Question : Directions: Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following sets. (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.)
(111, 208, 313)
(36, 12, 42)

Option 1: (41, 69, 107)

Option 2: (66, 92, 151)

Option 3: (120, 224, 342)

Correct Answer: (28, 51, 73)


Solution : Given:
(111, 208, 313); (36,12, 42)

Add the first and second numbers and subtract 6 from the resultant, to get the third number –
(111, 208, 313)→(111 + 208) – 6 = 319 – 6 = 313
(36,12, 42)→(36 + 12) – 6 = 48 – 6 = 42

Let's check each option –
First option: (41, 69,107)→(41 + 69) – 6 = 110 – 6 = 104 ≠ 107
Second option: (66,92,151)→(66 + 92) – 6 = 158 – 6 = 152 ≠ 151
Third option: (120, 224, 342)→(120 + 224) – 6 = 344 – 6 = 338 ≠ 342
Fourth option: (28, 51, 73)→(28 + 51) – 6 = 79 – 6 = 73

So, only the fourth option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
