Select the option that is related to the fourth term in the same way as the first term is related to the second term and the fifth term is related to the sixth term. 8 : 496 :: ? : 204 :: 9 : 711

1. 5
2. 13
3. 6
4. 11

Correct answer: 6

Solution

Rule: n * (n^2 - 2). For n=8: 8*(64-2) = 8*62 = 496. For n=9: 9*(81-2) = 9*79 = 711. For 204: n*(n^2-2)=204 → n=6: 6*(36-2)=6*34=204. Answer is 6.
