(17, 126, 7)

(31, 286, 9)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. (36, 223, 6).

Logic: Second Number = (First Number × Third Number) + 7

(17, 126, 7) → (17 × 7) + 7 → 119 + 7 = 126

(31, 286, 9) → (31 × 9) + 7 → 279 + 7 = 286

Similarly, (36, 223, 6) → (36 × 6) + 7 → 216 + 7 = 223
