Question : Directions: Select the option in which the numbers share the same relationship in the set as that shared by the numbers in the given 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.)

(20, 8, 56)

Option 1: (20, 16, 64)

Option 2: (12, 14, 54)

Correct Answer: (18, 12, 60)


Solution : Given:
(10, 6, 32); (20, 8, 56)

Multiply the sum of the first two numbers by 2, to get the third number –
(10, 6, 32)→(10 + 6) × 2 = 16 × 2 = 32
(20, 8, 56)→(20 + 8) × 2 = 28 × 2 = 56

Let’s check the options –
First option: (20, 16, 64)→(20 + 16) × 2 = 36 × 2 = 72 ≠ 64
Second option: (12, 14, 54)→(12 + 14) × 2 = 26 × 2 = 52 ≠ 54
Third option: (18, 12, 60)→(18 + 12) × 2 = 30 × 2 = 60
Fourth option: (14, 18, 60)→(14 + 18) × 2 = 32 × 2 = 64 ≠ 60

So, only the third option follows the same pattern as the given number pair. Hence, the third option is correct.
