Total Questions: 49

41. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. [S.S.C CHSL 15/03/2023 (4th Shift)]

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

Correct Answer: (d) 13 - 174
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(1st number)² + 3 = b
(19 - 364) → (19)² + 3 = 364
(21 - 444) → (21)² + 3 = 444
(17 - 292) → (17)² + 3 = 292
But,

(13 - 174) → (13)² + 3 = 172 ≠ 174

Hence, (13 - 174) is the correct answer.

42. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. [S.S.C CHSL 15/03/2023 (4th Shift)]

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

Correct Answer: (b) 843 - 1181
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

2nd number - 1st number = reverse of digits of 1st number.
(729 - 1656) → 1656 - 729 = 927 ↔ 729

(681 - 867) → 867 - 681 = 186 ↔ 681

(507 - 1212) → 1212 - 507 = 705 ↔ 507

But,

(843 - 1181) → 1181 - 843 = 338 ≠ 348

Hence, (843 - 1181) is the correct answer.

43. In the following question, select the odd letter/letters from the given alternatives. [S.S.C CHSL 16/03/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

Hence, XXT is the correct answer.

44. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. [S.S.C CHSL 16/03/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

Correct Answer: (c) 361 - 9786
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

(225 - 5733) → (√225)³ ⇒ (15)³ = 3375
On reversing the number we get, 5733,
(169 - 2197) → (√169)³ ⇒ (13)³ = 2197
On reversing the number we get, 7912
(289 - 4913) → (√289)³ ⇒ (17)³ = 4913
On reversing the number we get , 3194
But,
(361 - 9786) → (√361)³ ⇒ (19)³ = 6859
On reversing the number we get , 9586 (Not 9786)

Hence, (361 - 9786) is the correct answer.

45. Select the odd word. [S.S.C CHSL 16/03/2023 (1st Shift)]

Correct Answer: (d) Glass
Solution:Except the Glass all are the electronics gadgets

46. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. [S.S.C CHSL 16/03/2023 (1st Shift)]

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

Correct Answer: (d) 3333 - 1111
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

1st number ÷ 2 = 2nd number
(6666 - 3333) → 6666 ÷ 2 = 3333

(8888 - 4444) → 8888 ÷ 2 = 4444
(4444 - 2222) → 4444 ÷ 2 = 2222
But,

(3333 - 1111) → 3333 ÷ 2 ≠ 1111

Hence, (3333 - 1111) is the correct answer.

47. Select the odd word pair from the given alternatives. [S.S.C CHSL 16/03/2023 (2nd Shift)]

Correct Answer: (b) Pencil - Rub
Solution:The reason followed here is :

All the items mentioned in options comes in pair,

A question must always have an answer

Cup comes with a saucer

Chair comes with a table

But,

Rubber comes with a pencil not rub

Hence, Pencil - Rub is the correct answer.

48. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. [S.S.C CHSL 16/03/2023 (2nd Shift)]

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

Correct Answer: (c) 1658 - 3216
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

1st number × 2 = 2nd number

(3926 - 7852) → 3926 × 2 = 7852

(7624 - 15248) → 7624 × 2 = 15248

(5826 - 11652) → 5826 × 2 = 11652

But,

(1658 - 3216) → 1658 × 2 = 3316 ≠ 3216

Hence, (1658 - 3216) is the correct answer.

49. Select the odd one out from the given alternatives. [S.S.C CHSL 16/03/2023 (2nd Shift)]

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

Correct Answer: (c) 480 - 2860
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

1st number × 6 = 2nd number
(260 - 1560) → 260 × 6 = 1560

(540 - 3240) → 540 × 6 = 3240
(320 - 1920) → 320 × 6 = 1920
But,

(480 - 2860) → 480 × 6 = 2880 ≠ 2860

Hence, (480 - 2860) is the correct answer.
