Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given sets.
(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/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.)
(4, 12, 48)
(9, 27, 108)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. (13, 39, 156).
Logic: 1st number is multiplied by 3 to get 2nd number and 2nd number is multiplied by 4 to get 3rd number.
⇒ (4, 12, 48)
4 × 3 = 12 × 4 = 48
⇒ (9, 27, 108)
9 × 3 = 27 × 4 = 108
Similarly,
⇒ (13, 39, 156)
13 × 3 = 39 × 4 = 156.
