                3 × 4 = 12 ( 3 next num is 4).
5 × 6 = 30 (5 next num is 6).
The answer is option c = 30.
                5 × 6 = 30 (5 next num is 6).
The answer is option c = 30.

                N*(N+1):
3*(3+1) = 12.
5*(5+1) = 30.
                3*(3+1) = 12.
5*(5+1) = 30.

                Simple explanation is;
3 * 4 = 12.
In the second proportion;
The First digit is 5 and the next digit is 6.
So, 5 * 6=30.
Now,
3:3 * 4 :: 5 : 5 : 6.
3:12::5::30.
                3 * 4 = 12.
In the second proportion;
The First digit is 5 and the next digit is 6.
So, 5 * 6=30.
Now,
3:3 * 4 :: 5 : 5 : 6.
3:12::5::30.

                The best solution to understand this is: 
What comes after 3 is 4.
So 3*4 = 12.
What's come after 5 is 6.
5*6 = 30.
                What comes after 3 is 4.
So 3*4 = 12.
What's come after 5 is 6.
5*6 = 30.

                Answer is 15.
1*2+1 = 3,
3*3+3 = 12.
And;
4*1+1 = 5,
6*2+3 = 15.
                1*2+1 = 3,
3*3+3 = 12.
And;
4*1+1 = 5,
6*2+3 = 15.

                3*4=12 like this 5*4=20.
20 also be the answer.
                20 also be the answer.

                3 and 5 are consecutive prime numbers so,
3 * 4 = 12 and 5 * 4 = 20 so 20 also can be the answer.
                3 * 4 = 12 and 5 * 4 = 20 so 20 also can be the answer.
