​Find the number that can replace the question mark (?) in the series given below:
3, 8, 15, 24, 35, 48, ?​

Correct option is B

Given:

Series: 3, 8, 15, 24, 35, 48, ?

Solution:

Step 1: Check differences between terms

• 8 − 3 = 5
• 15 − 8 = 7
• 24 − 15 = 9
• 35 − 24 = 11
• 48 − 35 = 13

Pattern:
The differences are increasing by 2:
5, 7, 9, 11, 13

Next difference = 15

Next term = 48 + 15 = 63

Final Answer:

(B) 63
