(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. For 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.)

(24, 3, 10)

(144, 9, 18)

 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. (133, 7, 21).

 

The logic used here is:

Third number = (First Number ÷ Second Number) + 2

Given,

(24, 3, 10)

⇒ (24 ÷ 3) + 2 = 8 + 2 = 10

(144, 9, 18)

⇒ (144 ÷ 9) + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18

Similarly, Follows the same pattern

(133, 7, 21)

⇒ (133 ÷ 7) + 2 = 19 + 2 = 21

Hence, the correct answer is (133, 7, 21).
