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/ 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).

[(79),(3139)],[(35),(1523)]{[(\frac{7}{9}), (\frac{31}{39})],[(\frac{3}{5}),(\frac{15}{23})]}

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. [(1113),(4755)][(\frac{11}{13}), (\frac{47}{55})].

The logic followed here is:

  • Numerator × 4 + 3 = Numerator of next fraction

  • Denominator  × 4 + 3 = Denominator of next fraction

7 × 4 + 3 = 31; 9 × 4 + 3 = 39

3 × 4 + 3 = 15; 5 × 4 + 3 = 23

Similarly,

11 × 4 + 3 = 47; 13 × 4 + 3 = 55
