Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following sets.
(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)
(11, 33, 17) (18, 44, 21)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. (16, 43, 22)
The logic used here is:
(11, 33, 17) = 11 + 17 = 28, 28 + 5 = 33
(18, 44, 21) = 18 + 21 = 39, 39 + 5 = 44
Similarly,
(16, 43, 22) = 16 + 22 = 38, 38 + 5 = 43
