Select the number from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.

6, 6, 8, 24, 28, 140, ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. 146.

Given series: 6, 6, 8, 24, 28, 140, ?

The series follows the pattern:

6 × 1 =6

6 + 2 = 8

8 × 3 = 24

24 + 4 = 28

28 × 5 = 140

140 + 6 = 146

So, the next term in the series is 146.
