Question : Directions: Select the option in which the numbers share the same relationship as that shared by the given pairs of numbers. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the 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.)

Option 1: 19 : 40

Option 2: 16 : 37

Option 3: 41 : 85

Correct Answer: 16 : 37


Solution : Given:
12: 29 and 15: 35

Multiply the first number by 2, and add 5 to the resultant to get the second number.
⇒ 12: 29→12 × 2 + 5 = 29
⇒ 15: 35→15 × 2 + 5 = 35

Let's check each option –
First option: 19 : 40; 19 × 2 + 5 = 43 ≠ 40
Second option: 16 : 37; 16 × 2 + 5 = 37
Third option: 41 : 85; 41 × 2 + 5 = 87 ≠ 85
Fourth option: 36 : 72; 36 × 2 + 5 = 77 ≠ 72

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