(21, 3 , 15)

(49, 7, 35)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (84, 12, 60).

Logic: Second number × 5 = Third number and Second number × 7 = First number.

As, (21, 3 , 15)

3 × 5 = 15

3 × 7 = 21

And, (49, 7, 35)

7 × 5 =35

7 × 7 = 49

Similarly, (84, 12,60) 

12 × 5 = 60

12 × 7 = 84.
