11. 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 04/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

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

(4, 55, 7)
(2, 35, 5)

Correct Answer: (c) 32, 175, 3
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number + 3rd number) × 5 = 2nd number
(4, 55, 7) → (4 + 7) × 5 ⇒ 11 × 5 = 55
(2, 35, 5) → (2 + 5) × 5 ⇒ 7 × 5 = 35
Similarly,

(32, 175, 3) → (32 + 3) × 5 ⇒ 35 × 5 = 175

Hence, (32, 175, 3) is the correct answer.

12. DK 18 is related to EM 22 in a certain way. In the same way, ME 25 is related to NG 29. To which of the following is UL 14 related to following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 04/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (d) VN 18
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, VN18 is the correct answer.

13. In the following number-pairs, the second number is obtained by applying certain mathematical operations to the first number. 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 05/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

11 : 60
13 : 70

Correct Answer: (b) 15 : 80
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number × 5) + 5 = 2nd number
11 : 60 → (11 × 5) + 5 ⇒ 55 + 5 = 60
13 : 70 → (13 × 5) + 5 ⇒ 65 + 5 = 70
Similarly,

15 : 80 → (15 × 5) + 5 ⇒ 75 + 5 = 80

Hence, 15 : 80 is the correct answer

14. KGTO is related to HDQL in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, YFSH is related to VCPE. To which of the following is GUMS related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 05/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

Hence, DRJP is the correct answer.

15. JR 11 is related to KT 16 in a certain way. In the same way, VM 22 is related to WO 27. To which of the following is DS 18 related to following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 05/09/2023 (2nd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (b) EU 23
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, EU23 is the correct answer.

16. 5 is related to 19 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 8 is related to 31. To which of the following is 13 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 05/09/2023 (2nd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (a) 51
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number × 4) - 1 = 2nd number
5 : 19 → (5 × 4) - 1 ⇒ 20 - 1 = 19
8 : 31 → (8 × 4) - 1 ⇒ 32 - 1 = 31
Similarly,

13 : ? → (13 × 4) - 1 ⇒ 52 - 1 = 51

Hence, 51 is the correct answer.

17. 21 is related to 147 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 32 is related to 224. To which of the following is 52 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 05/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (b) 364
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number × 7) = (2nd number)
(21, 147) → (21 × 7) = 147
(32, 224) → (32 × 7) = 224
Similarly,

(52, 364) → (52 × 7) = 364

Hence, 364 is the correct answer.

18. Select the word-pair that best represents the same relationship expressed in the pair of words given below. [S.S.C MTS 05/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

(The words should be treated as meaningful Hindi words and should not be related to each other on the basis of number of letters/consonants/vowels in the word.)

stammer : conversation

Correct Answer: (a) Astigmatism : Sight
Solution:As stammer is antonym of conversation

Similarly, astigmatism is an antonym of vision.

19. In the following number-pairs, the second number is obtained by applying certain mathematical operations to the first number. Select the set in which the number are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets. [S.S.C MTS 05/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

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

11, 110
19, 190

Correct Answer: (a) 31, 310
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number × 10) = 2nd number
(11, 110) → (11 × 10) = 110
(19, 190) → (19 × 10) = 190
Similarly,

(31, 310) → (31 × 10) = 310

Hence, 31, 310 is the correct answer.

20. 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 06/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

(8, 720, 9)
(16, 800, 5)

Correct Answer: (d) 18, 1260, 7
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number × 3rd number) × 10 = 2nd number
(8, 720, 9) → (8 × 9) × 10 = 720
(16, 800, 5) → (16 × 5) × 10 = 800
Similarly,

(18, 1260, 7) → (18 × 7) × 10 = 1260

Hence, (18, 1260, 7) is the correct answer.
