Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following set.

(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)

(85, 24, 133) (97, 36, 145)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (79, 18, 127)

The logic used here is:

(85, 24, 133) = 85 - 24 = 61, 133 - 24 = 109

(97, 36, 145) = 97 - 36 = 61, 145 - 36 = 109

Similarly,

(79, 18, 127) = 79 - 18 = 61, 127 - 18 = 109
