Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. (114, 82, 60).

Understanding

(143, 110, 88)

The pattern here is, 143 - 110 = 33, 110 - 88 = 22.

Option 1) (123, 90, 68) = 123 - 90 = 33, 90 - 68 = 22

Option 2) (69, 36, 14) = 69 - 36 = 33, 36 - 14 = 22

Option 3) (61, 28, 6) = 61 - 28 = 33, 28 - 6 = 22

Option 4) (114, 82, 60) = 114 - 82 = 32, 82 - 60 = 22.

Option 4 is NOT related in the same way as are the numbers in the given set.

Hence, the correct answer is option 4.
