    Question

    In the following question, select the missing number from the given series.
    85, 84, 92, 83, 147, ?

    A.

    130

    B.

    120

    C.

    122

    D.

    131

    Correct option is C

    Given: 85, 84, 92, 83, 147, ?
    Logic: Subtract the square of odd numbers and add the cube of even numbers alternately.
    First Step: Starting with 85, subtract the square of 1:
    85−1=84.
    Second Step: Add the cube of 2:
    84+8=92.
    Third Step: Subtract the square of 3:
    92−9=83.
    Fourth Step: Add the cube of 4:
    83+64=147.
    Fifth Step: Subtract the square of 5:
    147−25=122.
    So, the sixth number is 122.
    The missing number in the series is 122.
    Correct Answer: (c) 122
