Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (12, 22, 46)

Understanding Application

Pattern:

(n, 2n - 2, 4n - 2)

(10, 18, 38)

18 = 2 × 10 – 2 

38 = 4 × 10 – 2

Similarly, for (12, 22, 46):

22 = 2 × 12 – 2 

46 = 4 × 12 – 2

Hence, (12, 22, 46) is the correct answer.
