Answer: Option B. -> 65
The given series is a triangular pattern series.So, we have
Series I :  2     9     28     ?                126   217    344
Series II :  7     19     ?                ?   91    127
Series III :       12     ?     ?                ?   36
Clearly, to form a pattern, the missing terms in Series III must be 18, 24, 30So, missing term = 127 + (61 + 24 + 6)= 127 + 91= 218
Question 462. Find the missing term: 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 25, ?
  1.    26
  2.    27
  3.    29
  4.    37
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 29
The pattern is +2,+4,+2,+4,
So, missing term = 25 + 4 = 29
Question 463. Find the missing term: 2, 5, 9, ?, 20, 27
  1.    14
  2.    16
  3.    18
  4.    24
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 14
The pattern is +3, +4, +5, +6,........So, missing term=9+5=14
Question 464. Find the missing term: 8, 28, 116, 584 , ?
  1.    1752
  2.    3502
  3.    3504
  4.    3508
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 3508
The pattern is x3+4, x4+4, x5+4,...............So, missing term=584x6+4=3508
Question 465. Find the missing term: 6, 13, 25, 51, 101. ?
  1.    201
  2.    202
  3.    203
  4.    205
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 203
The pattern is x2+1,x2-1,x2+1,x2-1.x...................So, missing term =101x2+1=203
Question 466. Find the missing term: 6, 12, 21, ?, 48
  1.    33
  2.    38
  3.    40
  4.    45
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 33
The pattern is +6, +9, +12, +15...............So, missing term=21+12=33
Question 467. Find out the wrong term: 0, 2, 3, 5, 8, 10, 15, 18, 24, 26, 35
  1.    18
  2.    24
  3.    26
  4.    10
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 18
The given sequence is a combination of two series:I. 0, 3, 8, 15, 24, 35 and II. 2, 5, 10, 18, 26The pattern in both I and II is + 3, + 5, + 7, + 9, .........So, in II. 18 is wrong and must be replaced by (10 + 7) i.e., 17.
Question 468. Find out the wrong term: 2, 5, 10, 50, 500, 5000
  1.    5
  2.    10
  3.    50
  4.    5000
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option D. -> 5000
Each term of the series is the product of the preceding two terms.So, 5000 is wrong and must be replaced by (50 × 500) = i.e., 25000
Question 469. Find out the wrong term:3, 10, 27, 4, 16, 64, 5, 25, 125
  1.    3
  2.    4
  3.    10
  4.    27
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option C. -> 10
The correct sequence is 3, 32 , 33,4, 42 , 43,5, 52 , 53So. 10 is wrong and must replaced by 32 i.e., 9
Question 470. Find out the wrong term: 5, 27, 61, 122, 213, 340, 509
  1.    27
  2.    61
  3.    122
  4.    509
 Discuss Question
Answer: Option A. -> 27
We have :I: 5       27       61       122       213       340     509II:  22       34       61         91       127     169III:        12        27        30        36       42IV:  
         15        3         6    
;       6           
Clearly, the given series becomes a triangular pattern series if each term in IV: is 6.
Again, in II: 34 must be replaced by (61 - 24) i.e., 37 and 22 by (37 - 18) i.e., 19.
Thus, in the given series, 27 is wrong and must be replaced by (5 + 19) i.e., 24.
