Question

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.
$$(7, 9, 48)$$
$$(6, 8, 42)$$
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding/deleting/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.)

Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following set.
$$(7, 9, 48)$$
$$(6, 8, 42)$$
(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13 – Operations on 13 such as adding/deleting/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.)

  1. (10, 12, 54)
  2. (9, 11, 56)
  3. (11, 13, 72) ✓ Correct
  4. (8, 10, 47)
Explanation:

Logic: The pattern followed in the given sets is: $$(First Number + Second Number) \times 3 = Third Number$$

Let's check the given sets:

  • For $(7, 9, 48)$: $$(7 + 9) \times 3 = 16 \times 3 = 48$$ (Correct)
  • For $(6, 8, 42)$: $$(6 + 8) \times 3 = 14 \times 3 = 42$$ (Correct)

Now, let's check the options:

  1. $(10, 12, 54) \rightarrow (10 + 12) \times 3 = 22 \times 3 = 66 \neq 54$
  2. $(9, 11, 56) \rightarrow (9 + 11) \times 3 = 20 \times 3 = 60 \neq 56$
  3. $(11, 13, 72) \rightarrow (11 + 13) \times 3 = 24 \times 3 = 72$ (Correct)
  4. $(8, 10, 47) \rightarrow (8 + 10) \times 3 = 18 \times 3 = 54 \neq 47$

Thus, the correct set is (11, 13, 72).

प्रश्न (हिंदी)

उस समुच्चय का चयन करें जिसमें संख्याएँ उसी प्रकार संबंधित हैं जैसे कि निम्नलिखित समुच्चय की संख्याएँ हैं।
$$(7, 9, 48)$$
$$(6, 8, 42)$$
(नोट: संक्रियाएं पूर्ण संख्याओं पर की जानी चाहिए, संख्याओं को उनके घटक अंकों में तोड़े बिना। उदाहरण के लिए 13 - 13 पर संक्रियाएं जैसे जोड़ना/हटाना/गुणा करना आदि किया जा सकता है। 13 को 1 और 3 में तोड़कर और फिर 1 और 3 पर गणितीय संक्रियाएं करने की अनुमति नहीं है।)

  1. (10, 12, 54)
  2. (9, 11, 56)
  3. (11, 13, 72)
  4. (8, 10, 47)
स्पष्टीकरण:

तर्क: दिए गए समुच्चयों में पालन किया गया पैटर्न इस प्रकार है: $$(पहली संख्या + दूसरी संख्या) \times 3 = तीसरी संख्या$$

आइए दिए गए समुच्चयों की जाँच करें:

  • $(7, 9, 48)$ के लिए: $$(7 + 9) \times 3 = 16 \times 3 = 48$$ (सही है)
  • $(6, 8, 42)$ के लिए: $$(6 + 8) \times 3 = 14 \times 3 = 42$$ (सही है)

अब, विकल्पों की जाँच करते हैं:

  1. $(10, 12, 54) \rightarrow (10 + 12) \times 3 = 22 \times 3 = 66 \neq 54$
  2. $(9, 11, 56) \rightarrow (9 + 11) \times 3 = 20 \times 3 = 60 \neq 56$
  3. $(11, 13, 72) \rightarrow (11 + 13) \times 3 = 24 \times 3 = 72$ (सही है)
  4. $(8, 10, 47) \rightarrow (8 + 10) \times 3 = 18 \times 3 = 54 \neq 47$

इस प्रकार, सही समुच्चय (11, 13, 72) है।
