SSC GD Constable (English) - 11 Jan 2023 - Shift 4 • Reasoning • Q61

Which of the following numbers will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?

23, 24, 50, 153,?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 616.

Given series: 23, 24, 50, 153,?

The series follows this pattern:

23 × 1 + 1 = 23 + 1 = 24

24 ×  2 + 2 = 48 + 2 = 50

50 ×  3 + 3 = 150 + 3 = 153

153 ×  4 + 4 = 612 + 4 = 616

So, the next term in the series is 616.
