Answer: Option A. -> 49
The given series consists of squares of consecutive prime numbers
i.e. 22, 32, 52,.....,
112, 132, 172, 192.
So, missing term = 72 = 49.
Question 872. 6, 13,28,59,?

Answer: Option D. -> 122
1st number : 6
2nd number : 6 X 2 +1 = 13
3rd number : 13 X 2 + 2 = 28
4th number : 28 X 2 + 3 = 59
therefore
5th number : 59 x 2 + 4 = 122
