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)
(42, 18, 3)
(36, 14, 4)
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 1
(42, 18, 3)
(36, 14, 4)
The logic followed here is :
(second number + Third number) × 2 = Ist number
As
(18 + 3) × 2 = 42
(14 + 4) × 2 = 36
Same as
(34, 13, 4)
(13 + 4) × 2 = 34
