Correct Answer: 196


Solution : Given:
25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144, 169, ?

The numbers of the series are the squares of consecutive natural numbers starting from 5.
5 2 = 25; 6 2 = 36; 7 2 = 49; 8 2 = 64; 9 2 = 81; 10 2 = 100; 11 2 = 121; 12 2 = 144; 13 2 = 169; 14 2 = 196

So, the missing number of the series is 196. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
