Correct Answer: (32.5, 37.0, 43.5)


Solution : Given:
(10.5, 15.0, 21.5) 

Here, add 4.5 to the first number to obtain the second number, and then add 6.5 to the second number to obtain the third number –
10.5 + 4.5 = 15.0; 15.0 + 6.5 = 21.5
Let's check the options –
First option: (32.5, 37.0, 43.5); 32.5 + 4.5 = 37.0; 37.0 + 6.5 = 43.5
Second option: (54.4, 58.0, 62.4); 54.4 + 4.5 = 58.9 ≠ 58.0; 58.0 + 6.5 = 64.5 ≠ 62.4
Third option: (62.2, 66.8, 73.3); 62.2 + 4.5 = 66.7 ≠ 66.8; 66.8 + 6.5 = 73.3
Fourth option: (81.3, 85.8, 92.0); 81.3 + 4.5 = 85.8; 85.8 + 6.5 = 92.3 ≠ 92.0

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