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)
(13, 150, 17)
(10, 130, 16)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. (8, 135, 19).
The logic used here is:
(13, 150, 17)
13 + 17 = 30
30 ÷ 2 = 15
150 ÷ 15 = 10
(10, 130, 16)
10 + 16 = 26
26 ÷ 2 = 13
130 ÷ 13 = 10
Similarly,
(8, 135, 19)
8 + 19 = 27
135 ÷ (27 ÷ 2) = 10
Hence, (8, 135, 19) is the correct answer.
