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)

(28, 53, 78)

(34, 49, 64)

Options:

(46, 69, 71)

(22, 54, 66)

(38, 40, 42)

(54, 55, 27)

Correct Answer:

(38, 40, 42)

Explanation:

(28, 53, 78)

The logic followed here is :

Ist number +  25 = Second  number and Second number + 25 =  IIIrd number

28 +25 = 53  and 53 +28 = 78

(34, 49, 64)

The logic followed here is :

Ist number +15 = Second  number and Second number +15 =  IIIrd number

39 + 15 = 49 and 49 + 15 = 64

Therefore in option (38, 40, 42)

The logic followed here is :

Ist number +2 = Second  number and Second number + 2 =  IIIrd number

38 +2 = 40 and 40 +2 = 42
