Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.
(189, 148, 107)
(206, 165, 124)
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its 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)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. (108, 67, 26).
Logic: [(First number - Second number) = (Second number - Third number)]
As given,
(189, 148, 107) ⇒ [(189 - 148) = (148 - 107)] ⇒ [41 = 41]
(206, 165, 124) ⇒ [(206 - 165) = (165 - 124)] ⇒ [41 = 41]
Similarly,
(108, 67, 26) ⇒ [(108 - 67) = (67 - 26)] ⇒ [41 = 41]
Hence, the correct answer is (108, 67, 26).
