E : 130 :: I : ___?___
Choose the correct option for the missing term.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → 738
Each letter is first replaced by its position in the alphabet, and the number is then tested against the given pair. E is the 5th letter, and 130 is \(125+5\), that is, the cube of the position plus the position.
E \(=5\): \(5^3+5=125+5=130\)
I \(=9\): \(9^3+9=729+9=738\)
