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

(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.)

(7, 91, 98)
(4, 52, 56)

(a) (8, 80, 96)
(b) (12, 156, 168)
(c) (3, 36, 42)
(d) (5, 25, 60)

Correct Answer: (b) (12, 156, 168)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

1^st number + 2^nd number = 3^rd number

(7, 91, 98) → (7 + 91) = 98
(4, 52, 56) → (4 + 52) = 56
Similarly,
(12, 156, 168) → (12 + 156) = 168

Hence, (12, 156, 168) is the correct answer.

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

(The words must be considered as meaningful words and must not be related to each other based on the number of letters/number of consonants/vowels in the word.)

4. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CPO 03/10/2023 (1st Shift)]

(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)

(264, 462), (132, 330)

(a) (211, 340)
(b) (188, 378)
(c) (282, 496)
(d) (386, 584)

Correct Answer: (d) (386, 584)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(2^nd number - 1^st number) = 198
(264, 462) → (462 - 264) = 198
(132, 330) → (330 - 132) = 198
Similarly,
(386, 584) → (584 - 386) = 198

Hence, (386, 584) 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 CPO 03/10/2023 (2nd Shift)]

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)

(13, 104, 16)
(9, 63, 14)

(a) (23, 204, 26)
(b) (12, 85, 15)
(c) (10, 92, 17)
(d) (8, 60, 15)

Correct Answer: (d) (8, 60, 15)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number × 3^rd number) ÷ 2 = 2^nd number
(13, 104, 16) → (13 × 16) ÷ 2 ⇒ 208 ÷ 2 = 104
(9, 63, 14) :- (9 × 14) ÷ 2 ⇒ 126 ÷ 2 = 63
Similarly,
(8, 60, 15) :- (8 × 15) ÷ 2 ⇒ 120 ÷ 2 = 60

Hence, (8, 60, 15) 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 CPO 03/10/2023 (2nd Shift)]

(The words must be considered as meaningful words and must not be related to each other based on the number of letters/number of consonants/vowels in the word.)

Nun : Convent :: King : ?

(a) Cottage
(b) Palace
(c) Monastery
(d) Prison

Correct Answer: (b) Palace

Solution:As Nun lives in convent.

Similarly, King lives in Palace.

7. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C CPO 03/10/2023 (2nd Shift)]

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.)

(15, 21, 66)
(9, 17, 44)

(a) (7, 9, 86)
(b) (2, 4, 12)
(c) (11, 13, 33)
(d) (5, 37, 52)

Correct Answer: (d) (5, 37, 52)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(3^rd number - 2^nd number) ÷ 3 = 1^st number
(15, 21, 66) → (66 - 21) ÷ 3 ⇒ (45 ÷ 3 )= 15
(9, 17, 44) → (44 - 17) ÷ 3 ⇒ (27 ÷ 3) = 9
Similarly,
(5, 37, 52) → (52 - 37) ÷ 3 ⇒ (15 ÷ 3) = 5

Hence, (5, 37, 52) is the correct answer.

8. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [S.S.C CPO 03/10/2023 (2nd Shift)]

(25, 3, 150)
(13, 7, 182)

(a) (10, 5, 100)
(b) (5, 8, 184)
(c) (3, 4, 45)
(d) (6, 13, 234)

Correct Answer: (a) (10, 5, 100)

Solution:The pattern followed here is:

(1^st number × 2^nd number × 2) = 3^rd number
(25, 3, 150) → (25 × 3 × 2) = 150
(13, 7, 182) → (13 × 7 × 2) = 182
Similarly
(10, 5, 100) → (10 × 5 × 2) = 100

Hence, (10, 5, 100) is the correct answer.

9. Select the option that is related to the fourth term in the same way as the first term is related to the second term and the fifth term is related to the sixth term. [S.S.C CPO 03/10/2023 (3rd Shift)]

5 : 21 :: ? : 252 :: 27 : 725

(a) 12
(b) 16
(c) 26
(d) 10

Correct Answer: (b) 16

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number)² - 4 = 2^nd number
(5 : 21) → (5)² - 4 ⇒ 25 - 4 = 21
(27 : 725) → (27)² - 4 ⇒ 729 - 4 = 725
Similarly,

(16 : 252) → (16)² - 4 ⇒ 256 - 4 = 252

Hence, 16 is the correct answer.

10. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set. [S.S.C CPO 03/10/2023 (3rd Shift)]

(5, 4, 405)
(7, 3, 500)

(a) (4, 1, 125)
(b) (5, 8, 789)
(c) (4, 5, 850)
(d) (3, 2, 145)

Correct Answer: (a) (4, 1, 125)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number + 2^nd number)² × 5 = 3^rd number
(5, 4, 405) → {(5 + 4)² × 5} ⇒ 81 × 5 = 405
(7, 3, 500) → {(7 + 3)² × 5} ⇒ 100 × 5 = 500
Similarly,
(4, 1, 125) → {(4 + 1)² × 5} ⇒ 25 × 5 = 125

Hence, (4, 1, 125) is the correct answer.
