Correct Answer: 134


Solution : Multiply the sum of the first and second numbers by 3 and then subtract the result from the first number –
Row I: {(14 + 23) × 3} – 14 = 111 – 14 = 97
Row II: {(22 + 41) × 3} – 22 = 189 – 22 = 167
Similarly, in Row III: {(31 + 24) × 3} – 31 = 165 – 31 = 134

So, the missing number is 134. Hence, the third option is correct.
