SSC CGL - 20 Aug 2021 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q83

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 68: 196.

The logic used here is:

1st number × 3 - 10 = 2nd number

Option 1: 54: 152

54 × 3 - 10 = 152

This follows the logic.

Option 2: 82: 236

82 × 3 - 10 = 236

This follows the logic.

Option 3: 36: 98

36 × 3 - 10 = 98

This follows the logic.

Option 4: 68: 196

68 × 3 - 10 = 194

This does not follow the logic.

Hence, option 4 is the odd one out.
