41. Select the triad in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following triads. [S.S.C CHSL 07/08/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

8 - 70 - 9

8 - 95 - 11

Correct Answer: (c) 6 - 135 - 21
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number + 3rd number) × 5 = 2nd number

(5 - 70 - 9) → (5 + 9) × 5 ⇒ 14 × 5 = 70

(8 - 95 - 11) → (8 + 11) × 5 ⇒ 19 × 5 = 95

Similarly,

(6 - 135 - 21) → (6 + 21) × 5 ⇒ 27 × 5 = 135

Hence, (6 - 135 - 21) is the correct answer.

42. In the following number-pairs, the second number is obtained by applying certain mathematical operations to the first number. Select the option in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following pairs. [S.S.C CHSL 07/08/2023 (1st Shift)]

(Note :- Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits.)
9, 77
16, 252

Correct Answer: (b) 11, 117
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number)² - 4 = (2nd number)

(9 : 77) → (9² - 4) ⇒ 81 - 4 = 77

(16 : 252) → (16² - 4) ⇒ 256 - 4 = 252

Similarly,
(11 : 117) → (11² - 4) ⇒ 121 - 4 = 117

43. NQSP is related to TWYV in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, EHJG is related to KNPM. To which of the following is LOQN related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C CHSL 07/08/2023 (2nd Shift)]

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

Hence, RUWT is the correct answer.

44. 23 is related to 74 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 13 is related to 44. To which of the following is 18 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C CHSL 07/08/2023 (2nd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (c) 59
Solution:Logic: (1st num × 3) + 5 = 2nd num

(23 - 74) → {(23 × 3) + 5} ⇒ 69 + 5 = 74

(13 - 44) → {(13 × 3) + 5} ⇒ 39 + 5 = 44

Similarly,

(18 - ?) → {(18 × 3) + 5} ⇒ 54 + 5 = 59

Hence, 59 is the correct answer.

45. Select the number pair in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given number pairs. [S.S.C CHSL 07/08/2023 (2nd Shift)]

(NOTE :- Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits.)
6 : 31
8 : 59

Correct Answer: (c) 25 : 620
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number)² - 5 = 2nd number

(6 : 31) → (6² - 5) ⇒ 36 - 5 = 31

(8 : 59) → (8² - 5) ⇒ 64 - 5 = 59

Similarly,

(25 : 620) → (25² - 5) ⇒ 625 - 5 = 620

Hence, (25 : 620) is the correct answer.

46. DHMN is related to DMNH in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, PTSQ is related to PSQT. To which of the following is JLTA related to following the same logic? [S.S.C CHSL 07/08/2023 (2nd Shift)]

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

Hence, JTAL is the correct answer.

47. 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 07/08/2023 (3rd Shift)]

DHS : IFX

KNW : PLB

Correct Answer: (d) SBH : XZM
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, SBH : XZM is the correct answer.

48. 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 07/08/2023 (4th Shift)]

EKM : DIJ
LPT : KNQ

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

Hence, PWZ : OUW is the correct answer.
