SSC Stenographer 2022 PYQ — Question 175

SSC Stenographer - 18 Nov 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q175

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the given sets. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their 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.)

(11, 100, 221) (14, 104, 300)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

 The correct answer is option 4 i.e. (13, 162, 331).

The logic used here is:

(11, 100, 221)

221 - 100 = 121 = 112

(14, 104, 300)

300 - 104 = 196 = 142

Similarly,

(13, 162, 331)

331 - 162 = 169 = 132

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
