Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.
(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)
(44, 63, 98)
(59, 99, 149)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (81, 15, 87).
Here the logic is (First Number + Second Number) = Third Number + 9
⇒ (44, 63, 98)
44 + 63 = 98 + 9
107 = 107
⇒ (59, 99, 149)
59 + 99 = 149 + 9
158 = 158
Similarly,
⇒ (81, 15, 87)
81 + 15 = 87 + 9
96 = 96
Hence, (81, 15, 87) is the correct answer.
