Question : Directions: Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the sixth number is related to the fifth number.
37 : 100 :: 24 : ? :: 29 : 76
Option 1: 64
Option 2: 61
Option 3: 75
Option 4: 70
Correct Answer: 61
Solution :
Given:
37 : 100 :: 24 : ? :: 29 : 76
Multiply the L.H.S. of an analogy by 3 and subtract 11 from the resultant to get the R.H.S.
Like, 37 : 100→37 × 3 = 111; 111 – 11 = 100
And, 29 : 76→29 × 3 = 87; 87 – 11 = 76
Similarly, 24 : ?→24 × 3 = 72; 72 – 11 = 61
So, 61 is the required number in the number pair. Hence, the second option is correct.
