Select the triad in which the numbers are related to each other in the same way as the numbers in the following triads.
16-40-100
8-20-50
(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.)
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 24-60-150.
16-40-100 ⇒ (16 × 2.5) = 40, (40 × 2.5) = 100
8-20-50 ⇒ (8 × 2.5) = 20, (20 × 2.5) = 50
Similarly, 24-60-150 ⇒ (24 × 2.5) = 60, (60 × 2.5) = 150
