(NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into their 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)

(15, 16, 155) (12, 13, 125)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. (18, 12, 150).

The logic used here is:

(15, 16, 155)

15 + 16 = 31

31 × 5 = 155

(12, 13, 125)

12 + 13 = 25

25 × 5 = 125

Similarly,

(18, 12, 150)

18 + 13 = 30

30 × 5 = 150

Hence, (18, 12, 150) is the correct answer.
