C Correct answer
Explanation

The series follows a pattern of adding 24, then subtracting 6. 321+24=345, 345-6=339, 339+24=363. The term 360 is incorrect; it should be 363.

AI explanation

The series follows two alternating patterns. Starting from 7, adding 5 gives 12, adding 28 gives 40, adding 182 gives 222, adding 1518 gives 1740 (not 1742), adding 15650 gives 17390, and adding 191218 gives 208608. The incorrect number is 1742.
