Logical Reasoning (CPO) Number series

In the following question, select the missing number from the given series.

3, 10, 24, 52, 108, ?

180

190

210

220

- To find the pattern, examine the differences between consecutive numbers in the series.

- Difference between 10 and 3: 7

- Difference between 24 and 10: 14

- Difference between 52 and 24: 28

- Difference between 108 and 52: 56

- Observe that each difference is a multiple of 7:

- 7, 14, 28, 56.

- Each difference doubles as we progress (7, 14, 28, 56).

- Following this pattern, the next difference should be 112 (double of 56).

- Add this next difference to the last number in the series:

- 108 + 112 = 220

- Correct answer is Option 4: 220
