What number should replace the question mark in the given series? 5, 7, 11, 19, 35, 67, ?
A111
B121
C131 ✓ Correct
D141
Correct answer: (C) 131
Explanation
The next number is 131.
The differences between terms double each time.
7-5=2, 11-7=4, 19-11=8, 35-19=16, 67-35=32.
The next difference is 32 x 2 = 64.
67 + 64 = 131.
Method: differences form a doubling pattern.
