31. 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 05/10/2023 (2nd Shift)]

7 : 40 :: ? : 667 :: 39 : 1512

(a) 47
(b) 34
(c) 25
(d) 26

Correct Answer: (d) 26

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number)² - 9 = 2^nd number
(7 : 40) → (7)² - 9 ⇒ 49 - 9 = 40
(39 : 1512) → (39)² - 9 ⇒ 1521 - 9 = 1512
Similarly,
(26 : 667) → (26)² - 9 ⇒ 676 - 9 = 667

Hence, 26 is the correct answer.

32. 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 05/10/2023 (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)

(6, 15, 1)
(5, 6, 3)

(a) (15, 21, 8)
(b) (12, 46, 5)
(c) (5, 32, 7)
(d) (7, 42, 5)

Correct Answer: (a) (15, 21, 8)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number - 3^rd number) × 3 = 2^nd number
(6, 15, 1) → (6 - 1) × 3 = 15
(5, 6, 3) → (5 - 3) × 3 = 6
Similarly,
(15, 21, 8) → (15 - 8) × 3 = 21

Hence, (15, 21, 8) is the correct answer.

33. 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 05/10/2023 (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)

(5, 4, 2)
(9, 9, 3)

(a) (21, 39, 1)
(b) (5, 2, 6)
(c) (17, 6, 5)
(d) (24, 43, 34)

Correct Answer: (a) (21, 39, 1)

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number - 3^rd number) × 2 - (3^rd number) = 2^nd number
(5, 4, 2) → {(5 - 2) × 2} - 2 ⇒ (3 × 2) - 2 = 4
(9, 9, 3) → {(9 - 3) × 2} - 3 ⇒ (6 × 2) - 3 = 9
Similarly,
(21, 39, 1) → {(21 - 1) × 2} - 1 ⇒ (20 × 2) - 1 = 39

Hence, (21, 39, 1) is the correct answer.

34. Select the option that is related to the third word in the same way as the second word is related to the first word. (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.) [S.S.C CPO 05/10/2023 (3rd Shift)]

Centre : Focus :: Vicar : ?

(a) Life
(b) Riddle
(c) Priest
(d) Building

Correct Answer: (c) Priest

Solution:As the centre is related to focus

Similarly, the vicar is related to the priest.

35. 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 05/10/2023 (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.)

(53, 36, 25)
(71, 54, 43)

(a) (66, 53, 41)
(b) (32, 14, 7)
(c) (99, 82, 71)
(d) (41, 23, 18)

Correct Answer: (c) (99, 82, 71)

Solution:The pattern followed here is:

(1^st number - 2^nd number) = 17, (2^nd number - 3^rd number) = 11
(53, 36, 25) → (53 - 36) = 17, (36 - 25) = 11
(71, 54, 43) → (71 - 54) = 17, (54 - 43) = 11
Similarly,
(99, 82, 71) → (99 - 82) = 17, (82 - 71) = 11

Hence, (99, 82, 71) is the correct answer.

36. 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 05/10/2023 (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.)

Pressure : Barometer :: Electricity : ?

(a) Cyclotron
(b) Bolometer
(c) Multimeter
(d) Audiometer

Correct Answer: (c) Multimeter

Solution:Just as a barometer measures pressure.

Similarly, Multimeter measures electricity.(various electrical parameter like voltage, current, resistance)
