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.)
(16, 7, 112)
(8, 12, 96)
Correct Answer :
(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:
2. Second set:
Let the numbers in each set be represented as .
Let us examine the mathematical operation that relates the first two numbers and to the third number .
For the first set:
, ,
Multiplying and :
Thus, the relationship is:
Let us verify this relationship with the second set:
, ,
Multiplying and :
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:
Product of first two numbers: (not equal to 96)
Option 2:
Product of first two numbers: (not equal to 128)
Option 3:
Product of first two numbers: (not equal to 65)
Option 4:
Product of first two numbers: (equal to 120)
Only the set satisfies the relationship .
Therefore, the correct option is .
