E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding /deleting /multiplying etc., to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 48.

80 is related to 99 → 92 - 1 : 102 - 1

0 is related to 3 → 12 - 1 : 22 - 1

Similarly, 35 is related: → 62 - 1 : 72 - 1 = 48
