Correct Answer: 2977

Solution : Given:
12, 37, 110, 331, 992, ?

The pattern is as follows –
12→(12 × 3) + 1 = 36 + 1 = 37
37→(37 × 3) – 1 = 111 – 1 = 110
110→(110 × 3) + 1 = 330 + 1 = 331
331→(331 × 3) – 1 = 993 – 1 = 992
992→(992 × 3) + 1 = 2976 + 1 = 2977

So, the missing number in the series is 2977. Hence, the third option is correct.
