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

(6, 8, 106)
(7, 11, 177)

(a) (7, 9, 136)
(b) (9, 8, 154)
(c) (5, 9, 101)
(d) (8, 7, 119)

Correct Answer: (b) (9, 8, 154)

Solution: Logic: (1^st no.)² + (2^nd no.)² + 1^st no. = 3^rd no.
(6, 8, 106) :- (6² + 8² + 6) ⇒ (36 + 64 + 6) = 106
(7, 11, 177) :- (7² + 11² + 7) ⇒ (49 + 121 + 7) = 177
Similarly,
(9, 8, 154) :- (9² + 8² + 9) ⇒ (81 + 64 + 9) = 154

142 : 108 :: 185 : ? :: 169 : 135

(a) 151
(b) 148
(c) 157
(d) 162

Correct Answer: (a) 151

Solution:Logic: (1st no. - 2nd no.) = 34
(142 : 108) :- 142 - 108 = 34
(169 : 135) :- 169 - 135 = 34
Similarly, (185 : 151) :- 185 - 151 = 34

15. 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 04/10/2023 (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.)

16. 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 04/10/2023 (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)

(21, 5, 120)
(2, 7, 8)

(a) (3, 4, 10)
(b) (2, 6, 21)
(c) (4, 7, 34)
(d) (3, 4, 16)

Correct Answer: (a) (3, 4, 10)

Solution:Logic:
(1st no - 1) × (2nd num + 1) = 3rd no.
(21, 5, 120) :- (21 - 1) × (5 + 1) ⇒ 20 × 6 = 120
(2, 7, 8) :- (2 - 1) × (7 + 1) ⇒ 1 × 8 = 8
Similarly,
(3, 4, 10) :- (3 - 1) × (4 + 1) ⇒ 2 × 5 = 10

17. 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 04/10/2023 (2nd Shift)]

12 : 64 : ? : 116 : 32 : 144

(a) 35
(b) 14
(c) 25
(d) 46

Correct Answer: (c) 25

Solution:Logic: (1st number + 4) × 4 = 2nd number
12 : 64 :- (12 + 4) × 4 ⇒ 16 × 4 = 64
32 : 144 :- (32 + 4) × 4 ⇒ 36 × 4 = 144
Similarly,
? : 116 :- (25 + 4) × 4 ⇒ 29 × 4 = 116

18. 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 CPO 04/10/2023 (2nd Shift)]

INDIA : FKAFX :: ESTONIA : BPQLKFX :: MALAYSIA : ?

(a) JXIXFVP
(b) JXYPFXXI
(c) JPFXXIXV
(d) JXIXVPFX

Correct Answer: (d) JXIXVPFX

Solution:

19. 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 04/10/2023 (2nd Shift)]

(9, 1, 19)
(5, 2, 14)

(a) (4, 7, 37)
(b) (2, 5, 12)
(c) (3, 5, 56)
(d) (3, 2, 10)

Correct Answer: (d) (3, 2, 10)

Solution:Logic: (1st number × 2) + (2nd number)² = 3rd number
(9, 1, 19) :- (9 × 2) + (1)² ⇒ 18 + 1 = 19
(5, 2, 14) :- (5 × 2) + (2)² ⇒ 10 + 4 = 14
Similarly,
(3, 2, 10) :- (3 × 2) + (2)² ⇒ 6 + 4 = 10

20. 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 04/10/2023 (3rd 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.)
