In three ball bearings identified as SKF 2015, 3115 and 4215a)bore is ...
According to ISO plan for dimension series bearings are provided with two digit numbers, The first number indicate the width series 8, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 in order of increasing width. The second number indicate diameter series 7, 8, 9, 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 in order of ascending outer diameter of bearing. Thus bearing number SKF 2015, 3115 and 4215 shows bearings belonging to different series with 75 mm bore diameter but width is increasing.
SKF 2015, 3115 and 4215 shows width is increasing ascending outer diameter of bearing same bore diameter 75 mm. (i.e. 15 x 5).

Explanation:
The given information states that there are three ball bearings identified as SKF 2015, 3115, and 4215. We need to determine the common characteristic among these bearings.
The options provided are:
a) Bore is common but width is increasing
b) Outer diameter is common but bore is increasing
c) Width is common but outer diameter is decreasing
d) Bore is common but outer diameter is decreasing
To find the correct answer, let's analyze each option one by one:
Option a) Bore is common but width is increasing:
In this option, the bore (inner diameter) of the bearings is common, but the width is increasing. This means that the size of the hole through which the shaft passes is the same for all the bearings, but the width of the bearings is getting larger. This option is plausible because it is common for ball bearings with the same bore size to have different widths.
Option b) Outer diameter is common but bore is increasing:
In this option, the outer diameter of the bearings is common, but the bore (inner diameter) is increasing. This means that the size of the outer surface of the bearings is the same, but the size of the hole through which the shaft passes is getting larger. This option is unlikely because it is uncommon for ball bearings with the same outer diameter to have different bore sizes.
Option c) Width is common but outer diameter is decreasing:
In this option, the width of the bearings is common, but the outer diameter is decreasing. This means that the size of the bearings' width is the same, but the size of the outer surface is getting smaller. This option is also unlikely because it is uncommon for ball bearings with the same width to have different outer diameters.
Option d) Bore is common but outer diameter is decreasing:
In this option, the bore (inner diameter) of the bearings is common, but the outer diameter is decreasing. This means that the size of the hole through which the shaft passes is the same for all the bearings, but the size of the outer surface is getting smaller. This option is unlikely because it is uncommon for ball bearings with the same bore size to have different outer diameters.
Conclusion:
After analyzing all the options, the correct answer is option a) Bore is common but width is increasing. This is plausible because it is common for ball bearings with the same bore size to have different widths.
