We know,

\mathrm{r \propto \frac{n^{2}}{z} }\\

\mathrm{\therefore \frac{r\left(\mathrm{He}^{+}, n=2\right)}{r\left(\mathrm{Li}^{2+}, n=3\right)}=\frac{2^{2} \times 3}{2 \times 3^{2}}=\frac{2}{3} }

\mathrm{\therefore r\left(Li^{2+}, n=3\right) =\frac{3}{2} r\left(\mathrm{He}^{+}, n=2\right)} \\

                                =\frac{3}{2} \times 105.8 \\

                                =158.7 \mathrm{pm}

Hence correct option is 4
