Question

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

(24, 10, 392)

1. (26, 12, 369)
2. (27, 15, 480)
3. (29, 18, 242)
4. (21, 18, 234)

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : (29, 18, 242)

The logic followed here is:

(1st number - 2nd number)² × 2 = 3rd number

For (24, 10, 392):

(24 - 10)² × 2 = 14² × 2 = 196 × 2 = 392

Option 1: (26, 12, 369)

(26 - 12)² × 2 = 14² × 2 = 196 × 2 = 392 ≠ 369

Option 2: (27, 15, 480)

(27 - 15)² × 2 = 12² × 2 = 144 × 2 = 288 ≠ 480

Option 3: (29, 18, 242)

(29 - 18)² × 2 =11² × 2 = 121 × 2 = 242

Option 4: (21, 18, 234)

(21 - 18)² × 2 = 3² × 2 = 9 × 2 = 18 ≠ 234

Hence, the correct answer is "Option 3".
