Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related similarly to the numbers of the following set.
(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.)
(23, 14, 9)
(37, 19, 18)
Option 1: (125, 25, 5)
Option 2: (125, 100, 5)
Option 3: (125, 25, 100)
Option 4: (125, 5, 25)
Correct Answer: (125, 25, 100)
Solution :
Given:
(23, 14, 9); (37, 19, 18)
Here, (23, 14, 9)→14 + 9 = 23
(37, 19, 18)→19 + 18 = 37
Let's check the options –
First option:
(125, 25, 5)→25 + 5 = 30 ≠ 125
Second option:
(125, 100, 5)→100 + 5 = 105 ≠ 125
Third option:
(125, 25, 100)→25 + 100 = 125
Fourth option:
(125, 5, 25)→5 + 25 = 30 ≠ 125
So, only the third option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the third option is correct.
