Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option A

80

Solution :

The correct answer is 80.

Let's analyze the logic relating the numbers step-by-step:

First, we look at the relationship between the first pair of numbers, 20 and 30:
If we divide the second number by the first number, we get:

3020=1.5

This means 20 is multiplied by 1.5 to get 30.

Next, let's verify if the same logic applies to the second pair, 30 and 45:

4530=1.5

This confirms that the logic is to multiply the first number by 1.5 (or 32) to get the second related number.

Now, let x be the number that is related to 120 using this same logic. This means:

x×1.5=120

We can solve for x by dividing 120 by 1.5:

x=1201.5

x=12032

x=120×23

x=40×2

x=80

Therefore, the number related to 120 using the same logic is 80.
