Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are 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, 38, 11)
(3, 20, 7)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (1, 26, 12).
(8, 38, 11) → (8 + 11) × 2 = 38
(3, 20, 7) → (3 + 7) × 2 = 20
Similarly, (1, 26, 12) → (1 + 12) × 2 = 26
