Option 1: 192
Option 2: 189
Option 3: 190
Option 4: 194
Correct Answer: 190
Solution : Given: 31 is related to 94 and 37 is related to 112.
Like, 31 is related to 94→(31 × 3) + 1 = 93 + 1 = 94 And, 37 is related to 112→(37 × 3) + 1 = 111 + 1 = 112 Similarly,

Question : Two numbers are 35% and 50% less than a third number. By what percentage must the second number be increased to make it equal to the first number?
Option 1: 23.08%
Option 2: 15%
Option 3: 25%
Option 4: 30%
Correct Answer: 30%
Solution : Let the third number be 100. Then, the first number is 65 and the second number is 50. So, the required percentage = $\frac{65–50}{50}$ × 100 = $\frac{15}{50}$ × 100 = 30% Hence, the correct answer is 30%.

Question : Directions: Select the option in which the numbers share the same relationship in the set as that shared by the numbers in the given set. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g.13 – operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.) (8, 9, 431) (11, 8, 1267)
Option 1: (9, 12, 595)
Option 2: (13, 14, 2011)
Option 3: (7, 5, 318)
Option 4: (12, 10, 1528)
Correct Answer: (7, 5, 318)
Solution : Given: (8, 9, 431); (11, 8, 1267)
Here, (8, 9, 431)→(8)3 – (9)2 = 512 – 81 = 431 (11, 8, 1267)→(11)3 – (8)2 = 1331 – 64 = 1267

Question : An object with constant speed:
Option 1: is not accelerated
Option 2: might be accelerated
Option 3: is always accelerated
Option 4: also has a constant velocity
Correct Answer: is not accelerated
Solution : The correct option is not accelerated.
If a body is moving at a constant velocity, its acceleration is zero. Constant velocity means that the magnitude and direction of the velocity are not changing, and since acceleration is the rate of change of
Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following sets. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 – operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.) (9, 3, 90) (5, 4, 41)
Option 1: (13, 7, 218)
Option 2: (7, 8, 117)
Option 3: (11, 8, 182)
Option 4: (4,12,162)
Correct Answer: (13, 7, 218)
Solution : Given: (9, 3, 90); (5, 4, 41)
Add the squares of the first two numbers to obtain the third number — ⇒ (9, 3, 90)→92 + 32 = 81 + 9 = 90 ⇒ (5, 4, 41)→52 + 42
