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 their 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.)
(20, 46, 2)
(32, 136, 24)
The correct answer is
(6, 42, 10)
Find the pattern:
(20, 46, 2)
20 × 2 = 40 → 40 + (2 × 3) = 46
(32, 136, 24)
32 × 2 = 64 → 64 + (24 × 3) = 64 + 72 = 136
So rule:
second = (first × 2) + (third × 3)
Check option: (6, 42, 10)
6 × 2 = 12 → 12 + (10 × 3) = 12 + 30 = 42 ✅
Correct Answer: (6, 42, 10)
