(48, 8, 12)
(42, 6, 14)

Options:

(88, 22, 4)

(62, 12, 2)

(44, 22, 4)

(36, 18, 2)

Correct Answer:

(44, 22, 4)

Explanation:

(48, 8, 12)
(42, 6, 14)

The logic followed here is :

(second number × IIIrd number) ÷ 2 = Ist number
as

(8 × 12) ÷ 2 = 48

(6 × 14) ÷ 2 = 42

Therefore (44, 22, 4)

(22 × 4) ÷ 2 = 44
