SSC CHSL - 15 April 2021 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q80

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

{9, 21, 16}

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. {36, 42, 64}.

The logic used here is:

{9, 21, 16}

√9 = 3

√16 = 4

(3 + 4) × 3 = 21

Option 1: {36, 42, 64}

√36 = 6

√64 = 8

(6 + 8) × 3 = 42

This follows the logic.

So, there is no need to check further options.

Hence, the correct answer is {36, 42, 64}.
