6 * 3 = 18.
8 * 3 = 24.
6 * 3 = 18.

Simply we can multiply by 5.

6*5=30.
8*5=40.
9*5=45.

18+12 = 30; 30/5 = 6. Also 16+24 = 40;40/5 = 8.

So larger number divided by 5 is the answer.

So 45/5 = 9 is the answer.

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.

What's the standard formula to solve it? Please anyone tell me.

How? Explain.

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.
