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 /deleting /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.)
(18, 39, 60) (27, 48, 69)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. (35, 56, 77).
The logic used here is:
(18, 39, 60)
18 + 60 = 78
78 ÷ 2 = 39
(27, 48, 69)
27 + 69 = 96
96 ÷ 2 = 48
Similarly;
(35, 56, 77)
35 + 56 = 112
112 ÷ 2 = 56
Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
