Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.
(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)
(23, 14, 9) (37, 19, 18)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. (125, 25, 100).
The logic used here is:
1st number - 2nd number = 3rd number
(23, 14, 9)
23 - 14 = 9
(37, 19, 18)
37 - 19 = 18
Option 1: (125, 25, 5)
125 - 25 = 100
This does not follow the logic.
Option 2: (125, 100, 5)
125 - 100 = 25
This does not follow the logic.
Option 3: (125, 25, 100)
125 - 25 = 100
This follows the logic.
Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
