12 : 144 :: ?

This question was previously asked in
SSC CGL 2016 (Tier 1) Previous Year Question Paper (11-Sep-2016) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

20 : 400

This is an analogy based on squaring numbers. In the pair 12 : 144, 144 is the square of 12: \( 12^2 = 144 \).
Applying the same logic, \( 20^2 = 400 \), so the correct pair is 20 : 400.
Hence, the correct answer is 3) 20 : 400.
