Select the option that is related to the sixth number in the same way as the first number is related to the second number and third number is related to fourth number.
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g.13 - Operations on 13 such as adding /subtracting /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)
1962 : 324 :: 3378 : 560 :: ? : 238
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
1962 : 324 :: 3378 : 560 :: ? : 238
Similarly,
1962 : 324
1962 ÷ 6 = 327
327 − 3 = 324
And
3378 : 560
3378 ÷ 6 = 563
563 − 3 = 560
Now apply it to the third term:
(? ÷ 6) − 3 = 238
? ÷ 6 = 241
? = 241 × 6
? = 1446
