Question 1

55 is to 91 as 11 is to ____ .

A 50

B 48

C 46

D 83

E 47

Worked answer

Correct answer: E — 47

  • Compare 55 and 91: the difference is 36.
  • So the rule is +36.
  • 11 + 36 = 47.
  • Why the other options are wrong:
  • A (50): The first pair adds 36; it does not multiply.
  • B (48): This is the correct answer (47) plus 1: an extra 1 was added at the end of the calculation (an off-by-1 error).
  • C (46): This is the correct answer (47) minus 1: 1 was taken off at the end of the calculation (an off-by-1 error).
  • D (83): Add just once.

Always ask whether a pair differs by a fixed amount (add) or a fixed factor (multiply).
