SSC CGL 2023 (Tier-II) Paper 1 Previous Year Paper (26-Oct-2023) (Shift-1)
The correct answer is

9


The logic followed here is as follows:

The number of letters in the given word, squared.

'DUST' is written as 16.

Number of letters in the word DUST = 4 → 4² = 16

And

'EARTH' is written as 25.

Number of letters in the word EARTH = 5 → 5² = 25

Similarly,

'MAN' will be written as follows:

Number of letters in the word MAN = 3 → 3² = 9

Therefore, the correct answer is "9".
