL

Hence, LJH : HJL is the correct answer.

29. Select the option in which the numbers share the same relationship as that shared by the given pair of numbers. [SSC CHSL 04/08/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

3 : 22

6 : 211

Correct Answer: (d) 4 : 59
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number)Β³ - 5 = 2nd number
(3 : 22) β†’ (3)Β³ - 5 = 22

(6 : 211) β†’ (6)Β³ - 5 = 211
Similarly,
(4 : 59) β†’ (4)Β³ - 5 = 59
Hence, (4 : 59) is the correct answer.

30. 169 is related to 11 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 625 is related to 23. To which of the following is 961 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C CHSL 04/08/2023 (2nd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (a) 29
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(2nd number + 2)Β² = 1st number
(169 : 11) β†’ (11 + 2)Β² β‡’ 13Β² = 169
(625 : 23) β†’ (23 + 2)Β² β‡’ 25Β² = 625
Similarly,

(961 : ?) β†’ (29 + 2)Β² β‡’ 31Β² = 961

Hence, 29 is the correct asnwer.
