    Question

    Which of the following number will replace the question mark (?) and complete the given number series?
    4, 5, 12, 39, 160, ?

    A.

    805

    B.

    800

    C.

    850

    D.

    804

    Correct option is A

    The given series is: 4, 5, 12, 39, 160, ?

    The logic alternates between multiplying by a number and adding the same number.

    1. 4 → 5: Multiply by 1 and add 1:
      4×1+1=54 \times 1 + 1 = 54×1+1=5

    2. 5 → 12: Multiply by 2 and add 2:
      5×2+2=125 \times 2 + 2 = 125×2+2=12

    3. 12 → 39: Multiply by 3 and add 3:
      12×3+3=3912 \times 3 + 3 = 3912×3+3=39

    4. 39 → 160: Multiply by 4 and add 4:
      39×4+4=16039 \times 4 + 4 = 16039×4+4=160

    5. 160 → ?: Multiply by 5 and add 5:
      160×5+5=805160 \times 5 + 5 = 805160×5+5=805

    Correct Answer: (a) 805
