    Question

    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.)
    (6, 20, 26)
    (4, 14, 20)

    A.

    (5, 17,23)

    B.

    (8, 22, 28)

    C.

    (9, 29, 23)

    D.

    (12, 34, 40)

    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)
