Answer:\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 8 & 2 & 7 \\ 12 & 3 & 5 \\ 16 & 4 & 3 \end{array}\right|=0

Hint: We will try to do any two column or row equal

Given:\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 8 & 2 & 7 \\ 12 & 3 & 5 \\ 16 & 4 & 3 \end{array}\right|

Solution:\left|\begin{array}{ccc} 8 & 2 & 7 \\ 12 & 3 & 5 \\ 16 & 4 & 3 \end{array}\right|

\begin{aligned} &\text { On taking common } 4 \text { from } \mathrm{C}_{1}\\ &=4\left|\begin{array}{lll} 2 & 2 & 7 \\ 3 & 3 & 5 \\ 4 & 4 & 3 \end{array}\right| \end{aligned}

If any two rows or columns of a determinant are identical.

The value of the determinant is zero

\begin{aligned} &=4 \times 0 \quad\left(\because C_{1}=C_{2}\right) \\ &=0 \end{aligned}

Hence \left|\begin{array}{ccc} 8 & 2 & 7 \\ 12 & 3 & 5 \\ 16 & 4 & 3 \end{array}\right|=0
