Figure for JIPMAT 2024 LR question 12 (Logical Reasoning) Choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

Let's look at A first.

From 149149 to 175175, the difference is 2626.

From 175175 to 203203, the difference is 2828.

We can see the difference increases by 2, hence ?? should be 203+30=233.203+30=233.

Hence, A matches (IV). We can eliminate Options 3 and 4.

In both Options 1 and 2, B matches (III).

If someone approaches by solving B first, then we can see that the ?? must be a number which is square of 33 i.e 99

32=93^2=9

92=819^2=81

812=656181^2=6561

C is a bit tricky.

0 can be written as 13−1=01^3-1=0

7 can be written as 23−1=8−1=72^3-1=8-1=7

26 can be written as 33−1=27−1=263^3-1=27-1=26

Hence, ?? should be 43−1=64−1=63.4^3-1=64-1=63.

C matches (I).

D can be solved as

9+22=139+2^2=13

13+32=2213+3^2=22

22+42=3822+4^2=38

Hence, ?? should be 3838.

D matches (II).

Option 1 is the only one to have all these matches so far, hence it's the answer.
