B's weight is four and half times as much as of C.
2. B = 4.5C
C's weight is half times as much as of D.
3. C = D/2.
D's weight is half as much as of E.
4. D = E/2.
E weight is less than A but more than C.
5. A > E > C
from 1 and 2
6. A = 2B = 9C
from 6 and 3
7. A = 2B = 9C = 4.5D
from 7 and 4
8. A = 2B = 9C = 4.5D = 2.25E
so from 8 and 5
A > B > E > D > C

The correct image that fits is,

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.

Since, 5 and 8 are the remainders of 70 and 125, respectively. Thus, after subtracting these remainders from the numbers, we have the numbers 65 = (70-5),
117 = (125 – 8), which is divisible by the required number.
Now, required number = HCF of 65,117                                     [for the largest number]
For this, 117 = 65 × 1 + 52 [∵ dividend = divisior × quotient + remainder]
⇒ 65 = 52 × 1 + 13
⇒ 52 = 13 × 4 + 0
∴ HCF = 13 
Hence, 13 is the largest number which divides 70 and 125, leaving remainders 5 amnd 8.

Hence, option D is correct.

The pattern followed here is;

15 is the wrong term that doesn't follow the pattern here.
