Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.
(59, 246, 23)
(68, 300, 32)
(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.)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. (42, 213, 29).
Logic: (1st number + 2nd number) × 3 = 3rd number
(59, 246, 23) → (59 + 23) × 3 = 82 × 3 = 246
(68, 300, 32) → (68 + 32) × 3 = 100 × 3 = 300
Similarly, (42, 213, 29) → (42 + 29) × 3 = 71 × 3 = 213
