Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. (22, 45, 91)

Logic: First number × 2 + 1 = Second number; Second number × 2 + 1 = Third number

(16, 33, 67): (16 × 2)  + 1 = 33; (33 × 2) + 1 = 67

(19, 39, 79): (19 × 2) +1 = 39; (39 × 2) + 1 = 79

Similarly, (22, 45, 91): (22 × 2) + 1= 45; (45 × 2) + 1 = 91
