Correct option is A
Given Sets:
1. (6, 20, 26)
Let’s try the logic:
6 × 3 + 2 = 18 + 2 = 20
20 + 6 = 26
2. (4, 14, 20)
4 × 3 + 2 = 12 + 2 = 14
14 + 6 = 20
Confirmed Pattern:
Second = First × 3 + 2
Third = Second + 6
Now apply this logic to each option.
Option (A): (5, 17, 23)
5 × 3 + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17
17 + 6 = 23
Matches the pattern
Option (B): (8, 22, 28)
8 × 3 + 2 = 24 + 2 = 26
→ 22 ≠ 26 →
Option (C): (9, 29, 23)
9 × 3 + 2 = 27 + 2 = 29
29 + 6 = 35, not 23
Option (D): (12, 34, 40)
12 × 3 + 2 = 36 + 2 = 38
→ 34 ≠ 38 →
Final Answer: (A) (5, 17, 23)
