SSC CGL 2023 PYQ — Question 88

SSC CGL - 18 July 2023 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q88

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the given set.

(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.)

(36, 21, 35)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (51, 34, 39)

The logic used here is: (1st number - 2nd number) × 2 = 3rd number + 5

(36, 21, 35): (36 - 21) × 2 = 30 + 5 = 35

Similarly, (51, 34, 39) = (51 - 34) × 2 = 34 + 5 = 39
