4112

The question asks to find the missing number in the given analogy: 14 : 2758 :: 16 : ?. We need to identify the mathematical relationship between 14 and 2758 and apply the same relationship to 16.

Finding the Number Pattern

Let the first number be $n$. We examine the relationship between $n=14$ and the second number, 2758.

  • Calculate the cube of 14: $14^3 = 14 \times 14 \times 14 = 2744$.
  • Compare the cube with the second number: $2758 - 2744 = 14$.
  • The pattern observed is $n^3 + n$.

Let's verify this pattern:

For $n=14$, $14^3 + 14 = 2744 + 14 = 2758$. The pattern holds true.

Applying the Pattern

Now, we apply the same pattern ($n^3 + n$) to the second number, where $n=16$.

  • Calculate the cube of 16: $16^3 = 16 \times 16 \times 16 = 4096$.
  • Add $n$ to the cube: $16^3 + 16 = 4096 + 16 = 4112$.

Determining the Missing Number

The calculated missing number is 4112.

This corresponds to Option 1.
