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 their constituent digits. E.g. 13 - Operations on 13 such as adding to/subtracting from/multiplying with 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed.)

The correct answer is
(17, 68, 204)

Identifying the Number Relation Pattern

The question asks to find a set of numbers that follows the same relationship as the given sets: (29, 116, 348) and (22, 88, 264). We need to determine the operation linking the first number to the second, and the second to the third.

Analyzing the Given Sets

Let's examine the first set (29, 116, 348):

  • First number to second number: \(29 \times 4 = 116\)
  • Second number to third number: \(116 \times 3 = 348\)

Now, let's check the second set (22, 88, 264) to confirm the pattern:

  • First number to second number: \(22 \times 4 = 88\)
  • Second number to third number: \(88 \times 3 = 264\)

The pattern identified is: The second number is 4 times the first number, and the third number is 3 times the second number.

Evaluating the Options

We will now apply this pattern (Number 1 \(\times\) 4 = Number 2, and Number 2 \(\times\) 3 = Number 3) to each option:

  • Option 1: (26, 104, 332)
    • \(26 \times 4 = 104\) (Matches)
    • \(104 \times 3 = 312\) (Does not match 332)
  • Option 2: (17, 68, 204)
    • \(17 \times 4 = 68\) (Matches)
    • \(68 \times 3 = 204\) (Matches)
    This option follows the pattern.
  • Option 3: (15, 60, 120)
    • \(15 \times 4 = 60\) (Matches)
    • \(60 \times 3 = 180\) (Does not match 120)
  • Option 4: (21, 94, 252)
    • \(21 \times 4 = 84\) (Does not match 94)
    • \(94 \times 3 = 282\) (Does not match 252)

Conclusion

Option 2, (17, 68, 204), is the only set where the numbers follow the established pattern of multiplying by 4 and then by 3.
