(15, 21, 10)
(25, 36, 17)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. (100, 33, 31).

Logic: (First number ÷ 5) + (Second number ÷ 3) = Third number.

For, (15, 21, 10) = (15 ÷ 5) + (21 ÷ 3) = 3 + 7 = 10.

For, (25, 36,17) = (25 ÷ 5) + (36 ÷ 3) = 5 + 12 = 17.

Similarly,

For (100, 33, 31) = (100 ÷ 5) + (33 ÷ 3) = 20 + 11 = 31.

Hence, the correct answer is (100, 33, 31).
