B. B. 548
C. C. 600
D. D. 643

Answer

To find the next term in the series 343, 383, 443, 483, we can follow these steps:

1. **Identify the series**: The given series is 343, 383, 443, 483.

2. **Calculate the differences between consecutive terms**:
- First, find the difference between the first and second terms:
\[ 383 - 343 = 40 \]
- Next, find the difference between the second and third terms:
\[ 443 - 383 = 60 \]
- Finally, find the difference between the third and fourth terms:
\[ 483 - 443 = 40 \]

3. **Observe the pattern in the differences**:
- The differences we calculated are:
- 40 (from 343 to 383)
- 60 (from 383 to 443)
- 40 (from 443 to 483)

4. **Identify the next difference**:
- The differences seem to alternate between 40 and 60. The pattern appears to be:
- +40, +60, +40, ...
- Following this pattern, the next difference should be +60.

5. **Calculate the next term**:
- To find the next term after 483, we add 60:
\[ 483 + 60 = 543 \]

6. **Conclusion**:
- Therefore, the next term in the series is **543**.
