It is clearly mentioned that the flaky aggregate, not the FLAKINESS INDEX is equating to the ELONGATION INDEX.
For a flaky aggregate, there should be a FI and EI.
Hence, FI= 3/5 of mean size and EI= 9/5 of mean size.
So the given answer is CORRECT----> option B.

C is the correct answer.

C is the right option, The size of flaky aggregate is 3/5 =0.6 as well the size of an elongated particle is 9/5 = 1.8.
When we multiply 0.6 with 3 then the answer is 1.8 which is the size of an elongated particle as mention in the question. So option C is correct.

It shoul be thrice.

Flaky aggregate .6 times mean dimensions.
Elongated aggregate 1.8 times mean dimensions.
So, Flaky aggregate is 3 times of elongated aggregate.
Elongated aggregate 1.8 times mean dimensions.
So, Flaky aggregate is 3 times of elongated aggregate.

Given answer is correct. Because there is no relation b/w flaky and elongation.
So 1.8~2 times.
So 1.8~2 times.

Can someone explain. Why it's twice?
Sandeep Suthar Hisar said:

Twice is the Correct answer because mean size is not 0.6 it is the length but we have calculated with respect to mean size so 9/5 is the correct answer.

Option C is correct according to IS456.

Option B is correct because the answer will be from mean size.
9/5 is the mean size.
9/5 is the mean size.
