B Correct answer
Explanation

The pattern alternates between multiplying by 5 and subtracting 7: 7 × 5 = 35, 35 - 7 = 28, 28 × 5 = 140, 140 - 7 = 133. The next step continues with × 5: 133 × 5 = 665. This is not simple addition or subtraction.

AI explanation

The sequence alternates between multiplying by 5 and subtracting 7: 7×5=35, 35−7=28, 28×5=140, 140−7=133, and continuing the pattern, 133×5=665. Spotting the alternating operation is the key to extending the series correctly.
