Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number.
35 : 1024 :: 41 : ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 1444
1024 is a perfect square, \(32^2\), and 32 is 3 less than 35. So the rule is: subtract 3 and square.
\(35-3=32\), and \(32^2=1024\)
For 41: \(41-3=38\)
\(38^2=1444\)
So the missing number is 1444.
