Question:

Select the option in which the numbers do NOT share the same relationship as that shared by the given pair of numbers.

(23, 115, 207)

Options:

(8, 35, 72)

(6, 30, 54)

(16, 80, 144)

(21, 105, 189)

Correct Answer:

(8, 35, 72)

Explanation:

(23, 115, 207)

The logic followed here is:

Ist number × 5 = IInd number and Ist number × 9 = IIIrd number

As

23 × 5 = 115 and 23 × 9 = 207

Similarly

(8, 35, 72) = 8 × 5 = 40 ≠ 35 and 23 × 9 = 207 (odd)

(6, 30, 54) = 6 × 5 = 30 and 6 × 9 = 54

(16, 80, 144) = 16 × 5 = 80 and 16 × 9 = 144

(21, 105, 189)= 21 × 5 = 105 and 21 × 9 = 189
