SSC CHSL 2023 PYQ — Question 86

SSC CHSL - 17 Aug 2023 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q86

The second number in the given number pairs is obtained by performing certain mathematical operation(s) on the first number. The same operation(s) are followed in all the number pairs except one. Find that odd number pair.

(NOTE: Operations should be performed on 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.)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 21 : 100.

Logic: (1st number × 4) + 12 = 2nd number

All follow the same logic while, 

21 : 100 → 21 × 4 = 84, 84 + 12 = 96 ≠ 100
