Correct Answer: 48


Solution : Given:
37, ?, 61, 78, 97, 120, 149

Add consecutive prime numbers to the previous number to get the next number of the series –
37 + 11 = 48; 48 + 13 = 61; 61 + 17 = 78; 78 + 19 = 97; 97 + 23 = 120; 120 + 29 = 149 

So, 48 is the missing number of the series. Hence, the first option is correct.
