Question:

Select the option that is related to the third number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the sixth number is related to the fifth number.

15 : 125 :: 27 : ? :: 36: 1728

Options:

689

749

790

729

Correct Answer:

729

Explanation:

15 : 125 :: 27 : ? :: 36: 1728

The logic followed here is ⇒ (1st no. ÷ 3 )3 = 2nd no.

Here,

15 : 125

⇒ (15 ÷ 3)3 = 53 = 125

and

36 : 1728

⇒ (36 ÷ 3 )3 = 123 = 1728

Hence

27 : ?

⇒ (27 ÷ 3)3 = 93 = 729
