easy Q1 of 15
Reasoning Ability - Analogies
4, 8, 12 : 5, 10, 15 :: 6, 12, 18 : ______
A7, 14, 21
B8, 16, 24
C9, 18, 27
D10, 20, 30
Step-by-Step Solution
  1. Step 1: Identify pattern:

    Series1a = 4, 8, 12 (start=4, diff=+4). Series1b = 5, 10, 15 (start=5, diff=+5).
  2. Step 2: Apply rule:

    The transformation is start +1 and diff +1.
  3. Step 3: Compute new series:

    Series2a = 6, 12, 18 (start=6, diff=+6). Apply same rule → start +1 = 7, diff +1 = +7 → 7, 14, 21.
  4. Final Answer:

    7, 14, 21 → Option A
  5. Quick Check:

    Both pairs follow (start+1, diff+1) progression ✅
Quick Trick: In arithmetic analogies, look for shifts in both the starting term and the common difference between sequences.
Common Mistakes:
  • Keeping the same common difference instead of increasing it by one each time.
