Select the option that is related to the fifth number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the fourth number is related to the third number.

5 : 140 :: 8 : 536 :: 6 : ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 234.

Logic:  Second number = [(first no)3 + first no × 3]

5 : 140 = (5)3  + 5 × 3 = 125 + 15 = 140

8 : 536 = (8)3 + 8 × 3 = 512 + 24 = 536

Similarly, 6 : 234 = (6)3 + 6 × 3 = 216 + 18 = 234
