Question:

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given 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.)

(18, 36, 60)

(14, 28, 44)

Options:

(21, 42, 164)

(17, 32, 60)

(16, 28, 64)

(22, 44, 76)

Correct Answer:

(22, 44, 76)

Explanation:

(18, 36, 60)

(14, 28, 44)

The logic followed here is :

Ist number × 2    = second number  and (IInd number × 2) - 12= IIIrd number

as

18 × 2    = 36 and (36 × 2) - 12= 60

14 × 2    = 28 and (28 × 2) - 12= 44

same as in option (22, 44, 76)

22 × 2    = 44 and (44 × 2) - 12 = 76
