21. 21 is related to 86 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 33 is related to 134. To which of the following is 25 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 06/09/2023 (2nd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (c) 102
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number ร— 4) + 2 = 2nd number
(21, 86) โ†’ (21 ร— 4) + 2 โ‡’ 84 + 2 = 86
(33, 134) โ†’ย (33 ร— 4) + 2 โ‡’ 132 + 2 = 134
Similarly,

(25, ?) โ†’ (25 ร— 4) + 2 โ‡’ 100 + 2 = 102

Hence, 102 is the correct answer.

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

Hence, RFJP is the correct answer.

23. CZMB is related to NNAM in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, LKQD is related to WRLO. To which of the following is HNTF related, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 06/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (b) SUOQ

Hence, SUOQ is the correct answer.

24. 27 is related to 36 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 69 is related to 78. To which of the following is 53 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 06/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (c) 62
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(2nd number - 1st number) = 9
(27 : 36) โ†’ 36 - 27 = 9
(69 : 78) โ†’ 78 - 69 = 9
Similarly,

(53 : 62) โ‡’ 62 - 53 = 9

Hence, 62 is the correct answer.

25. 28 is related to 12 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 42 is related to 19. To which of the following is 52 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 06/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

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

(2nd number ร— 2) + 4 = 1st number
28 : 12 โ†’ (12 ร— 2) + 4 โ‡’ 24 + 4 = 28
42 : 19 โ†’ (19 ร— 2) + 4 โ‡’ 38 + 4 = 42
Similarly,

52 : ? โ†’ (24 ร— 2) + 4 โ‡’ 48 + 4 = 52

Hence, 24 is the correct answer.

26. In the following number-pairs, the second number is obtained by applying 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 08/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

7, 13
18, 35

Correct Answer: (b) 22, 43
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number ร— 2) - 1 = 2nd number
(7, 13) โ†’ (7 ร— 2) - 1 = 13
(18, 35) โ†’ (18 ร— 2) - 1 = 35
Similarly,

(22, 43) โ†’ (22 ร— 2) - 1 = 43

Hence, (22, 43) is the correct answer.

27. Select the word-pair that best represents a similar relationship to the one expressed in the pair of words given below. [S.S.C MTS 08/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

(The words must be considered as meaningful English words and must not be related to each other based on the number of letters/number of consonants/vowels in the word.)

Cricket : Pitch

Correct Answer: (c) Boxing : Ring
Solution:As cricket is played on the pitch

Similarly, boxing occurs in the ring.

28. Select the word-pair that best represents a similar relationship to the one expressed in the pair of words given below. [S.S.C MTS 08/09/2023 (2nd Shift)]

(The words must be considered as meaningful English words and must not be related to each other based on the number of letters / number of consonants / vowels in the word.)

Correspond : Letters

Correct Answer: (a) Barter : Commodities
Solution:As Correspond means to engage in an exchange of letters similarly Barter is the exchange of goods or services for other goods or services without using money.

29. 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 following sets. [S.S.C MTS 08/09/2023 (2nd Shift)]

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

2, 7
5, 16

Correct Answer: (d) 15, 46
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number ร— 3) + 1 = 2nd number
(2, 7) โ†’ (2 ร— 3) + 1 โ‡’ 6 + 1 = 7
(5, 16) โ†’ (5 ร— 3) + 1 โ‡’ 15 + 1 = 16
Similarly,

(15, 46) โ†’ (15 ร— 3) + 1 โ‡’ 45 + 1 = 46

Hence, (15, 46) is the correct answer.

30. 17 is related to 52 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 42 is related to 127. To which of the following is 29 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 08/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (b) 88
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number ร— 3) + 1 = 2nd number
(17, 52) โ†’ (17 ร— 3) + 1 = 52
(42, 127) โ†’ (42 ร— 3) + 1 = 127
Similarly,

(29, ?) โ†’ (29 ร— 3) + 1 = 88

Hence, 88 is the correct answer.
