Step 1: Observing the difference between the adjacent numbers \textbf{ Step 1: Observing the difference between the
adjacent numbers} Step 1: Observing the difference between the adjacent numbers
If we notice the adjacent numbers, we see 4 × 2 − 1 = 7
\text{If we notice the adjacent numbers, we see } 4\times 2 -1 =7 If we notice the adjacent numbers, we see 4 × 2 − 1 = 7
Similarly, 7 × 2 − 1 = 13
\text{Similarly, } 7 \times 2-1=13 Similarly, 7 × 2 − 1 = 13
Similarly, 13 × 2 − 1 = 25
\text{Similarly, } 13\times2 -1=25 Similarly, 13 × 2 − 1 = 25
Similarly, 25 × 2 − 1 = 49 \text{Similarly, } 25\times2-1=49 Similarly, 25 × 2 − 1 = 49
Step 2: Calculating the missing number \textbf{Step 2: Calculating the missing number} Step 2: Calculating the missing number
Thus, looking at the above observations, we can conclude the missing number will be:
\text{Thus, looking at the above observations, we can conclude the missing
number will be:} Thus, looking at the above observations, we can conclude the missing number will be:
⇒ 49 × 2 − 1 = 97
\Rightarrow 49\times 2-1=97 ⇒ 49 × 2 − 1 = 97
Thus, the missing number is D 97 \textbf{Thus, the missing number is D 97} Thus, the missing number is D 97
