Select the number set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.
(2, 6, 9)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. (4, 12, 18).
The logic used here is:
(2, 6, 9)
2 × 3 = 6
6 × 1.5 = 9
Option 1: (8, 12, 17)
8 × 3 = 24
24 × 1.5 = 36
This does not follow the logic.
Option 2: (5, 15, 30)
5 × 3 = 15
15 × 1.5 = 22.5
This does not follow the logic.
Option 3: (7, 22, 17)
7 × 3 = 21
21 × 1.5 = 31.5
This does not follow the logic.
Option 4: (4, 12, 18)
4 × 3 = 12
12 × 1.5 = 18
This follows the logic.
Hence, the correct answer is (4, 12, 18).
