Worked practice questions

In analogy questions, the symbol '::' between two pairs means

  1. Both pairs share the same kind of relationship
  2. Both pairs are equal in numerical value
  3. Both pairs add up to the same result

So option A is correct. _Source: SSC Stenographer Study Material, Chapter on Analogy (jkchrome.com, Mistral OCR'd PDF), section on Types of Analogy_
