  • Question
  • 1, 3, 9, 31, 128, 651, 3913


  • Options
  • A. 651
  • B. 128
  • C. 31
  • D. 9

  • Correct Answer
  • 128 

    Explanation

    As per the details in the question the series is in the form of
    Next term = ( Previous term × variable ) + ( 1 + variable )
    First term = 1
    Second term = First term × 1 + 2
    ? Second term = 1 × 1 + 2 = 3 ;
    Third term = Second term × 2 + 3
    ? Third term = 3 × 2 + 3 = 9 ;
    Similarly , we can find all others terms also.
    Fourth term = Third term × 3 + 4
    ? Fourth term = 9 × 3 + 4 = 31 ;
    Fifth term = Fourth term × 4 + 5
    ? Fifth term = 31 × 4 + 5 = 128 , is wrong . it should be 129 as fifth term .
    Sixth term = Fifth term × 5 + 6
    ? Sixth term = 129 × 5 + 6 = 651 ;
    Seventh term = Sixth term × 6 + 7
    ? Seventh term = 651 × 6 + 7 = 3913
