The pattern followed here is:

Logic: (First number × 1) + (Second number × 3) = Third number.

1) (40, 120, 400)

⇒ (40 × 1) + (120 × 3) 

⇒ 40 + 360 = 400

And,

2) (18, 20, 78)

⇒ (18 × 1) + (20 × 3)

⇒ 18 + 60 = 78

Similarly,

3) (29, 23, 98)

⇒ (29 × 1) + (23 × 3)

⇒ 29 + 69 = 98

Hence, the correct answer is "(29, 23, 98)".
