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)
(8, 44, 3)
(12, 60, 3)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (12, 68, 5)
The logic used here is:
(8, 44, 3) = 8 + 3 = 11, 11 × 4 = 44
(12, 60, 3) = 12 + 3 = 15, 15 × 4 = 60
Similarly,
(12, 68, 5) = 12 + 5 = 17, 17 × 4 = 68
