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.)
(13, 14, 54)
(15, 18, 66)
Option 1: (11, 13, 52)
Option 2: (15, 17, 66)
Option 3: (13, 19, 64)
Option 4: (12, 34, 90)
Correct Answer: (13, 19, 64)
Solution :
Given:
(13, 14, 54); (15, 18, 66)
Like, (13, 14, 54)→(13 + 14) × 2 = 27 × 2 = 54
(15, 18, 66)→(15 + 18) × 2 = 33 × 2 = 66
Let's check the options –
First option:
(11, 13, 52)→(11 + 13) × 2 = 24 × 2 = 48 ≠ 52
Second option:
(15, 17, 66)→(15 + 17) × 2 = 32 × 2 = 64 ≠ 66
Third option:
(13, 19, 64)→(13 + 19) × 2 = 32 × 2 = 64
Fourth option:
(12, 34, 90)→(12 + 34) × 2 = 46 × 2 = 92 ≠ 90
So, only the third option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the third option is correct.
