The correct Answer is:
To solve the number series `222, 441, 1321, 2639, 7915, ?`, we will analyze the pattern in the series step by step. ### Step 1: Identify the pattern Let's look at the differences between consecutive terms in the series: - 441 - 222 = 219 - 1321 - 441 = 880 - 2639 - 1321 = 1318 - 7915 - 2639 = 5276 So, we have the differences: - 219, 880, 1318, 5276 ### Step 2: Analyze the differences Now let's look at the differences of these differences: - 880 - 219 = 661 - 1318 - 880 = 438 - 5276 - 1318 = 3958 So, we have the second differences: - 661, 438, 3958 ### Step 3: Analyze the second differences Now, let's find the differences of the second differences: - 438 - 661 = -223 - 3958 - 438 = 3520 So, we have the third differences: - -223, 3520 ### Step 4: Look for a pattern in the differences The differences do not seem to follow a simple arithmetic or geometric progression. Instead, let's analyze the terms directly for a multiplication pattern. ### Step 5: Check for multiplication pattern If we look at the terms: - 222 = 2 * 111 - 441 = 3 * 147 - 1321 = 4 * 330.25 (not a whole number) - 2639 = 5 * 527.8 (not a whole number) - 7915 = 6 * 1319.1667 (not a whole number) This doesn't yield a clear pattern either. ### Step 6: Re-evaluate the original numbers Let's check if there's a consistent multiplication factor or if we can express the numbers in another way. After careful observation, we can see that each term can be derived from the previous term by a certain multiplication and addition: 1. 222 * 2 - 6 = 441 2. 441 * 3 - 2 = 1321 3. 1321 * 2 - 3 = 2639 4. 2639 * 3 - 2 = 7915 ### Step 7: Predict the next term Following the established pattern: - The next term should be derived from 7915 using the same multiplication and subtraction pattern. So: - 7915 * 2 - 3 = 15830 - 3 = 15827 ### Conclusion Thus, the next term in the series is **15827**.
