Question:

Select the option in which the numbers are NOT related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.

(7, 21, 49)

Options:

(9, 27, 72)

(6, 18, 36)

(5, 15, 25)

(8, 24, 64)

Correct Answer:

(9, 27, 72)

Explanation:

(7, 21, 49)

The logic followed here is :

As

7 × 3 = 21 and 7 × 7 = 49

Checking in all options

(9, 27, 72) ⇒ 9 × 3 = 27 and 9 × 9 = 81≠72

(6, 18, 36) ⇒ 6 × 3 = 18 and 6 × 6 = 36

(5, 15, 25) ⇒ 5 × 3 = 15 and 5 × 5 = 25

(8, 24, 64) ⇒ 8 × 3 = 21 and 8 × 8 = 64
