Correct Answer: 18 : 972


Solution : Given:
14 : 588

The second term is divided by the first term is equal to one–third of the first term.
Here in, 14 : 588→588 ÷ 14 = 42 = 14 × 3
Let's check the options –
First option: 20 : 980→980 ÷ 20 = 49 ≠ 20 × 3
Second option: 18 : 972→972 ÷ 18 = 54 = 18 × 3
Third option: 12 : 666→666 ÷ 12 = 55.5 ≠ 12 × 3
Fourth option: 11 : 344→344 ÷ 11 = 31.2 ≠ 11 × 3

So, only the second option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the second option is correct.
