SSC MTS - 19 July 2022 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q95

Select the number from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
56, 111, 221, 441, 881, ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e 1761

The given series is: 56, 111, 221, 441, 881, ?

The logic used here is:

(56 x 2) - 1 = 111

(111 x 2) - 1 = 221

(221 x 2) - 1 = 441

(441 x 2) - 1 = 881

So, (881 x 2) - 1 = 1761

Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
