Correct Answer: 138


Solution : Given:
10 : 95 :: 12 : ?

Find the difference between the square of the first number and the number obtained by dividing the first number by 2 to obtain the missing term –
Here, 10 : 95→10 2 – (10 ÷ 2) = 100 – 5 = 95
Similarly, follow the same pattern for 12 : ?; 12 2 – (12 ÷ 2) = 144 – 6 = 138

So, 138 is the missing number in the given set of numbers. Hence, the third option is correct.
