(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)
AL400 : ? :: BM520 : IJ700 :: EK710 : LH890
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
AL400 : ? :: BM520 : IJ700 :: EK710 : LH890
Just as:
BM520 : IJ700
B → I (+7)
M → J (−3)
520 + 180 = 700
And:
EK710 : LH890
E → L (+7)
K → H (−3)
710 + 180 = 890
Similarly:
AL400 : ?
A → H (+7)
L → I (−3)
400 + 180 = 580
Correct Answer: B) HI580
