    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)
