(288, 144, 24)

(432, 216, 36)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e.(504, 252, 42)

Logic: Third number × 6 = Second number and Second number × 2 = First number.

As, (288, 144,24) 

24 × 6 = 144

144 × 2 = 288

And, (432, 216, 36) 

36 × 6 = 216

216 × 2 = 432

Similarly, (504, 252,42) 

42 × 6 = 252

252 × 2 = 504
