Question : Directions: In the following number pairs, the second number is obtained by applying certain mathematical operations to the first number. Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following sets. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 – operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.) (42, 370) (57, 505)
Option 1: (29, 253)
Option 2: (31, 288)
Option 3: (49, 449)
Option 4: (84, 747)
Correct Answer: (29, 253)
Solution : Given: (42, 370), (57, 505)
Here, (42, 370)→(42 × 9) – 8 = 378 – 8 = 370 (57, 505)→(57 × 9) – 8 = 513 – 8 = 505
Let's check the options – First option: (29, 253)→(29 × 9) – 8 = 261 – 8 = 253 Second option: (31, 288)→(31 × 9) – 8 = 279 – 8 = 271 ≠ 288 Third option: (49, 449)→(49 × 9) – 8 = 441 – 8 = 433 ≠ 449 Fourth option:(84, 747)→(84 × 9) – 8 = 756 – 8 = 748 ≠ 747
So, only the first option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the first option is correct.
Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the given set. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g.13 – operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.) (70, 14, 56) (88, 30, 58)
Option 1: (44, 24, 23)
Option 2: (59, 36, 25)
Option 3: (52, 19, 33)
Option 4: (38, 16, 24)
Correct Answer: (52, 19, 33)
Solution : Given: (70, 14, 56); (88, 30, 58)
Here, (70, 14, 56)→14 + 56 = 70 (88, 30, 58)→30 + 58 = 88
Now, let's check the given options – First option: (44, 24, 23)→24 + 23 = 47 ≠ 44 Second option: (59, 36, 25)→36 + 25 = 61 ≠ 59 Third option: (52, 19, 33)→19 + 33 = 52 Fourth option: (38,16,24)→16 + 24 = 40 ≠ 38
So, only the third option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the third option is correct.
Question : Comprehension:
Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.
As the Sun inches closer to its peak activity in its solar cycle, an explosion has been picked up behind the northeastern limb of the star in our solar system. Solar observatories saw bits and pieces of the explosion, which remain obscured in view from Earth's orbit.
The explosion was spotted on 31 July at around 2309 UT and Earth-orbiting satellites registered a long-lasting C9.3-class solar flare. "The intensity is probably an underestimate because it was partially eclipsed by the edge of the sun. Nasa's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) saw hot debris flying away from the blast site," space weather, which tracks the solar activity, reported.
While the explosion was powerful, experts have predicted that Earth is not in the line of fire from the Sun. Scientists are expected to get a view of the active region later this week as it comes to sight. Earth is not in the line of fire. The explosion is significant because it may herald an active region set to emerge over the sun's northeastern limb later this week. A new sunspot group could bring an end to weeks of relative quiet," Space Weather said in its report.
Select the most appropriate synonym of the given word from the passage.
Partially
Option 1: Supportively
Option 2: Partly
Option 3: Frankly
Option 4: Completely
Correct Answer: Partly
Solution : The correct choice is the second option.
Partially means something that is not complete. Partly means something that is completed to some degree but not completely, making it the appropriate synonym for "partially".
The meanings of the other options are as follows:
Question : Directions: Select the option in which the numbers share the same relationship in the set as that shared by the numbers in the given set. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g.13 - operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc., to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.) (2, 6, 8) (117, 351, 468)
Option 1: (6, 19, 25)
Option 2: (4, 12, 16)
Option 3: (5, 12, 25)
Option 4: (7, 14, 23)
Correct Answer: (4, 12, 16)
Solution : Given: (2, 6, 8); (117, 351, 468)
In the given set of numbers, multiply the first number by three to obtain the second number and multiply the first number by four to obtain the third number. (2, 6, 8)→2 × 3 = 6; 2 × 4 = 8 (117, 351, 468)→117 × 3 = 351; 117 × 4 = 468 Let's check each option – First option: (6, 19, 25)→6 × 3 = 18 ≠ 19; 6 × 4 = 24 ≠ 25 Second option: (4, 12, 16)→4 × 3 = 12; 4 × 4 = 16 Third option: (5, 12, 25)→5 × 3 = 15 ≠ 12; 5 × 4 = 20 ≠ 25 Fourth option: (7, 14, 23)→7 × 3 = 21 ≠ 14; 7 × 4 = 28 ≠ 23
So, only the second option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the second option is correct.
Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following set. (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 – operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting /multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)

Correct Answer: (21, 9, 60)
Solution : Given: (26, 14, 170); (31, 7, 18)
In the given sets, add the first and the third numbers. The resultant is the square of the second number. (26, 14, 170)→26 + 170 = 196; (14)2 = 196 (31, 7, 18)→31 + 18 = 49; (7)2 = 49 Now, let's check the given options – First option: (11, 5, 17)→11 + 17 = 28; (5)2 = 25 ≠ 28 Second option: (34, 10, 72)→34 + 72 = 106; (10)2 = 100 ≠ 106 Third option: (21, 9, 60)→21 + 60 = 81; (9)2 = 81 Fourth option: (14, 6, 24)→14 + 24 = 38; (6)2 = 36 ≠ 38
