Question : Directions: Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number:
42 : 56 :: 24 : ?
Option 1: 48
Option 2: 16
Option 3: 32
Option 4: 40
Correct Answer: 32
Solution :
Given:
42 : 56 :: 24 : ?
The resultant of the first number when divided by 6 is equal to the resultant of the second number when divided by 8 –
Like, 42 : 56→42 ÷ 6 = 7; 56 ÷ 8 = 7
Similarly, follow the same pattern for 24 : ?→24 ÷ 6 = 4; 4 × 8 = 32
So, the required missing number is 32. Hence, the third option is correct.
