SSC Stenographer 2022 PYQ — Question 192

SSC Stenographer - 18 Nov 2022 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q192

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.)

(13, 52, 91) (19, 76, 133)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. (17, 68, 119).

The logic used here is:

(13, 52, 91)

91 - 52 = 39

39 ÷ 3 = 13

(19, 76, 133)

133 - 76 = 57

57 ÷ 3 = 19

Similarly,

(17, 68, 119)

119 - 68 = 51

51 ÷ 3 = 17

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
