Well, you could have 1000^1 + 1^1000, 1001^1 + 1^1001..... and the opposite set 1^1000 + 1000^1, 1^1001 + 1001^1,..... These two sets make for 200 numbers. Since I doubt that there will be more numbers that fit that equation (especially not anothe 50 numbers), then I'd go for B

You should consider posting OA's for your questions. IMHO, it's just polite to do so.
