B Correct answer
Explanation

The series increases by a constant difference of 34 (62-28=34, 96-62=34, etc.). Adding 34 to 164 gives 198.

AI explanation

The series follows a pattern of adding a constant number to each previous term. The difference between the consecutive terms is 62 minus 28 equals 34, 96 minus 62 equals 34, 130 minus 96 equals 34 and 164 minus 130 equals 34. Since the common difference is 34, the next term is found by adding 34 to 164. This calculation, 164 plus 34, results in 198, which is the missing term.
