SSC CGL - 14 July 2023 - Shift 4 • Reasoning • Q78

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) 

(49, 63, 441) (7, 14, 14)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. (14, 28, 56)

The logic used here is:

(49, 63, 441) = 441 ÷ 63 = 7, 7 × 7 = 49

(7, 14, 14) = 14 ÷ 14 = 1, 1 × 7 = 7

Similarly;

(14, 28, 56) = 56 ÷ 28 = 2, 2 × 7 = 14
