Question : Directions: Study the given pattern carefully and select the number that can replace the question mark (?) in it.
(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.)
(6, 4, 6)
(8, 6, ?)

Option 1: 8

Option 2: 14

Option 3: 4

Correct Answer: 6


Solution : Given:
(6, 4, 6); (8, 6, ?)

In the given set, subtract the first two numbers and then multiply the resultant by 3 to get the third number.
Like, (6, 4, 6)→6 – 4 = 2; 2 × 3 = 6
Similarly, follow the same pattern for (8, 6, ?)→8 – 6 = 2; 2 × 3 = 6

So, 6 is the missing number of the given set. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
