From the difference table attached, the first 15 terms of this series are:
3, 7, 14, 24, 37, 53, 72, 94, 119, 147, 178, 212, 249, 289 and 332
The sum of these numbers = 15k, therefore;
3, 7, 14, 24, 37, 53, 72, 94, 119, 147, 178, 212, 249, 289 and 332
The sum of these numbers = 15k, therefore;
3+ 7+ 14+ 24+ 37+ 53+ 72+ 94+ 119+ 147+ 178+ 212+ 249+ 289 +332 = 15k
1830 = 15k
k = 1830/15
k = 122
The correct answer is (C), 122
