12 : 33 :: 31 : 71 :: 79 : ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e 167

12 : 33 :: 31 : 71 :: 79 : ?

The logic used here is:

(12 x 2) + 9 = 33

(31 x 2) + 9 = 71

Similarly, (79 x 2) + 9 = 167

So, 79 : 167

Hence, option 1 is the correct option.
