Question : Directions: Select the option that is related to the fourth term in the same way as the first term is related to the second term and the fifth term is related to the sixth term.
2 : 26 :: ? : 152 :: 27 : 1026
Option 1: 6
Option 2: 8
Option 3: 24
Option 4: 13
Correct Answer: 8
Solution :
Given:
2 : 26 :: ? : 152 :: 27 : 1026
Add 11 to the first number and multiply the resultant with the first number to get the second number –
Like in, 2 : 26 → 2 × (2 + 11) = 26
And in, 27 : 1026 → 27 × (27 + 11) = 1026
Similarly, follow the same pattern for ? : 152 →? × (? + 11) = 152 ⇒ ? = 152/? – 11 ⇒ ? 8
? = 8;
Therefore, the required missing number is 8. Hence, the second option is correct.
