SSC Stenographer - 18 Nov 2022 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q165

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)

(75, 55, 70) (65, 55, 68)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

 The correct answer is option 2 i.e. (95, 85, 104).

The logic used here is:

(75, 55, 70)

= (70 - 55) × 5

= 75

(65, 55, 68)

= (68 - 55) × 5

= 65

Similarly,

(95, 85, 104)

= (104 - 85) × 5

= 95

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
