in the game of dubblefud , red balls , blue balls and green balls are each worth 2 , 4 and 5 points respectively . in a certain selection of balls , the product of the point values of the balls is 16000 . if the number of blue balls in this selection equals the number of green balls , how many red balls are in the selection ? Choose the correct option:
A) 1  B) 2  C) 3  D) 4  E) 5

Rationale: this is equivalent to : - 2 x * 4 y * 5 z = 16000 y = z ( given ) 2 x * 4 y * 5 y = 16000 2 x * y ^ 2 = 16000 / 20 2 x * y ^ 2 = 800 now from options given we will figure out which number will divide 800 and gives us a perfect square : - which gives us x = 4 as 2 * 4 * y ^ 2 = 800 y ^ 2 = 100 y = 10 number of red balls = 4 hence d
Answer: D
