3, 23

C.

26, 298

D.

15, 285

Correct option is A

Given:
10 → 99
21 → 440
Logic: The square of 1st number - 1 = 2nd number.
10 → 99
102-1 = 100 - 1 = 99
21 → 440
212- 1 = 441 - 1 = 440
Let's check all the options: 
Option (A) 30 → 899
302- 1 = 900 - 1 = 899 (Follow)
Option (B) 3 → 23
32- 1 = 9 - 1 = 8 (Not follow)
Option (C) 26 → 298
262- 1 = 676 - 1 = 675 (Not follow)
Option (D) 15 → 285
152- 1 = 225 - 1 = 224(Not follow)
Thus, the correct option is (A) 30, 899.
