Is there a name for this format – 5:number :: k: ? ?
The question mark in the above poses a question. The answer is supposed to be found out by looking the relation of previous pair. In this case answer would be a letter.

Is there a name for this construction, if any?

One Answer

They were called analogy questions back when they were use on the SAT. My friends and I referred to them as is-to-as questions based on their verbal construction (the question would be read "five is to number as k is to blank")
