SSC CHSL - 6 Aug 2021 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q79

Select the option in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.

(15, 7, 252)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. (12, 16, 372).

The logic used here is:

(15, 7, 252)

(152 + 72) - (15 + 7) = (225 + 49) - (22) = 274 - 22 = 252

Similarly,

(12, 16, 372)

(122 + 162) - (12 + 16) = (144 + 256) - (28) = 400 - 28 = 372

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
