Question 163

SSC Combined Graduate Level (CGL) 2025• General Intelligence and Reasoning• General Intelligence and Reasoning

In the following question, a pair of letters is given, followed by its corresponding product of alphabetical positions (A = 1, B = 2, ..., Z = 26). A second pair of letters is given without its product. Identify the correct product for the second pair that maintains the same relationship as the first.

AxE : 1x5 :: DxK : ?

  1. AOption (a)

    3×9

  2. BOption (b)

    4×11

  3. COption (c)

    5×10

  4. DOption (d)

    4×12

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (b)B.

4×11

Why this answer is correct

The logic followed here is:

Logic: Each letter is replaced by its alphabetical position, and the product is written in the same order.

Here, AxE : 1x5

A = 1

E = 5

So, AxE becomes 1 × 5.

Similarly, DxK : ?

D = 4

K = 11

So, DxK becomes 4 × 11.

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 2."

Question 164

    30

  3. COption (c)

    36

  4. DOption (d)

    39

View answer & explanation

Correct answer

Answer: (d)D.

39

Why this answer is correct

The logic followed here is:

Given: 

Check each number:

Option 1) 21: Sum of digits = 2 + 1 = 3 → 21 ÷ 3 = 7 

Option 2) 30: Sum of digits = 3 + 0 = 3 → 30 ÷ 3 = 10 

Option 3) 36: Sum of digits = 3 + 6 = 9 → 36 ÷ 9 = 4 

Option 4) 39: Sum of digits = 3 + 9 = 12 → 39 ÷ 12 = 3.25 

So, 39 does not satisfy the condition.

Hence,The correct answer is "Option 4."

Question 170

SSC Combined Graduate Level (CGL) 2025• General Intelligence and Reasoning• General Intelligence and Reasoning

Option 1) A1 : D5 : G9

Option 2) B2 : E6 : H10

Option 3) C3 : F7 : I11

Option 4) D4 : G8 : K13

So, the odd group is D4 : G8 : K13.

Hence, the correct option is "Option 4".
