- A392
- B350
- C294
- D441
Step-by-Step Solution
Cube the number and add its square: and 64 + 16 = 80. For 7 this gives 343 + 49 = 392. The trap 350 is 343 + 7, adding the number itself instead of its square; 294 is 343 − 49, subtracting where the rule adds; and 441 is 343 + 98, adding twice the square. None of the three survives the first pair, where the same three steps give 68, 48 and 96 in place of 80.
Answer: A) 392
