8 : 72 :: 10 : 110 :: ? : 210

Correct Answer: (b) 14
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

{(1st number)² + (1st number)} = 2nd number

(8 : 72) → 8² + 8 ⇒ 64 + 8 = 72

(10 : 110) → 10² + 10 ⇒ 100 + 10 = 110

Similarly,

(? : 210) → x² + 14 = 210

⇒ x² = 210 - 14

⇒ x² = 196

⇒ x² = 14²

x = 14

Hence, "14" is the correct answer.

9. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets [S.S.C MTS 13/06/2023 (Morning)]

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

{(1st number × 2nd number) × 3} = 3rd number

(4, 6, 72) → {(4 × 6) × 3} ⇒ 24 × 3 = 72

(5, 7, 105) → {(5 × 7) × 3} ⇒ 35 × 3 = 105

Similarly,

(6, 8, 144) → {(6 × 8) × 3} ⇒ 48 × 3 = 144

Hence, "(6, 8, 144)" is the correct answer.
