Question : Directions: 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.)
(13, 39, 6)
(9, 18, 4)
Option 1: (12, 48, 8)
Option 2: (12, 50, 13)
Option 3: (15, 45, 3)
Option 4: (20, 28, 8)
Correct Answer: (12, 48, 8)
Solution :
Given:
(13, 39, 6); (9, 18, 4)
Here, (13, 39, 6)→(6 ÷ 2) × 13 = 3 × 13 = 39
(9, 18, 4)→(4 ÷ 2) × 9 = 2 × 9 = 18
Let's check the options –
First option:
(12, 48, 8)→(8 ÷ 2) × 12 = 4 × 12 = 48
Second option:
(12, 50, 13)→(13 ÷ 2) × 12 = 6.5 × 12 = 78 ≠ 50
Third option:
(15, 45, 3)→(3 ÷ 2) × 15 = 1.5 × 15 = 22.5 ≠ 45
Fourth option:
(20, 28, 8)→(8 ÷ 2) × 20 = 4 × 20 = 80 ≠ 28
So, only the first option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the first option is correct.
