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 /deleting /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.)

Correct Answer :

Option D

(15, 8, 120)

(15, 8, 120)

Solution :

To find the set that follows the same logic as the given sets, let us analyze the relationship between the numbers in each of the provided sets:
1. First set: (16,7,112)
2. Second set: (8,12,96)

Let the numbers in each set be represented as (A,B,C).
Let us examine the mathematical operation that relates the first two numbers A and B to the third number C.

For the first set:
A=16, B=7, C=112
Multiplying A and B:
16×7=112
Thus, the relationship is:
A×B=C

Let us verify this relationship with the second set:
A=8, B=12, C=96
Multiplying A and B:
8×12=96
The pattern holds true: the third number is the product of the first two numbers.

Now, let us test the given options to see which set satisfies this logic:

Option 1: (13,7,96)
Product of first two numbers: 13×7=91 (not equal to 96)

Option 2: (14,9,128)
Product of first two numbers: 14×9=126 (not equal to 128)

Option 3: (12,5,65)
Product of first two numbers: 12×5=60 (not equal to 65)

Option 4: (15,8,120)
Product of first two numbers: 15×8=120 (equal to 120)

Only the set (15,8,120) satisfies the relationship A×B=C.
Therefore, the correct option is (15,8,120).
