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)
(17, 136, 40) (11, 198, 90)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (12, 108, 45).
The logic used here is: Second number ÷ First Number = Resultant number × 5 = Third number
(17, 136, 40)
136 ÷ 17 = 8 ; 8 × 5 = 40
(11, 198, 90)
198 ÷ 11 = 18 ; 18 × 5 = 90
Similarly,
(12, 108, 45)
108 ÷ 12 = 9 ; 9 × 5 = 45
Hence, the correct answer is (12, 108, 45).
