Correct Answer: 38
Solution :
Given:
3, 6, 11, 18, 27, ?
Add consecutive odd numbers starting from 3 to each number of the series to obtain the next number.
3 + 3 = 6; 6 + 5 = 11; 11 + 7 = 18; 18 + 9 = 27; 27 + 11 = 38
So, 38 is the missing number of the series. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
