Correct Answer: (29, 17, 37)


Solution : Given:
(31, 19, 41)→The set of numbers comprising 31, 19, and 41 are all prime numbers, which means that they are only divisible by 1 and themselves.

Let's check the options –
First option: 16, 27, 11; Both 16 and 27 are composite numbers, meaning they have factors other than 1 and themselves. On the other hand, 11 is a prime number, which means it can only be divided by 1 and itself.
Second option: 23, 33, 51; Both 33 and 51 are composite numbers, meaning they have factors other than 1 and themselves. On the other hand, 23 is a prime number, which means it can only be divided by 1 and itself.
Third option: 27, 29, 47; Both 27 and 29 are composite numbers, meaning they have factors other than 1 and themselves. On the other hand, 47 is a prime number, which means it can only be divided by 1 and itself.
Fourth option: 29, 17, 37; The set of numbers comprising 29, 17, and 37 are all prime numbers, which means that they are only divisible by 1 and themselves.

So, only the fourth option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
