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)
(4, 12, 2)
(7, 42, 14)
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
(4, 12, 2)
(7, 42, 14)
The logic followed here is :
(Ist number + IIIrd number )× 2 = Second number
as
(4 + 2) × 2 = 12
(7 + 14) × 2 = 42
same as in (9, 26, 4)
(9 + 4) × 2 = 26
