Correct Answer: 8


Solution : Given:
5 : 124 :: 6 : 215 :: ? : 511

Subtract 1 from the cube of the first number, to get the second number in each number pair –
Like, 5 : 124→5 3 – 1 = 124
And, 6 : 215→6 3 – 1 = 215
Similarly, follow the same pattern for ? : 511→X 3 – 1 = 511 ⇒ X 3 = 511 + 1 ⇒ X = 8

So, the missing number is 8. Hence, the third option is correct.
