14 : 210 :: 13 : ? :: 16 : 272

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 182.

Logic: 1st number × (1st number + 1) = 2nd number.

14 : 210 → 14 × (14 + 1) → 14 × 15 = 210

16 : 272 → 16 × (16 + 1) → 16 × 17 = 272

Similarly, 13: ? → 13 × (13 + 1) → 13 × 14 = 182
