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.)
(60, 15, 40)
(100, 50, 20)
Option 1: (200, 40, 50)
Option 2: (12, 45, 89)
Option 3: (10, 5, 30)
Option 4: (40, 8, 10)
Correct Answer: (200, 40, 50)
Solution :
Given:
(60, 15, 40); (100, 50, 20)
The pattern is as follows –
(60, 15, 40)→15 × 40 = 600; 60 × 10 = 600
(100, 50, 20)→50 × 20 = 1000; 100 × 10 = 1000
Let's check the options –
First option:
(200, 40, 50)→40 × 50 = 2000; 200 × 10 = 2000
Second option:
(12, 45, 89)→89 × 45 = 4005; 12 × 10 = 120 ≠ 4005
Third option:
(10, 5, 30)→5 × 30 = 150; 10 × 10 = 100 ≠ 150
Fourth option:
(40, 8, 10)→8 × 10 = 80; 40 × 10 = 400 ≠ 80
So, only the first option follows the same pattern as followed by the given set of numbers. Hence, the first option is correct.
