Explanation

The series alternates between two patterns starting from different positions: From 806: 806 + 53 = 859, 859 - ? = 935 (doesn't fit). Looking differently: 806→886→902→? (subtract 18, add 16, pattern unclear). 975→935→911 (subtract 40, subtract 24). Let's try: 806→886 (-80), 886→902 (+16), 902→911 (+9)... Not clear. Alternative: 806→975→?→935→886→911→902. Going from right: 975+? = ?+? = 935+886 = 1821... This is complex. The pattern appears to be: 806→975 (+169), 975→854 (-121), 854→935 (+81), 935→886 (-49), 886→911 (+25), 911→902 (-9). The differences are squares of odd numbers in reverse: 13², 11², 9², 7², 5², 3². So ? = 854.
