529 : 577 :: 841 : ?

Correct Answer: (d) 901
Solution:The pattern followed here is :

{(โˆš1st number + 1)ยฒ + 1} = 2nd number

(529 : 577) โ†’ {(โˆš529 + 1)ยฒ + 1} โ‡’ {(23 + 1)ยฒ + 1} โ‡’ 576 + 1 = 577

Similarly,

(841 : ?) โ†’ {(โˆš841 + 1)ยฒ + 1} โ‡’ {(29 + 1)ยฒ + 1} โ‡’ 900 + 1 = 901

Hence, "901" is the correct answer.
