(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.)

(6, 12, 228)

(8, 3, 515)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. (4, 18, 82)

The logic used here is:

(6, 12, 228)

= 63 + 12 = 228

Similarly, (8, 3, 515) 

= 83 + 3 = 515

Let us check all the options.

1. (3, 28, 56)

= 33 + 28 = 55 ≠ 56

2. (13, 11, 172)

=  133 + 11 = 2208 ≠ 172

3. (4, 18, 82)

= 43 + 18 = 82 = 82

4. (9, 23, 119)

=  93 + 23 = 752 ≠ 119

Hence, (4, 18, 82) is the correct answer.
