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.)
(56 - 26 - 60) and (19 - 8 - 22)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 86 - 36 - 100
The logic used here is:
56 - 26 - 60 = (56 - 26) × 2 = 30 × 2 =60
19 - 8 - 22 = (19 - 8) × 2 = 11 × 2 = 22
Similarly,
86 - 36 - 100 = (86 - 36) × 2 = 50 × 2 = 100
