2 : 26 :: ? : 152 :: 27 : 1026

(a) 8
(b) 6
(c) 13
(d) 24

Correct Answer: (a) 8
Note:

Logic: 1st num × (1st num + 11) = 2nd num
(2 : 26) :- 2 × (2 + 11) ⇒ 2 × 13 = 26
(27 : 1026) :- 27 × (27 + 11) ⇒ 27 × 38 = 1026
Similarly,
(8 : 152) :- 8 × (8 + 11) ⇒ 8 × 19 = 152

(a) 11
(b) 8
(c) 12
(d) 7

Correct Answer: (c) 12
Note:

Logic: (1st num)² - 1 = 2nd num
(5 : 24) :- 5² - 1 = 24
(4 : 15) :- 4² - 1 = 15
Similarly,
(12 : 143) :- (12)² - 1 = 143

24. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [SSC CPO 04/10/2023 (3rd Shift)]

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

(13, 18, 21)
(11, 25, 8)

(a) (14, 33, 9)
(b) (6, 10, 12)
(c) (4, 12, 24)
(d) (8, 16, 23)

Correct Answer: (a) (14, 33, 9)
Note:

Logic: (1st num) × 3 = (2nd num + 3rd num)
(13, 18, 21) :- 13 × 3 = (18 + 21) ⇒ 39 = 39
(11, 25, 8) :- 11 × 3 = (25 + 8) ⇒ 33 = 33
Similarly,
(14, 33, 9) :- 14 × 3 = (33 + 9) ⇒ 42 = 42

(c) (8, 65)
(d) (13, 172)

Correct Answer: (d) (13, 172)
Note:

Logic: (1st num)² + 3 = 2nd num
(7, 52) :- 7² + 3 ⇒ 49 + 3 = 52
(9, 84) :- 9² + 3 ⇒ 81 + 3 = 84
Similarly,
(13, 172) :- (13)² + 3 ⇒ 169 + 3 = 172
