Set (4, 9, 18) — which set follows the same relationship? (A) (8, 14, 22) (B) (10, 15, 25) (C) (6, 12, 23) (D) (12, 17, 26)
- (8, 14, 22)
- (10, 15, 25)
- (6, 12, 23)
- (12, 17, 26)
Show answer and solution
Correct answer: D. (12, 17, 26)
1. Relationship in (4,9,18): 9 − 4 = 5; 18 − 9 = 9. Differences are 5 and 9 (not arithmetic, +4 pattern).
2. In (12, 17, 26): 17 − 12 = 5; 26 − 17 = 9. Same pattern.
3. Therefore option D matches.
