SSC CHSL - 09 March 2023 - Shift 4 • Reasoning • Q98

Select the option in which the numbers share the same relationship in the set as that shared by the numbers in the given 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.)
(18, 69, 279)
(12, 45, 183)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3, i.e., (32, 125, 503).

(18, 69, 279) → 18 ×\times 4 = 72, 69 ×\times 3 = 207

72 + 207 = 279
(12, 45, 183) → 12 ×\times 4 = 48, 45 ×\times 3 = 135

48 + 135 = 183

Similarly, (32, 125, 503) → 32 ×\times 4 = 128, 125 ×\times 3 = 375

128 + 375 = 503
