Question

What should come in place of the question mark (?) in the given series?
55, 64, 81, 106, 139, ?

A.

181

B.

180

C.

182

D.

179

Correct option is B

Given:
55 64 81 106 139 ?

Logic:
The DOUBLE difference between consecutive terms is 8. 

Explanation (applied left to right):
64 - 55 = 9
81 - 64 = 17
106 - 81 = 25
139 - 106 = 33
The differences are increasing by 8 each time (9, 17, 25, 33). So, the next difference will be 33 + 8 = 41.
Now, add this difference to the last number:
139 + 41 = 180.

Final Answer:
180

Final Correct Option:
(B)
