    D 690 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let β€˜Q’ = β€˜15a’ So, β€˜P’ = 15a Γ— (2/3) = β€˜10a’ And, β€˜R’ = 15a Γ— (4/5) = β€˜12a’ Since, 6P + 2Q + 4R = 6 Γ— 10a + 2 Γ— 15a + 4 Γ— 12a = 138a Out of the given options only 690 is a multiple of 138.
