Question

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.

(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)

(174, 14, 15)

(228, 24, 14)

The correct answer is
(384, 45, 19)

Number Set Pattern Analysis

The question requires identifying a consistent mathematical relationship between the three numbers in the given sets. The constraint is to perform operations on the whole numbers, not their individual digits.

Identifying the Pattern

Let the numbers in a set be represented as (A, B, C). We analyze the two provided examples:

  • Set 1: (174, 14, 15)
  • Set 2: (228, 24, 14)

We look for a relationship where A is derived from B and C.

Consider the sum of the second and third numbers (B + C):

  • For Set 1: 14 + 15 = 29
  • For Set 2: 24 + 14 = 38

Now, let's check if the first number (A) is a multiple of this sum:

  • For Set 1: 174 / 29 = 6
  • For Set 2: 228 / 38 = 6

The consistent relationship identified is: A = (B + C) * 6.

Applying the Pattern to Options

We test this pattern against the given options:

  • Option 1: (180, 17, 15)
    Calculation: (17 + 15) * 6 = 32 * 6 = 192. Does not match 180.
  • Option 2: (192, 20, 13)
    Calculation: (20 + 13) * 6 = 33 * 6 = 198. Does not match 192.
  • Option 3: (334, 16, 23)
    Calculation: (16 + 23) * 6 = 39 * 6 = 234. Does not match 334.
  • Option 4: (384, 45, 19)
    Calculation: (45 + 19) * 6 = 64 * 6 = 384. Matches the first number.

Conclusion

Option 4 follows the same pattern identified in the given sets, where the first number is equal to the sum of the second and third numbers multiplied by 6.
