Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 4 i.e. 15/226.

Understanding

Given- 7/50 : 9/82 : : 13/170 : ?

The pattern followed here is:

7 × 1/ 72 + 1 : (7 + 2) × 1/ 92 + 1 : : 13 × 1/ 132 + 1 : ?

Thus, the number that will replace the question mark is:

(13 + 2) × 1/ 152 + 1

= 15 × 1/ 225 + 1

= 15/ 226
