If you’re preparing for the NMMS (National Means-cum-Merit Scholarship) exam, one key reasoning topic in the MAT (Mental Ability Test) is Number Analogy. This involves finding relationships between pairs of numbers, and then applying those relationships to solve the missing number. In this guide, we provide practice questions, detailed solutions and a mock test to help you ace this topic.

• Number analogy questions test your ability to identify logical links (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, combination) between numbers.
• This topic appears frequently in MAT sections and can help you secure quick marks.
• Practising variations of number analogy improves both accuracy and speed — critical in the NMMS exam setting.

What You Get in This Module

• Targeted practice: 30+ number-analogy questions aligned to NMMS MAT difficulty for Class 8.
• Solved examples: Step-by-step explanations of how to identify patterns and apply them.
• Timed mock: A full section simulation to build exam readiness.
• Performance analytics: See your weak analogy types (e.g., ratio-based, difference-based, mixed operations) and focus practice accordingly.

How to Use This Effectively

1. Begin with the solved examples—understand how relationships are formed.
2. Attempt the practice questions under timed conditions (e.g., 20 questions in 12 minutes).
3. After practising, review mistakes: Was the pattern addition? multiplication? mixed?
4. Maintain a log of the analogy types you struggle with.
5. In the last 2 weeks before the exam, repeat the mock test under full-exam conditions.

Tips & Trick for Solving Number Analogy

• Identify the relationship: Check if it’s “×” then “+”, or “+” then “×”, or “a²+b”, etc.
• Check position-wise pairs: e.g., in pair (8 : 16), see if “×2” or “+8” applies.
• Don’t assume simple operations only: Some analogies use combination like “(a+b)²” or “a³-b”.
• Watch for symmetry: For example pair A : B :: C : D means same relation from A→B as C→D.
• Skip quickly if pattern hard: Mark and return later — speed matters.
• Practice all types: Difference-based, ratio-based, square/cube based, mixed-operation.

Sample Questions

Here are some quick warm-up questions:

1. 5 : 20 :: 7 : ?
2. 12 : 144 :: 15 : ?
3. 9 : 27 :: 10 : ?
