Select the set in which the numbers are related in the same way as are the numbers of the following sets.
(
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 / subtracting /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.)

Correct answer
2 - 7 - 14
Why this answer is correct
The logic followed here is:
Logic: Third Number = First Number × Second Number.
For,the set (3 - 6 - 18) →
3 × 6 = 18
For, the set (5 - 8 - 40) →
5 × 8 = 40
Now, checking the options using the same pattern:
Option 1) 4 - 5 - 23
⇒ 4 × 5 = 20 ≠ 23
Option 2) 15 - 3 - 55
⇒ 15 × 3 = 45 ≠ 55
Option 3) 9 - 8 - 64
⇒ 9 × 8 = 72 ≠ 64
Option 4) 2 - 7 - 14
⇒ 2 × 7 = 14
Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.
