Select the option that is related to the fifth number in the same way as the second number is related to the first number and the fourth number is related to the third number.
196: 226:: 256: 290:: 324: ?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
Pattern followed here is
x2 : x2 + ( x+1) × 2
196: 226
x2 = 196 , x = 14
x2 + ( x+1) × 2 = 196 + (14+1) × 2 = 196 + 30 = 226
& 256: 290
x2 = 256 , x = 16
x2 + ( x+1) × 2 = 256 + (16+1) × 2 = 256 + 34 = 290
Similarly ,
324: ?
x2 = 324 , x = 18
x2 + ( x+1) × 2 = 324 + (18+1) × 2 =324+ 38 = 362
362 , is correct answer .
