Number Analogy:

The number analogy segment of the exam covers two types of questions:

  1. Using the relationship between the numbers in each pair to select a similarly linked pair as the supplied number pair.
  2. Selecting a number that is comparable to a collection of numbers based on certain shared characteristics.

Numerical analogy questions:

1)Choose the best alternative.

26 : 5 : : 65 : ? 

  1. 6
  2. 7
  3. 8
  4. 9

Answer: Option C

Explanation:The relationship is (x² + 1) : x.

2)Choose the best alternative.

7 : 56 : : 9 : ?

  1. 63
  2. 81
  3. 90
  4. 99

Answer: Option C

Explanation:The relationship is x : x (x + 1).

i.e. x : x 2+ x.

So 9 : 92+ 9 = 81 + 9 = 90.

3)Choose the best alternative.

21 : 3 : : 574 : ?

  1. 23
  2. 82
  3. 97
  4. 113

Answer: Option B

Explanation:The relationship is 7x : x.

4)Choose the best alternative.

14 : 9 : : 26 : ?

  1. 12
  2. 13
  3. 15
  4. 31

Answer: Option C

Explanation:The relationship is (2x – 4) = x.

x = (26 + 4)/2

x = 15.

5)Choose the best alternative.

68 : 130 : : ? : 350

  1. 210
  2. 216
  3. 222
  4. 240

Answer: Option C

Explanation:Clearly, 68 = 4³ + 4; 130 = 5³ + 5; 350 = 7³ + 7. So, missing number = 6³ + 6 = 216 + 6 = 222.

 

6)Choose the best alternative.

  1. 2367
  2. 2451
  3. 2531
  4. None of these

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

The relationship is ?= x – 2222

7)Choose the best alternative.

5 : 36 : : 6 : ?

  1. 48
  2. 49

  1. 64
  2. 144
  3. 169
  4. None of these

Answer: Option B

Explanation:The relationship is x² : (x + 2)².

11)Choose the best alternative.

48 : 122 : : 168 : ?

  1. 215
  2. 225
  3. 290
  4. 292

Answer: Option C

Explanation:The relationship is (x²-1) : [(x+4)²+1]. 

Since 168=(13)²-1, so required number=(13+4)²+1=(17)²+1=290.

12)Choose the best alternative.

5 : 124 : : 7 : ?
