SSC Stenographer 2022 PYQ — Question 185

SSC Stenographer - 18 Nov 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q185

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.)

(182, 156, 13) (238, 212, 15)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. (337, 311, 18).

The logic used here is:

(182, 156, 13)

182 - 156 = 26

132 - 13 = 169 - 13 = 156

(238, 212, 15)

238 - 212 = 26

152 - 13 = 225 - 13 = 212

Similarly,

(337, 311, 18)

337 - 311 = 26

182 - 13 = 324 - 13 = 311

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
