12 : 120 :: 20 : 360 :: 3 : ?

Options:

15

32

7

3

Correct Answer:

3

Explanation:

Pattern followed here is :

2nd number = (1st number ) × (1st number - 2 )

We have ,

12 : 120

2nd number = (12 ) × (12 - 2 )

= 12 × 10

= 120

&  20 : 360

2nd number = (20 ) × (20 - 2 )

= 20 × 18

= 360

Similarly ,

3 : ?

2nd number = (3 ) × (3 - 2 )

= 3 × 1

= 3

3 is correct answer .
