16*4=64;64-8=56.
32*4=128;128-8=120.
Then 120 is also answer

Given:

16:56::32:?

=> 16:56::16*2:56*2.

Hence result:

16:56::32:112.

Given 16 : 56 :: 32 : ?

16*2 = 32.
56*2 = 112.

It goes for C also.

16:56 = 16*4-8.

Similarly 32*4-8 = 120.

8 * 2 = 16,
28 * 2= 56.

Same as;

8 * 4 = 32,
28 * 4 = 112.

B is the correct answer.

16 : 56 :: 32 : ?
16 * 2 = 32,
Similarly,
56 * 2 = 112,
Therefore option B is correct.

I agree @Smarty.

16*4-8=56,
32*4-8=120.
This might be another logics to solve.

56*32/16 120 is the answer.

According to me, it is;

16 x 4 = 64,
64 - 8 = 56,
thus 32 x 4 = 128.
128 - 8 = 120.
