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

17, 20, 80, 85, ?, 517

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 510.

Understanding

Given series: 17, 20, 80, 85, ?, 517

The series follows the pattern:

17 + 3 = 20

20 × 4 = 80

80 + 5 = 85

85 × 6 = 510

510 + 7 = 517

So, the missing term in the series is 510.
