    Question

    Select the number that does NOT belong to the following series.
    5, 11, 24, 53, 106, 217

    A.

    106

    B.

    11

    C.

    5

    D.

    53

    Correct option is D

    Given: 
    5, 11, 24, 53, 106, 217
    Logic: Previous number×2+(increasing sequence 1, 2, 3, 4, ...)
    Applying the pattern:
    5 × 2 + 1 = 11
    11 × 2 + 2 = 24
    24 × 2 + 3 = 51 (Given 53, incorrect)
    51 × 2 + 4 = 106
    106 × 2 + 5 = 217
    The correct number at the fourth position should be 51, but the given number is 53.
    Thus, the correct option is (d).
