31. 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 (3rd Shift)]

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

(5, 11, 80)
(6, 12, 90)

(a) 4, 19, 148
(b) 9, 11, 67
(c) 7, 17, 120
(d) 2, 16, 123

Correct Answer: (c) 7, 17, 120

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number + 2^nd number) × 5 = 3^rd number
(5, 11, 80) → (5 + 11) × 5 ⇒ (16 × 5) = 80
(6, 12, 90) → (6 + 12) × 5 ⇒ (18 × 5) = 90
Similarly,

(7, 17, 120) → (7 + 17) × 5 ⇒ (24 × 5) = 120

Hence, (7, 17, 120) is the correct answer.

(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.)

Legend : Map

(a) Volume : Guidebook
(b) Glossary : Text

33. 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 11/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

8, 128
9, 162

(a) 11, 124
(b) 14, 392
(c) 12, 149
(d) 13, 170

Correct Answer: (b) 14, 392

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number)² × 2 = 2^nd number
(8, 128) → 8² × 2 ⇒ 64 × 2 = 128
(9, 162) → 9² × 2 ⇒ 81 × 2 = 162
Similarly,

(14, 392) → 14² × 2 ⇒ 196 × 2 = 392

Hence, (14, 392) is the correct answer.

34. 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 11/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

16 : 41
11 : 26

(a) 7 : 28
(b) 5 : 15
(c) 21 : 84
(d) 12 : 29

Correct Answer: (d) 12 : 29

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number × 3) - 7 = 2^nd number
16 : 41 → (16 × 3) - 7 ⇒ 48 - 7 = 41
11 : 26 → (11 × 3) - 7 ⇒ 33 - 7 = 26
Similarly,

12 : 29 → (12 × 3) - 7 ⇒ 36 - 7 = 29

Hence, 12 : 29 is the correct answer.

35. EH 11 is related to CF 16 in a certain way. In the same way, JV 15 is related to HT 20. To which of the following is FN 13 related to following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 11/09/2023 (2nd Shift)]

(a) DK 19
(b) CL 18
(c) EM 17
(d) DL 18

Correct Answer: (d) DL 18

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, DL 18 is the correct answer.

36. 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 11/09/2023 (3rd 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)
Bacteria : Decomposition

(a) Oxygen : Treatment
(b) Yeast : Fermentation
(c) Volcano : Eruption
(d) Antibiotic : Injection

Correct Answer: (b) Yeast : Fermentation

Solution:As Bacteria are the major microbes that help in the decomposition process

Similarly, Yeast is the major microbe that helps in the fermentation process.

37. 11 is related to 123 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 20 is related to 402. To which of the following is 13 related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 11/09/2023 (3rd Shift)]

(a) 171
(b) 172
(c) 173
(d) 174

Correct Answer: (a) 171

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number)² + 2 = 2^nd number
11 : 123 → 11² + 2 ⇒ 121 + 2 = 123
20 : 402 → 20² + 2 ⇒ 400 + 2 = 402
Similarly,

13 : ? → 13² + 2 ⇒ 169 + 2 = 171

Hence, 171 is the correct answer.

38. 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 12/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

(25, 49, 73)
(34, 23, 12)

(a) 5, 35, 17
(b) 11, 9, 18
(c) 18, 22, 26
(d) 13, 15, 19

Correct Answer: (c) 18, 22, 26

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1^st number + 3^rd number) ÷ 2 = (2^nd number)
(25, 49, 73) → (25 + 73) ÷ 2 ⇒ 98 ÷ 2 = 49
(34, 23, 12) → (34 + 12) ÷ 2 ⇒ 46 ÷ 2 = 23
Similarly,
(18, 22, 26) → (18 + 26) ÷ 2 ⇒ 44 ÷ 2 = 22

Hence, (8, 22, 26) is the correct answer.

39. MEOP is related to KCMN in a certain way based on the English alphabetical order. In the same way, LTDG is related to JRBE. To which of the following is UNTF related to, following the same logic? [S.S.C MTS 12/09/2023 (1st Shift)]

(a) SMRE
(b) SLRD
(c) VPUH
(d) TOSG

Correct Answer: (b) SLRD

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, SLRD is the correct answer.

40. PD 17 is related to TH 19 in a certain way. Similarly, HK 23 is related to LO 29. Following the same logic FJ 11 is related to which of the following? [S.S.C MTS 12/09/2023 (2nd Shift)]

(a) IM 13
(b) HL 17
(c) IN 15
(d) JN 13

Correct Answer: (d) JN 13

Solution:The pattern followed here is :

Hence, JN 13 is the correct answer.
