16: 50:: 49:? :: 144: 338

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 128.

The logic used here is:

16: 50

42 = 16

4 + 1 = 5

52 × 2 = 25 × 2 = 50

144: 338

122 = 144

12 + 1 = 13

132 × 2 = 169 × 2 = 338

Similarly,

49:?

72 = 49

7 + 1 = 8

82 × 2 = 64 × 2 = 128

Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.
