The logic followed here is:

Logic: (First number + Second number) × (2/3) = Third number

  • (82, 35, 78) → (82 + 35) × (2/3) = 117 × (2/3) = 78
  • (18, 27, 30) → (18 + 27) × (2/3) = 45 × (2/3) = 30

Similarly,

  • (27, 33, 40) → (27 + 33) × (2/3) = 60 × (2/3) = 40

Hence, '(27, 33, 40)' is the correct answer.
