Question

which of following should come in place of
3,14,40,96,-

Answer 1

212 is one answer.

As with any sequence, there are many possible answers but this is probably the most obvious.

If you double 3 and add 8 you get 14. If you double 14 and add 12 you get 40. If you double 40 and add 16 you get 96. So double 96 and add 20 you get 212.

The formula is to double the number, then add an ever increasing number to it that is 4 more than the preceding operation added.

I'm no mathematician so this could be bananas.
