SSC CPO Tier I - 12th December 2019 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q163

Four number pairs have been given, out of which three are alike in some manner and one is different. Select the one that is different.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct option is option 4 i.e 18 : 306.

Understanding

The pattern is, 

13 x 14 = 182

25 x 26 = 650

23 x 24 = 552

18 x 17 = 306

We see that option 4 is different from other because it is multiplied by one less than itself.

Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
