Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

20

Solution :

The correct answer is 20.


Logic and Pattern Analysis:

Let us analyze the relationship between the numbers given in the problem statement.


First Pair (15 is related to 45):

Divide the square of the first number by 5 to obtain the second number:

15 2 5 = 225 5 = 45

Alternatively, multiply the first number by one-fifth of itself:

15 × 15 5 = 15 × 3 = 45


Second Pair (25 is related to 125):

Applying the exact same logic to the second pair:

25 2 5 = 625 5 = 125

Alternatively:

25 × 25 5 = 25 × 5 = 125


Finding the Unknown Number related to 80:

Let the required number be x.

Following the established pattern, x must satisfy:

x 2 5 = 80

Multiply both sides by 5:

x 2 = 80 × 5

x 2 = 400

Taking the square root of both sides:

x = 400 = 20


Therefore, the number related to 80 using the same logic is 20.
