Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 8: 29.

The logic used here is: 1st number × 3 + 3 = 2nd number

Option 1: 10: 33  10 × 3 + 3 = 30 + 3 = 33  This follows the logic.

Option 3: 8: 29  8 × 3 + 3 = 24 + 3 = 27  This does not follow the logic.
