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 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)

(40, 10, 150) (65, 35, 150)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. (55, 10, 225)

The logic used here is:

(40, 10, 150) = 40 - 10 = 30, 30 × 5 = 150

(65, 35, 150) = 65 - 35 = 30, 30 × 5 = 150

Similarly,

(55, 10, 225) = 55 - 10 = 45, 45 × 5 = 225
