    Question

    Find the next number in the series:
    2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ? ​​

    A.

    40

    B.

    44

    C.

    42

    D.

    36

    Correct option is C

    Given: 2, 6, 12, 20, 30, ?
    Logic: Numbers are increasing even number from 4.
    2 + 4 = 6
    6 + 6 = 12
    12 + 8 = 20
    20 + 10 = 30
    30 + 12 = 42
    So, the missing term is 42.
    Thus, correct option is (c).
