Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the given sets.
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their constituent digits. E.g. 13 - operations on 13 such as adding/subtracting/multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)

Correct Answer: (13, 162, 331)
Solution :
Given:
(11, 100, 221); (14, 104, 300)
In the given set of numbers, add the second number to the square of the first number to get the second number –
(11, 100, 221)→11
2
+ 100 = 121 + 100 = 221
(14, 104, 300)→14
2
+ 104 = 196 + 104 = 300
Let's check each option –
First option:
(15, 175, 390)→15
2
+ 175 = 225 + 175 = 400 ≠ 390
Second option:
(17, 131, 410)→17
2
+ 131 = 289 + 131 = 420 ≠ 410
Third option:
(19, 121, 445)→19
2
+ 121 = 361 + 121 = 482 ≠ 445
Fourth option:
(13, 162, 331)→13
2
+ 162 = 169 + 162 = 331
So, only the fourth option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
