SSC CPO - 23 Nov 2020 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q151

Select the number pair in which the two numbers are related in the same way as the two numbers of the following number pair.

16 : 224

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 22 : 440.

The logic used here is:

16 : 224

(16)2 - (16 × 2) = 256 - 32 = 224

Similarly,

22 : 440

(22)2 - (22 × 2) = 484 - 44 = 440

Hence, 440 is the correct answer.
