    Question

    Select the number from among the given options that can replace the question mark (?) in the following series.
    3, 20, 121, 604, 2417, ?

    A.

    7275

    B.

    7250

    C.

    7200

    D.

    7300

    Correct option is B

    Given - 3, 20, 121, 604, 2417, ?
    Logic = Continuous multiplication with 7, 6, 5, 4 --- so on with subtraction 1 and addition 1 alternatively.
    3 ×7 - 1 = 21 - 1 = 20
    20 ×6 + 1 = 120 + 1= 121
    121 ×5 - 1 = 605 - 1= 604
    604 ×4 + 1 = 2416 + 1 = 2417
    2417 ×3 - 1 = 7251 - 1= 7250
    hence correct missing term is 7250
