Question:

Select the option in which the numbers shares the same relationship in set as that shared by the numbers in the given set.(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)

(10, 22, 42)

(15, 14, 44)

Options:

(9, 22, 38)

(12, 12, 24)

(13, 12, 38)

(6, 3, 17)

Correct Answer:

(13, 12, 38)

Explanation:

(10, 22, 42)

(15, 14, 44)

The logic followed here is :

(second number - IIIrd number)  ÷ 2 = Ist number

as

(42 - 22) ÷ 2 = 10

(44 - 14) ÷ 2 = 15

same as in (13, 12, 38)

 (38 - 22) ÷ 2 = 13
