SSC CGL 2021 PYQ — Question 90

SSC CGL - 18 Aug 2021 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q90

Select the option in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following set.

(4, 10, 53)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. (7, 19, 98).

The logic used here is:

(4, 10, 53)

4 × 3 - 2 = 12 - 2 = 10

10 × 5 + 3 = 53

Option 1: (8, 20, 103)

8 × 3 - 2 = 22

22 × 5 + 3 = 113

This does not follow the logic.

Option 2: (11, 31, 152)

11 × 3 - 2 = 31

31 × 5 + 3 = 158

This does not follow the logic.

Option 3: (5, 13, 62)

5 × 3 - 2 = 13

13 × 5 + 3 = 68

This does not follow the logic.

Option 4: (7, 19, 98)

7 × 3 - 2 = 19

19 × 5 + 3 = 98

This follows the logic.

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
