12-30 = 18, so smallest number subtraction by 18-12 = 6
16-40 = 24, so smallest number subtraction by 24-16 = 8
45-27 = 18, so smallest number subtraction by 18-27 = 9
Therefore the answer is an option (c) 9.

We can do it like this too see first add all the numbers 12+18+30 = 60 ( 6x10=60)
Then 16 + 24 + 40= 80 (8x10=80)
45 + 18 + 27 = 90(9x10=90)
So the answer is 9.

12, 8, 30 divisible by 6.
16, 24, 40 divisible by 8.

According to that,
45, 18 and 27 are divisible by 9.

So answer is 9.

See 12+18 = 30/6 = 5.
16 + 24 = 40/8 = 5.
45 + 18 = 63/7 = 9.

6*2=12 6*3=18 6*5=30

8*2=16 8*3=24 8*5=40

18÷2=9 27÷3=9 45÷5=9.

Therefore the answer is option (C) 9.
