Select the option that is related to the fourth letter-number cluster in the same way as the first letter-number cluster is related to the second letter-number cluster and fifth letter-number cluster is related to sixth 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)
KIH13 : GED169 :: ? : FSU196 :: RTX17 : NPT289
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
KIH13 : GED169 :: ? : FSU196 :: RTX17 : NPT289
Just as:
KIH13 → GED169
K → G (-4)
I → E (-4)
H → D (-4)
13 → 169 ⇒ 13² = 169
And:
RTX17 → NPT289
R → N (-4)
T → P (-4)
X → T (-4)
17² = 289
Similarly:
? : FSU196
196 = 14² ⇒ 14
F (6) + 4 = J (10)
S (19) + 4 = W (23)
U (21) + 4 = Y (25)
Final Answer: JWY14
