Select the option 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 /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)

(48, 8, 12)
(42, 6, 14)

(48, 8, 12)

First number = $$\frac{second\ number \times third\ number}{2}$$

= $$\frac{8\times12}{2}$$

= $$\frac{96}{2}$$

= 48

(42, 6, 14)

First number = $$\frac{second\ number \times third\ number}{2}$$

= $$\frac{6\times14}{2}$$

= $$\frac{84}{2}$$

= 42

Option (a) (88, 22, 4)

First number = $$\frac{22\times4}{2}$$

= $$\frac{88}{2}$$

= 44

The above-given logic is not applicable here. So this is not the correct answer.

Option (b) (62, 12, 2) 

First number = $$\frac{12\times2}{2}$$

= $$\frac{24}{2}$$

= 12

The above-given logic is not applicable here. So this is not the correct answer.

Option (c) (44, 22, 4)

First number = $$\frac{22\times4}{2}$$

= $$\frac{88}{2}$$

= 44

The above-given logic is applicable here. So this is the correct answer.

Option (d) (36, 18, 2)

First number = $$\frac{18\times2}{2}$$

= $$\frac{36}{2}$$

= 18

The above-given logic is not applicable here. So this is not the correct answer.
