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)
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
(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
