How does this series of numbers continue? 1 - 4 - 10 - 22 - 46 - 94 - ...

  1. 188

  2. 190

  3. 200

  4. 47


Correct Option: B

AI Explanation

To identify the pattern and continue the series, let's examine the differences between consecutive terms:

1st difference: 4 - 1 = 3 2nd difference: 10 - 4 = 6 3rd difference: 22 - 10 = 12 4th difference: 46 - 22 = 24 5th difference: 94 - 46 = 48

We can observe that the differences are increasing by a factor of 2 each time. Therefore, the next difference should be 48 * 2 = 96.

To find the next term in the series, we need to add the next difference to the last term:

94 + 96 = 190

Therefore, the next term in the series is 190.

Hence, the correct answer is B) 190.
