Question

Which of the following numbers will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?
47,48,52,79,95, ? ​​

A.

212

B.

202

C.

220

D.

221

Correct option is C

Given:
47, 48, 52, 79, 95, ?
Logic: Difference of two constitutive number is in incresing from 1, 4, 27, 16.
48−47=1
52 − 48 = 4 
79 − 52 = 27 
95 − 79 = 16
Analyze the sequence of differences
There is no immediately obvious linear pattern, but it suggests a possible mix of squares and cubes:
1 = 131^3
4 = 222^2
27 = 333^3
16= 424^2
​​Following this pattern, the next term should be- 
After 424^2 = 16 , the next difference should be 535^3 = 125 
The last term in the series is 95
95+125
=220
Thus, correct option is (c)
