The given number series 2676, 445, ?, 21,6, 2, 1 follows a pattern that,

From right side,

1

1 x 1 + 1 = 2

2 x 2 + 2 = 6

6 x 3 + 3 = 21

21 x 4 + 4 = 88

88 x 5 + 5 = 445

445 x 6 + 6 = 2676

Hence the missing number in the given number series is 88.

The given number series follows a pattern that

11

11 - 5.5 = 5.5

5.5 + 4.5 = 10

10 - 3.5 = 6.5

6.5 + 2.5 = 9

9 - 1.5 = 7.5

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 7.5.

The given number series is 3, 11, 80, 291, 803

$$\begin{gathered} 3 \\ 3 + 23 = 3 + 8 = 11 \\ 11 + 43 = 11 + 64 = 75 (not 80) \\ 75 + 63 = 75 + 216 = 291 \\ 291 + 83 = 291 + 512 = 803 \end{gathered}$$

The given number series is  21 56 102 160 231 316

21      56       102        160      231       316         416

   +35    +46       +58       +71      +85       +100

        +11      +12       +13      +14      +15

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 316 + 100 = 416.

The given number series 11, 13, 30, 96, ? follows a pattern that,

11

11 x 1 + 2 = 13

13 x 2 + 4 = 30

30 x 3 + 6 = 96

96 x 4 + 8 = 392

Hence, the next number in the given series is 392.
