24: 32:: 36:? :: 54: 162

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 72.

The logic used here is:

24: 32

242 ÷ 18 = 576 ÷ 18 = 32

54: 162

542 ÷ 18 = 2916 ÷ 18 = 162

Similarly,

36:?

362 ÷ 18 = 1296 ÷ 18 = 72

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
