The analogy 4 : 60 :: 6 : ? follows one rule. Which number fits?

Competition practiceAnalogy & Classification
  • A216
  • B210
  • C198
  • D222

Step-by-Step Solution

The number is multiplied by itself three times and then the number itself is taken away. For 4 that is 64 − 4 = 60; for 6 it is 216 − 6 = 210. The trap 216 is the bare cube, but the cube of 4 is 64 and not 60. 222 adds the number instead of subtracting it, and 64 + 4 = 68, while 198 takes away three times the number, which on the first pair leaves 64 − 12 = 52.
Answer: B) 210
