Question

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the given 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 /deleting /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)
(100, 30, 10)
(250, 60, 70)

(700, 220, 40)

(240, 187, 104)

(209, 122, 109)

(310, 198, 30)

Solution

Correct option is A

To solve this problem, we need to identify the relationship between the numbers in the given sets and then find the set among the options that follows the same relationship.
Let's analyze the given sets:
1. Set 1: (100, 30, 10)
2. Set 2: (250, 60, 70)
Let's identify a common relationship:
For Set 1: (100, 30, 10) - Operation: 30 × 3 + 10 = 90 + 10 = 100
For Set 2: (250, 60, 70)- Operation: 60 × 3 + 70 = 180 + 70 = 250
Logic: (2nd number × 3 + 3rd number) 1st number
By applying the logic in each option, we get,
Option (a) (700, 220, 40) – Operation: 220 × 3 + 40 = 660 + 40 = 700
Option (b) (240, 187, 104) - Operation: 187 × 3 + 104 = 561 + 104 = 665 ≠ 240
Option (c) (209, 122, 109) - Operation: 122 × 3 + 109 = 366 + 109 = 475 ≠ 209
Option (d) (310, 198, 30) - Operation: 198 × 3 + 30 = 594 + 30 = 624 ≠ 310
Correct answer is (a) (700, 220, 40).
