P Q=P+2Q for all integers P and Q
Quantity A
11 5
To find 11 5 we will compare what is before and after in 11 5 and P Q
=> We will replace P with 11 and Q with 5 in P Q=P+2Q to get the value of 11 5
11 5 = 11 + 2*5 = 11 + 10 = 21
Quantity B
5 11 = 5 + 2*11 = 5 + 22 = 27
Clearly, Quantity B(27) > Quantity A(21)
So, Answer will be B
Hope it helps!
