Explanation:

Let’s break it down:

- Look at (6, 9, 45). What’s happening here?

- If you multiply the first two numbers: 6 × 9 = 54, but the third number is 45.

- If you try 6 + 9 = 15, no.

- 9 × 5 = 45, but where’s the 5 from?

- But 6 × (9 - 1) = 6 × 8 = 48. Not matching 45.

- 6 × 9 = 54; 54 - 9 = 45.

- So the relationship is:

(First × Second) - Second = Third

(6 × 9) - 9 = 54 - 9 = 45

Now, check the options one by one:

- (6, 8, 60):

6 × 8 = 48; 48 - 8 = 40, not 60

- (2, 8, 46):

2 × 8 = 16; 16 - 8 = 8, not 46

- (7, 4, 48):

7 × 4 = 28; 28 - 4 = 24, not 48

- (8, 10, 36):

8 × 10 = 80; 80 - 10 = 70, not 36

So, none of the options match that pattern exactly.

Not a perfect fit. If there’s some other pattern you spot, let’s talk—but by this rule, none is correct.
