Q:

Find the missing number in the given series ?

15, 51, 216, 1100, ?, 46452

A) 5660 B) 6560
C) 6750 D) 6630
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 6630

Explanation:

Let first no. be "k" and multiple be "l"...start value of y with 3
then,
[(k x y) + {l x (l-1)}]
Thus, we get

15 x 3 + 3 x 2 = 51
51 x 4 + 4 x 3 = 216
216 x 5 + 5 x 4 = 1100
1100 x 6 + 6 x 5 = 6630
6630 x 7 + 7 x 6 = 46452

Therefore, the missing number is 6630.
