Question:

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.)

(27, 21, 16)

(24, 33, 19)

Options:

(25, 21, 13)

(36, 15, 17)

(42, 18, 21)

(32, 14, 7)

Correct Answer:

(36, 15, 17)

Explanation:

(27, 21, 16)

(24, 33, 19)

The logic followed here is :

(Ist number + second number) ÷ 3 = IIIrd number

As

(27 + 21) ÷ 3 = 16

(24 + 33) ÷ 3 = 19

Same as in option (36, 15, 17)

(36 + 15 ) ÷ 3 = 17
