    Question

    Select the option in which the numbers are not related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.

    68, 84, 42

    A (53, 56, 25) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B (72, 81, 54) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C (34, 35, 23) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D (39, 78, 24) Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The pattern followed here is: The sum of the first and second digits of the first number is multiplied by the sum of the first and second digits of the third number to obtain the second number. (68, 84, 42) → (6 + 8) X (4 + 2) = (14 X 6) = 84 (53, 35, 25) → (5 + 3) X (2 + 5) = (8 X 7) = 56 (72, 81, 54) → (7 + 2) X (5 + 4) = (9 X 9) = 81 (34, 35, 23) → (3 + 4) X (2 + 3) = (7 X 5) = 35 (39, 78, 24) → (3 + 9) X (2 + 4) = (12 X 6) = 72 Hence, option D is the answer as it does not follow the given pattern.
