Correct Answer: (14, 64, 2)
Solution :
Given:
(21, 225, 9); (12, 49, 2)
Find the square of half of the sum of the first and third numbers to obtain the second number –
⇒ (21, 225, 9)→21 + 9 = 30; (30 ÷ 2)
2
= 225
⇒ (12, 49, 2)→12 + 2 = 14; (14 ÷ 2)
2
= 49
Let's check the options –
First option:
(14, 64, 2)→14 + 2 = 16; (16 ÷ 2)
2
= 64
Second option:
(11, 18, 7)→11 + 7 = 18; (18 ÷ 2)
2
= 81 ≠ 18
Third option:
(15, 54, 3)→15 + 3 = 18; (18 ÷ 2)
2
= 81 ≠ 54
Fourth option:
(13, 81, 6)→13 + 6 = 19; (19 ÷ 2)
2
= 90.25 ≠ 81
So, only the first option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the first option is correct.
