Correct Answer: 6


Solution : Given:
8 : 96 :: ? : 54 :: 12 : 216

In the above-given pairs, divide the first number by 2. Multiply 3 by the first number and then multiply both the resultants.
Like, 8 : 96→(8 ÷ 2) × 8 × 3 = 4 × 8 × 3 = 96
And, 12 : 216→(12 ÷ 2) × 12 × 3 = 6 × 12 × 3 = 216
Similarly, follow the same pattern for (? : 54)→(Let the missing number be a.)
⇒ (a ÷ 2) × a × 3 = 54
⇒ (a ÷ 2) × a = 54 ÷ 3
⇒ (a ÷ 2) × a = 18
⇒ a 2 = 18 × 2
⇒ a 2 = 36
⇒ a = 6

So, 6 is related to 54. Hence, the second option is correct.
