Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 16:37.

Logic : ( First Number x 2) + 5

⇒12:29

( 12 x 2) + 5 = 24 + 5 = 29

⇒15:35

( 15 x 2) + 5 = 30 + 5 = 35

Similarly, Option 2 follows the same logic :

⇒16:37

( 16 x 2) + 5 = 32 + 5 = 37

Hence, 16:37 is the correct answer.
