Question

    In the following number-pairs, the second number is

    obtained by applying certain mathematical operations to the first number. Which numbers should replace X and Y so that the pattern followed by the two numbers on the left side of :: is the same as that on the right side of :: ? (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 X = 164, Y = 92 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B X = 168, Y = 98 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C X = 174, Y = 84 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D X = 156, Y = 86 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The correct answer is A
