11. Select the option that is related to the fifth number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the fourth number is related to the third number. [S.S.C MTS 13/07/2022 (Evening)]

347 : 14 :: 122 : 5 :: 244 : ?

Correct Answer: (b) 10
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

The sum of digit of first term = Second term

(347 : 14) → 3 + 4 + 7 = 14

(122 : 5) → 1 + 2 + 2 = 5

Similarly,

(244 : ?) → 2 + 4 + 4 = 10

Hence, "10" is the correct answer.

12. Select the option that is related to the fifth term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term and the fourth term is related to the third term. [S.S.C MTS 14/07/2022 (Morning)]

TACKLE : TCCMLG :: NEPTUNE : ?

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

Hence, "NGPVUPE" is the correct answer.

13. Select the option that is related to the fifth number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the fourth number is related to the third number. [S.S.C MTS 14/07/2022 (Evening)]

339 : 1022 :: 58 : 179 :: 25 : ?

Correct Answer: (a) 80
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(339 : 1022) → 339 × 3 + 5 = 1022

(58 : 179) → 58 × 3 + 5 = 179

Similarly,

(25 : ?) → 25 × 3 + 5 = 80

Hence, "80" is the correct answer.

14. Select the options in which the two numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers in the given number pairs. [S.S.C MTS 14/07/2022 (Evening)]

23 : 529

26 : 676

Correct Answer: (a) 24 : 576
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a : b) → a² = b

(23 : 529) → 23² = 529

(26 : 676) → 26² = 676

Similarly,

(24 : 576) → 24² = 576

Hence, "(24 : 576)" is the correct answer.

15. Select the option that is related to the third letter-cluster in the same way as the second letter-cluster is related to the first letter-cluster. [S.S.C MTS 14/07/2022 (Evening)]

GRM : MGR :: PAR : ?

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

Hence, "RPA" is the correct answer.

16. Select the option that is related to the fifth number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the fourth number is related t0 the third number. [S.S.C MTS 14/07/2022 (Evening)]

29 : 31 :: 19 : 23 :: 31 : ?

Correct Answer: (a) 37
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(29 : 31) → both 29 and 31 are consecutive prime numbers.

(19 : 23) → both 19 and 23 are consecutive prime numbers.

Similarly,

The next consecutive prime is 31 is 37.

So, we get 31 : 37.

Hence, "37" is the correct answer.

17. Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number. [S.S.C MTS 15/07/2022 (Evening)]

2041 : 346 :: 5310 : ?

Correct Answer: (b) 732
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(a : b) → (Sum of digit of a)³ + 3} = b

(2041 : 346) → {(2 + 0 + 4 + 1)³ + 3} ⇒ (7³ + 3) ⇒ 343 + 3 = 346 

Similarly,

(5310 : ?) → {(5 + 3 + 1 + 0)³ + 3} ⇒ (9³ + 3) ⇒ 729 + 3 = 732 

Hence, "732" is the correct answer.

18. Select the option in which the words share the same relationship as that shared by the given pair of words. [S.S.C MTS 15/07/2022 (Evening)]

Money : Wallet

Correct Answer: (d) Letter : Envelop
Solution:The logic followed here is :

Money is kept in Wallet.

Similarly,

Letter is kept in Envelope.

Hence, "Letter : Envelop" is the correct answer.

19. Select the option that is related to the fifth term in the same way as the second term is related to the first term and the fourth term is related to the third term. [S.S.C MTS 15/07/2022 (Evening)]

SACRIFY : ARFYICS :: NUMERAL : UEALRMN :: SHALLOW : ?

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

SACRIFY = 1234567(placement of alphabets respectively)  ↔ ARFYICS = 2467531

NUMERAL = 1234567 ↔ UEALRMN = 2467531

Similarly,

SHALLOW = 1234567 ↔ HLOWLAS = 2467531

Hence, "HLOWLAS" is the correct answer.

20. 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 MTS 15/07/2022 (Evening)]

CAM : EES :: OAT : QEZ :: TOI : ?

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

Hence, "VSO" is the correct answer.
