Select the option that is related to the third letter-number cluster in the same way as the second letter-number cluster is related to the first letter-number cluster and sixth letter-number cluster is related to fifth letter-number cluster.
(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)
AK160 : CO100 :: BP240 : ? :: CQ180 : EU120
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
AK160 : CO100 :: BP240 : ? :: CQ180 : EU120
Just as:
AK160 : CO100
AK → CO
A → C = +2
K → O = +4
160 - 60 = 100
And:
CQ180 : EU120
CQ → EU
C → E = +2
Q → U = +4
180 - 60 = 120
Similarly:
BP240 : ?
B + 2 = D
P + 4 = T
240 - 60 = 180
