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.)

Correct Answer :

Option C

(140, 238, 98)

(140, 238, 98)

Solution :

The correct answer is (140, 238, 98).

To find the correct set, let us analyze the mathematical relationship between the numbers in the given sets: (136, 220, 84) and (144, 240, 96).

Let the three numbers in each set be represented as A, B, and C respectively.

For the first set (136, 220, 84):

A + C = 136 + 84 = 220 = B

For the second set (144, 240, 96):

A + C = 144 + 96 = 240 = B

The logical pattern followed here is:

First Number + Third Number = Second Number

Now, let us verify the options to see which set follows this relation:

1) (156, 210, 56):
156 + 56 = 212 210

2) (164, 254, 92):
164 + 92 = 256 254

3) (140, 238, 98):
140 + 98 = 238
This set satisfies the relation.

4) (152, 260, 88):
152 + 88 = 240 260

Therefore, the set that is related in the same way is (140, 238, 98).
