Question

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as the numbers of the following set.
(9, 83, 164)
(4, 18, 34)
(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.)​​

A.

(5, 27, 56)

B.

(6, 38, 74)

C.

(11, 122, 242)

D.

(13, 167, 334)

Correct option is B

​​Given:
(9, 83, 164)
(4, 18, 34)
Logic:  
2nd number = (1st number)² + 2
3rd number = (2nd number × 2) − 2
(9, 83, 164)
9² + 2 = 81 + 2 = 83 
83 × 2 − 2 = 166 − 2 = 164 
(4, 18, 34)
4² + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18 
18 × 2 − 2 = 36 − 2 = 34 
Options:
A) (5, 27, 56)
5² + 2 = 25 + 2 = 27 
27 × 2 − 2 = 54 − 2 = 52 ≠ 56
B) (6, 38, 74) (Follows)
6² + 2 = 36 + 2 = 38 
38 × 2 − 2 = 76 − 2 = 74 
C) (11, 122, 242)
11² + 2 = 121 + 2 = 123 ≠ 122
D) (13, 167, 334)
13² + 2 = 169 + 2 = 171 167
Thus, correct option is (b).
