Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 5.

The logic used here is:

Column 2: ​​(8 + 1) × (6 + 1) = 9 × 7 = 63

Column 3: (11 + 1) × (5 + 1) = 12 × 6 = 72

Similarly;

Column 1: (x + 1) × (7 + 1) = 48

(x + 1) × 8 = 48

(x + 1) = 6

x = 5

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
