(2, 28, 4) (3, 22, 2)

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. (4, 31, 3).

The logic used here is:

(2, 28, 4)

2 × 4 + 4 × 5 = 8 + 20 = 28

(3, 22, 2)

3 × 4 + 2 × 5 = 12 + 10 = 22

Similarly,

(4, 31, 3)

4 × 4 + 3 × 5 = 16 + 15 = 31

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
