Question Details

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 its 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.)


(3, 12, 26)

(7, 9, 53)

Options

A

(4, 9, 16)

B

(12, 4, 114)

C

(7, 5, 25)

D

(5, 15, 45)

Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option C

(7, 5, 25)

Solution :

The correct option is (7, 5, 25).

Logic/Pattern:

In each set of three numbers (A, B, C), the third number is obtained by subtracting 10 from the product of the first two numbers.

C=(A×B)-10

Let's verify this pattern with the given sets:

1. First set: (3, 12, 26)

(3×12)-10=36-10=26

2. Second set: (7, 9, 53)

(7×9)-10=63-10=53

Now, let's test the given options to find which one follows the exact same pattern:

Option 1: (4, 9, 16)
(4×9)-10=36-10=2616
(Incorrect)

Option 2: (12, 4, 114)
(12×4)-10=48-10=38114
(Incorrect)

Option 3: (7, 5, 25)
(7×5)-10=35-10=25
(Correct)

Option 4: (5, 15, 45)
(5×15)-10=75-10=6545
(Incorrect)

Hence, (7, 5, 25) is the set that follows the same relationship.
