But some books said 5/8, they took udl deflection divided by point load deflection.

Ratio is 8/5, hence multiplying by 3 we will get 24/15 which is given in options.

It's correct.

384/48×5 = 384/ 240 = by dividing you will get the answer 24/15.

8/5 is the right answer.

Therefore, 8/5 * 3/3 = 24/15 is correct.

I am not getting this, Please, Properly discuss this question.

Indu said:   8 years ago
How 24/15 is correct, could you explain me please clearly?

Sanjeev kumar said:   9 years ago
Answer is 8/5. Why we need to multiply the factor 3?

Nikhil said:   8 years ago
24/15 is equal to 8/5 so 24/15 is correct answer.

Fakhar Navee said:   2 years ago
Here, it should be wl³/48EI × 384EI /5wl⁴ = 8/5.

8/5 = 1.6,
24/15 = 1.6,
Both are same.
