Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are 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.)
(13,22,2)
(4,26,15)
Correct Answer :
(23,43,13)
Solution :
The correct option is (23, 43, 13).
To find the correct set, let us analyze the mathematical relationship between the numbers in the given sets:
Let the numbers in each set be represented as (, , ).
By observing the given sets, we can establish the following pattern:
In other words, the second number is obtained by adding the first and third numbers together, and then adding to the sum.
Let us verify this logic with the given sets:
First Set: (13, 22, 2)
Here, and .
Applying the pattern:
This matches the second number of the set.
Second Set: (4, 26, 15)
Here, and .
Applying the pattern:
This matches the second number of the set.
Now, let us test the options to find the one that follows the same logic:
Option 1: (23, 43, 13)
Here, and .
Applying the pattern:
Since matches the second number in the set, this option follows the same logic.
