SUN : QSL :: PEN : ?
Each letter of SUN moves 2 places backward to give QSL.
Doing the same to PEN: NCL.
3 : 15 :: 7 : ?
The rule is n² + 2n: 3 → 15.
So 7 → 63.
DW : EV :: BY : ?
DW is a letter and its opposite (positions add to 27). The next pair takes the next letter and its opposite: EV.
So BY → CX.
LO : MN :: FU : ?
LO is a letter and its opposite (positions add to 27). The next pair takes the next letter and its opposite: MN.
So FU → GT.
KP : LO :: HS : ?
KP is a letter and its opposite (positions add to 27). The next pair takes the next letter and its opposite: LO.
So HS → IR.
Chef : Kitchen :: Farmer : ?
Chef is related to Kitchen in the same way as Farmer is related to Field.
Choose the pair that has the same relationship as 4 : 17.
4 : 17 follows n² + 1.
Only 10 : 101 follows the same rule.
STONE : 73 :: PAPER : ?
The number is the sum of the letter positions: 19 + 20 + 15 + 14 + 5 = 73.
For PAPER: 16 + 1 + 16 + 5 + 18 = 56.
TABLE : 40 :: BRAIN : ?
The number is the sum of the letter positions: 20 + 1 + 2 + 12 + 5 = 40.
For BRAIN: 2 + 18 + 1 + 9 + 14 = 44.
6 : 35 :: 11 : ?
The rule is n² − 1: 6 → 35.
So 11 → 120.
Petal : Flower :: Page : ?
Petal is related to Flower in the same way as Page is related to Book.
WIND : ZLQG :: GOLD : ?
Each letter of WIND moves 3 places forward to give ZLQG.
Doing the same to GOLD: JROG.
JOB : HMZ :: LAB : ?
Each letter of JOB moves 2 places backward to give HMZ.
Doing the same to LAB: JYZ.
KBF : FBK :: KIF : ?
KBF → FBK: the letters are reversed.
So KIF → FIK.
3-9-27 :: 8-64-?
The pattern is n, n², n³: 3-9-27.
For 8: 8-64-512.
Choose the pair that has the same relationship as 4 : 48.
4 : 48 follows n³ − n².
Only 9 : 648 follows the same rule.
10 : 101 :: 7 : ?
The rule is n² + 1: 10 → 101.
So 7 → 50.
PAG : GAP :: DKO : ?
PAG → GAP: the letters are reversed.
So DKO → OKD.
4-16-64 :: 8-64-?
The pattern is n, n², n³: 4-16-64.
For 8: 8-64-512.
YOUTH : 89 :: BRAIN : ?
The number is the sum of the letter positions: 25 + 15 + 21 + 20 + 8 = 89.
For BRAIN: 2 + 18 + 1 + 9 + 14 = 44.
