Question

8 is related to 93 following a certain logic. Following the same logic, 10 is related to 117. To which of the following is 14 related, following the same logic? (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its 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.)

• A. 166
• B. 187
• C. 165
• D. 189

Answer 1

Answer:

C. 165

Look for a pattern:

8 → 93
10 → 117

Try: (n \times 12 - 3)

Check:

• $(8 \times 12 - 3 = 96 - 3 = 93)$

• $(10 \times 12 - 3 = 120 - 3 = 117)$

Now apply to 14:

$14 \times 12 - 3 = 168 - 3 = 165$

Final Answer: 165
