Correct Answer: 22
Solution :
Given:
8 : 36 :: 6 : ? :: 12 : 76
For each pair, divide the first number by 2, then multiply it by the first number, and add 4 to the resultant, to get the second number –
Like, 8 : 36→(8 × (8 ÷ 2)) + 4 = (8 × 4) + 4 = 32 + 4 = 36
And, 12 : 76→(12 × (12 ÷ 2)) + 4 = (12 × 6) + 4 = 72 + 4 = 76
Similarly, follow the same pattern for 6 : ?→
(6 × (6 ÷ 2)) + 4 = (6 × 3) + 4 = 18 + 4 = 22
So, 22 is the required missing number. Hence, the third option is correct.
