Select the related number from the given alternatives. 20:30::?: 72
A48
B19
C20
D31

correct answer is: option a (48)
Explanation: The relationship between 20 and 30 can be expressed as: \( 20 \times \frac{3}{2} = 30 \). We need to find a number that, when multiplied by \(\frac{3}{2}\), equals 72. Thus, the required number is \( 72 \div \frac{3}{2} = 72 \times \frac{2}{3} = 48 \).

  • Option a: 48 is the correct answer because \( 48 \times \frac{3}{2} = 72 \).
  • Option b: 19 is incorrect as \( 19 \times \frac{3}{2} \neq 72 \).
  • Option c: 20 is incorrect as \( 20 \times \frac{3}{2} \neq 72 \).
  • Option d: 31 is incorrect as \( 31 \times \frac{3}{2} \neq 72 \).
