 SOLUTION
1. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. 220. Similarly, 189 : ?
11 is related to 55 27 × 7 = 189
11 × 5 = 55 Hence, 27 is the correct answer
22 is related to 110
22 × 5 = 110 6. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. 2197.
Similarly, 44 : ? 64 : 512
44 × 5 = 220 82 = 64; 83 = 512
Hence, 220 is the correct answer 225 : 3375
152 = 225; 153 = 3375
2. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. Attic-Common. Similarly, 169 : ?
The logic used here is: 132 = 169; 133 = 2197
The words in each option are synonyms.
Option (a): Attic - Common 7. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. UWVT.
Attic is the room under the roof of a house often FHGE is related to IKJH
used for storing things F + 3 = I, H + 3 = K, G + 3 = J, E + 3 = H
Common means usual HJIG is related to KMLJ
Both are not synonyms H + 3 = K, J + 3 = M, I + 3 = L, G + 3 = J
This does not follow the logic Similarly, RTSQ : ?
Hence, Attic-Common is the odd one out R + 3 = U, T = 3 = W, S + 3 = V, Q + 3 = T

3. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. NRS : QUV. 8. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. BY18.

AHL : DKO QN47 is related to VS58
A + 3 = D, H + 3 = K, L + 3 = O Q + 5 = V, N + 5 = S, 47 + 11 = 58
Similarly, NRS : QUV Similarly, WT7 : ?
N + 3 = Q, R + 3 = U, S + 3 = V W + 5 = B, T + 5 = Y, 7 + 11 = 18
Hence, NRS : QUV is the correct answer
9. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. 18.

16 × 7 – 1 = 112 – 1 = 111 7 is related to 51
(167, 14, 12) (7)2 = 49 + 2 = 51
14 × 12 – 1 = 168 – 1 = 167 Similarly, 4 is related to 18
Similarly, (131, 12, 11) (4)2 = 16 + 2 = 18
12 × 11 – 1 = 132 – 1 = 131
Hence, (131, 12, 11) is the correct answer 10. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. (14, 28, 7).

65 × 2 + 10 = 140
Similarly, 105 is related to 220
14. (a) The correct answer is option (a) i.e. (11, 5, 146). 105 × 2 + 10 = 220
(5, 7, 74)
(5)2 + (7)2 = 25 + 49 = 74 20. (c) The correct answer is option (c) i.e. FB42.
(6, 4, 52) LH3 is related to RN21
(6)2 + (4)2 = 36 + 16 = 52
Similarly, (11, 5, 146)
(11)2 + (5)2 = 121 + 25 = 146. 3 × 7 = 21

15. (b) The correct answer is option (b) i.e. 50.9. JF5 is related to PL35
99 is related to 77.3
99 – 21.7 = 77.3
84.4 is related to 62.7 5 × 7 = 35
84.4 – 21.7 = 62.7
 Similarly, ZV6 is related FB42 25. (d) The correct answer is option (d) i.e. EADT : DZCS.
The logic followed here is,

6 × 7 = 42 Similarly,
