Correct Answer: 189
Solution : Given: 9, 21, 45, 93, ?, 381
Multiply each term by 2 and add 3 to get the next term of the series – (9 × 2) + 3 = 18 + 3 = 21; (21 × 2) + 3 = 42 + 3 = 45; (45 × 2) + 3 = 90 + 3 = 93; (93 × 2) + 3 = 186 + 3 = 189; (189 × 2) + 3 = 378 + 3 = 381
So, the missing number of the series is 189. Hence, the first option is correct.
