Correct Answer: 7 : 15 : 49
Solution : Let's check the given options – First option: (11 : 21 : 121)→11 + (11 – 1) = 11 + 10 = 21; 11 2 = 121 Second option: (2 : 3 : 4)→2 + (2 – 1) = 2 + 1 = 3; 2 2 = 4 Third option: (7 : 15 : 49)→7 + (7 – 1) = 7 + 6 = 13 ≠ 15; 7 2 = 49 Fourth option: (9 : 17 : 81)→9 + (9 – 1) = 9 + 8 = 17; 9 2 = 81
Therefore, only the third option does not follow the pattern of the others. Hence, the third option is correct.
