Option 1: 193
Option 2: 196
Option 3: 198
Option 4: 197
Correct Answer: 197
Solution :
Given:
121 : 145 : : 49 : 65 : : 169 : ?
Determine the square root of the first term and add 1 to the square of the immediate next number of square root of the first term, to get the second term –
Like in, 121 : 145 → 11
2
= 121; (11 + 1)
2
+ 1 = 145
And in, 49 : 65 → 7
2
= 49; (7 + 1)
2
+ 1 = 65
Similarly, follow the same pattern for 169 : ? → 13
2
= 169, (13 + 1)
2
+ 1 = 197
Therefore, 197 is related to 169. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
