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)

(8, 12, 6)

(9, 18, 8)

Options:

(4, 12, 6)

(12, 24, 8)

(7, 24, 4)

(9, 10, 11)

Correct Answer:

(12, 24, 8)

Explanation:

(8, 12, 6)

(9, 18, 8)

The logic followed here is :

(Ist number ×  IIIrd number)  ÷ 4  = second number

as

(8 × 6)  ÷ 4  = 12

(9 × 8)  ÷ 4  = 18

same as with (12, 24, 8)

(12 × 8)  ÷ 4  = 24
