SSC CPO - 9 Nov 2022 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q191

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.)

(111, 208, 313) (36, 12, 42)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. (28, 51, 73).

The logic used here is:

(111, 208, 313)

111 + 208 = 319

319 - 6 = 313

(36, 12, 42)

36 + 12 = 48

48 - 6 = 42

Similarly;

(28, 51, 73)

28 + 51 = 79

79 - 6 = 73

Hence, (28, 51, 73) is the correct answer.
