Direction: In the following questions, there is a certain relationship between two given numbers on one side of :: and one number is given on another side of the same :: while another number is to be found from the given alternatives:-
42 : 20 :: 64 : ?
31
32
33
34
Correct answer
31
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed in the given series is:
First term ÷ 2 - 1 = Second term
Now we apply the pattern on the given series:
42 : 20 :: 64 : ?
42 : 20
42 ÷ 2 - 1 = 20
21 - 1 = 20
20 = 20
64 : ?
64 ÷ 2 - 1 = ?
32 - 1 = ?
31 = Answer
Hence, the correct answer is option (1).
Direction: In the following questions, there is a certain relationship between two given numbers on one side of :: and one number is given on another side of the same :: while another number is to be found from the given alternatives:-
49 : 81 :: 100 : ?
64
144
169
None of the above
Correct answer
144
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed in the given series is:
(√First term) + 2 = √Second term
Now we apply the pattern on the given series:
49 : 81 :: 100 : ?
(√49) + 2 = √81
7 + 2 = 9
9 = 9
Similarly,
49 : 81 :: 100 : ?
(√100) + 2 = √?
10 + 2 = √?
12 = √Answer
Answer = 144
Hence, the correct answer is option (2).
Direction: In the following questions, there is a certain relationship between two given numbers on one side of :: and one number is given on another side of the same :: while another number is to be found from the given alternatives:-
0.16 : 0.0016 :: 1.02 : ?
0.0102
0.102
1.020
10.20
Correct answer
0.0102
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed in the given series is:
First term ÷ 100 = Second term
Now we apply the pattern on the given series:
0.16 : 0.0016 :: 1.02 : ?
0.16 ÷ 100 = 0.0016
0.0016 = 0.0016
0.16 : 0.0016 :: 1.02 : ?
1.02 ÷ 100 = ?
0.0102 = Answer
Hence, the correct answer is option (1).
Direction: In the following questions, there is a certain relationship between two given numbers on one side of :: and one number is given on another side of the same :: while another number is to be found from the given alternatives:-
1 : 1 :: 25 : ?
26
625
125
240
Correct answer
625
Why this answer is correct
The pattern followed in the given series is:
(First term)2 = Second term
Now we apply the pattern on the series:
1 : 1 :: 25 : ?
12 = 1
1 = 1
1 : 1 :: 25 : ?
252 = ?
625 = Answer
Hence, the correct answer is option (2).
