The missing number in the analogy is 14.
In a proportion, the cross-products are equal, so if we set up the proportion as:
85:27 :: 42:x
We can find the value of x by cross-multiplying and simplifying:
85x = 2742
x = 14.
So the missing number in the analogy is 14.
- A number analogy is a type of logic problem that involves finding the missing value in a proportion or a pattern. The problem is usually presented in the form of a statement such as "A:B :: C:D" or "A is to B as C is to D", where A, B, C, and D are numbers. The goal is to find the value of D, or the missing number in the analogy.
- The solution to the problem requires understanding the relationship between the numbers A and B, and the relationship between C and D. The relationship between the numbers is usually given in the form of a proportion, and the key to solving the problem is to use the proportion to find the missing number.
