22. Select the option that is related to the fourth term in the same way as the first term is related to the second term and the fifth term is related to the sixth term. [Matriculation Level 28/06/2023 (Shift - 1)]

9 : 126 :: ? : 21 :: 294

Correct Answer: (c) 17
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

1st number × 14 = 2nd number

(9 : 126) → 9 × 14 = 126

(21 : 294) → 21 × 14 = 294

Similarly,

(x : 238) → x × 14 = 238

⇒ x = 238 ÷ 14

⇒ x = 17

Hence, "17" is the correct answer.

23. 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. [Matriculation Level 28/06/2023 (Shift - 1)]

24. Select the option that is related to the fourth term in the same way as the first term is related to the second term and the fifth term is related to the sixth term. [Matriculation Level 28/06/2023 (Shift - 4)]

Correct Answer: (d) 19
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number)² + 9 = 2nd number

(12 : 153) → 12² + 9 ⇒ 144 + 9 = 153

Similarly,

(? : 370) → 19² + 9 ⇒ 361 + 9 = 370

Hence, "19" is the correct answer.

25. Select the option that is related to the fourth term in the same way as the first term is related to the second term and the fifth term is related to the sixth term. [Matriculation Level 28/06/2023 (Shift - 4)]

28 : 841 :: ? : 324 :: 2 : 9

Correct Answer: (d) 17

(28 : 841) → (28 + 1)² ⇒ 29² = 841

(2 : 9) → (2 + 1)² ⇒ 3² = 9

Similarly,

(? : 324) → (17 + 1)² ⇒ 18² = 324

Hence, "17" is the correct answer.

7 : 1000 :: 4 : ? : 1728

Correct Answer: (c) 343
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number + 3)³ = 2nd number
