Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option B

18

Solution :

The correct answer is 18.

To determine the missing number, we analyze the logical relationship established by the given number pairs.

First pair: 3 is related to 2.

32=1.5

Second pair: 9 is related to 6.

96=1.5

Observing both pairs, the ratio of the first number to the second number is constant and equal to 1.5.

Let x be the number related to 12 following this exact logic:

x12=1.5

Solving for x by multiplying both sides by 12:

x=12×1.5

x=18

Therefore, the number related to 12 using the same logic is 18.
