Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. (25, 14, 53).

Logic: 1st number + 2nd number × 2 = = 3rd number

(34, 15, 64) → 34 + 15 × 2 = 34 + 30 = 64

(29, 17, 63) → 29 + 17 × 2 = 29 + 34 = 63

Similarly, (25, 14, 53) → 25 + 14 × 2 = 25 + 28 = 53
