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.)
(5, 25, 50)
(8, 64, 128)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. (12, 144, 288).
(5, 25, 50) → 52 = 25; 25 × 2 = 50
(8, 64, 128) → 82 = 64; 64 × 2 = 128
Similarly, (12, 144, 288) → 122 = 144; 144 × 2 = 288
