2. Select the option in which the numbers share the same relationship in the set as that shared by the numbers in the given set. [S.S.C MTS 02/05/2023 (Morning)]

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

(8, 27, 125)

(64, 1331, 1728)

Correct Answer: (d) (216, 343, 512)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

All the numbers are cubes.

(8, 27, 125) → (2³, 3³, 5³)

(64, 1331, 1728) → (4³, 11³, 12³)

Similarly,

(216, 343, 512) → (6³, 7³, 8³)

Hence, "(216, 343, 512)" is the correct answer.

3. 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 02/05/2023 (Morning)]

7 : 36 :: 16 : 225 :: 21 : ?

Correct Answer: (a) 400
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number - 1)² = 2nd number
(7 : 36) → (7 - 1)² ⇒ (6)² = 36

(16 : 225) → (16 - 1)² ⇒ (15)² = 225

Similarly,

(21 : ?) → (21 - 1)² ⇒ (20)² = 400

Hence, "400" is the correct answer.

4. 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 02/05/2023 (Afternoon)]

9 : 28 :: 13 : ?

Correct Answer: (b) 40
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

{(1st number × 3) + 1} = 2nd number

(9 : 28) → {(9 × 3) + 1} = 28

Similarly,

(13 : ?} → {(13 × 3) + 1} = 40

Hence, "40" is the correct answer.

5. 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 MTS 02/05/2023 (Afternoon)]

6. Select the option in which the numbers share the same relationship in set as that shared by the numbers in the given set [S.S.C MTS 02/05/2023 (Evening)]

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

(14, 20, 26)

(22, 28, 34)

Correct Answer: (a) (32, 38, 44)
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number + 6) = 2nd number & (2nd number + 6) = 3rd number

(14, 20, 26) → (14 + 6) = 20 & (20 + 6) = 26

(22, 28, 34) → (22 + 6) = 28 & (28 + 6) = 34

Similarly,

(32, 38, 44) → (32 + 6) = 38 & (38 + 6) = 44

Hence, "(32, 38, 44)" is the correct answer.

7. 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 02/05/2023 (Evening)]

11 : 122 :: 14 : 197 :: 18 : ?

Correct Answer: (c) 325
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number)² + 1 = 2nd number

(11 : 122) → (11)² + 1 = 122

(14 : 197) → (14)² + 1 = 197

Similarly,

(18 : ?) → (18)² + 1 ⇒ 324 + 1 = 325

Hence, "325" is the correct answer.

8. 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 03/05/2023 (Morning)]

5 : 127 :: 6 : 218 :: 3 : ?

Correct Answer: (a) 29
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number)³ + 2 = 2nd number

(5 : 127) → (5)³ + 2 = 127

(6 : 218) → (6)³ + 2 = 218

Similarly,

(3 : ?) → (3)³ + 2 = 29

Hence, "29" is the correct answer.

9. 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 03/05/2023 (Morning)]

AR37 : DW44 :: PQ43 : SV50 :: GF31 : ?

Correct Answer: (c) JK38
