Study the given pattern carefully and select the number that can replace the question mark (?) in it

(1,2,2) (7, 35, 5) (12, 96, ?)

Correct option is B

For each triplet (a, b, c), observe the relationship between the three numbers.

1. (1, 2, 2):

   • The third number 2 can be calculated as 2/1= 2.

2. (7, 35, 5):

   • The third number 5 can be calculated as 35/7= 5.

So, it seems the pattern is to divide the second number by the first number to get the third number.

Applying the pattern: 96/12= 8.

Thus, the missing number is 8.
