Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number.
8 : 36 :: 12 : ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
For ⇒ 8 : 36
The logic followed here is :
⇒ (1st no. × half of 1st no.) + half of 1st no.
⇒ (8 × 4) + 4 = 32 + 4 = 36 (given)
Similarly
For ⇒ 12 : ?
⇒ (1st no. × half of 1st no.) + half of 1st no.
⇒ (12 × 6) + 6 = 72 + 6 = 78
