Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding /deleting /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)
(12, 36, 6) (18, 54, 9)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. (28, 84, 14).
Logic: 3rd number × 2 = 1st number, 1st number × 3 = 2nd number
(12, 36, 6) ⇒ 6 × 2 = 12, 12 × 3 = 36
(18, 54, 9) ⇒ 9 × 2 = 18, 18 × 3 = 54
Similarly,
(28, 84,14) ⇒ 14 × 2 = 28, 28 × 3 = 84
