The question is 16:56::32:?

I think 16/2=8
8*7=56
Same 32/2=16
16*7=112 this is the right answer.
Option (B).

16:56 = (2/7) = 8*2 = 16,8*7 = 56.
then;32:112 = (2/7) = 16*2 = 32, 16*7 = 112,
ANS : 112.

16:56::32:?

=16*4-8 = 56,
So, 32*4-8 = 120.

I agree @Rupinder Singh.

According to me, it is;

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

56*32/16 120 is the answer.

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