Question

    Select the option in which the numbers are related in

    the same way as are the numbers in the given set. Given set: (150, 157, 178)
    A (23, 30, 51) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B (37, 44, 65) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C (42, 49, 72) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D (58, 65, 86) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Logic: (first number + 7) = middle number. Middle number + (7 × 3) = third number. So, 150 + 7 = 157; 157 + (7 × 3) = 178 Applying the same logic to the options: A) 23 + 7 = 30; 30 + (7 × 3) = 51 B) 37 + 7 = 44; 44 + (7 × 3) = 65 C) 42 + 7 = 49; 49 + (7 × 3) = 72 (Incorrect, should be 70) D) 58 + 7 = 65; 65 + (7 × 3) = 86
