Abstract Reasoning Analogical Reasoning 2

Question 1

In a figure analogy, 1 large shape becomes 4 small shapes. Following this rule, 2 large shapes become:

Accepted Answer

8 small shapes

Answer

Each large shape is replaced by 4 small shapes (×4 rule), so 2 large shapes become 2×4=8 small shapes.

Question 2

A triangle with 1 interior dot pairs with a triangle with 3 interior dots. A square with 2 interior dots pairs with a square with how many interior dots?

Accepted Answer

6

Answer

The number of dots is tripled (1→3), so 2 dots become 2×3=6 dots.

Question 3

Shape A is twice as large as Shape B. Shape C is 6 cm wide. If the same proportional relationship holds, how wide is Shape D?

Accepted Answer

3 cm

Answer

Shape B is half the size of Shape A, so Shape D is half the size of Shape C: 6 ÷ 2 = 3 cm.

Question 4

In a number analogy common in abstract tests, the pattern is 2 : 4 :: 5 : ___. What completes this?

Accepted Answer

10

Answer

The rule doubles the number (2×2=4), so 5×2=10 completes the analogy.

Question 5

A figure shows 3 circles arranged in a row. Its analogous figure shows 3 squares in a column. If the next input is 4 triangles in a row, the analogy predicts:

Accepted Answer

4 triangles in a column

Answer

The rule changes the arrangement from row to column while keeping the same shape and count, so 4 triangles in a row become 4 triangles in a column.
