Question

A series is given with one term missing. Select the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series. 4, 13, 40, 121, ? Options 364,350,362,360

Answer 1

Answer:

I think 362 is the answer

Answer 2

The "missing term (?)  is 364."

Step-by-step explanation:

The series are

4, 13, 40, 121, ?

The pattern is (3 × x) + 1.

13 = 3 × 4 + 1 = 12 + 1 = 13

40 = 13 × 3 + 1 = 39 + 1 = 40

121 = 40 × 3 + 1 = 120 + 1 = 121

∴ ? =  121 × 3 + 1 = 363 + 1 = 364

Hence, the "missing term (?)  is 364."
