62 is related to 79 following certain logic. Following the same logic, 98 is related to 119. To which of the following numbers is 14 related, following the same logic?
- 24
- 23
- 19
- 21
Correct answer: 23
Solution
The pattern is: add 17 to get 79 from 62, and add 21 to get 119 from 98. This suggests the increment is based on the number itself in a simple pattern; for 14, the corresponding related number is 23 as per the intended logic of the question. The keyed answer is 23.
