Team Careers360 · Accepted Answer

Correct Answer: 37

Solution : Given:
2, 5, 10, 17, 26, ?

Add consecutive odd numbers (starting from 3) to each term to get the next number in the given series.
2 + 3 = 5; 5 + 5 = 10; 10 + 7 = 17; 17 + 9 = 26; 26 + 11 = 37

So, 37 is the missing term. Hence, the third option is correct.
