    Question

    Let 2a 3b 5c = 1200 where a, b, c are integers. Then a + 2b + 3c is

    A.

    7

    B.

    8

    C.

    11

    D.

    12

    Correct option is D

    Given:

    2a × 3b × 5c = 1200
    Solution:

    Factorize 1200: 1200 = 2⁴ × 3¹ × 5²

    Now compare the exponents of prime factors with the given equation: a = 4, b = 1, c = 2

    Formula to find: a + 2b + 3c

    Substitute the values: a + 2b + 3c = 4 + 2(1) + 3(2) = 4 + 2 + 6 = 12

    Thus, the answer is 12.
