Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following sets.
(8, 4, 1); (12, 4, 5)
Option 1: (44, 20, 20)
Option 2: (20, 2, 12)
Option 3: (17, 8, 6)
Option 4: (33, 10, 21)
Correct Answer: (17, 8, 6)
Solution :
Given:
(8, 4, 1); (12, 4, 5)
Like, (8, 4, 1)→(4 + 1) + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8
(12, 4, 5)→(4 + 5) + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12
Let's check the options –
First option:
(44, 20, 20)→(20 + 20) + 3 = 40 + 3 = 43 ≠ 44
Second option:
(20, 2, 12)→(2 + 12) + 3 = 14 + 3 = 17 ≠ 20
Third option:
(17, 8, 6)→(8 + 6) + 3 = 14 + 3 = 17
Fourth option:
(33, 10, 21)→(10 + 21) + 3 = 31 + 3 = 34 ≠ 33
So, only the third option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the third option is correct.
