In the following question, select the related number which would replace the question mark (?).

4 : 17 :: 7 : ?

Options:

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (2) → 50

The pattern is $n^{^2} + 1$ .

For the first pair:

4:17

Here, n=4.

4^2+1=16+1=17. This matches.

Now, apply the same pattern to the second pair:

7:?

Here, n=7.

7^2+1=49+1=50.

So, the missing number is 50.
