Correct Answer: 8


Solution : Given:
108 : 6 :: 256 : ?

Find the cube of the second number and then divide the resultant number by 2 to obtain the missing term –
Here, 108 : 6→6 3 ÷ 2 = 216 ÷ 2 = 108
Similarly, follow the same pattern for 256 –
? 3 ÷ 2 = 256
? 3 = 256 × 2
? 3 = 512
? = 8

So, 8 is the missing number in the given set of numbers. Hence, the first option is correct.
