What is the next term in the following sequence ?
2 , 3 , 11 , 38 , 102 , ( ? )

1. 225
2. 227
3. 230
4. 235

Correct Option: B

The pattern is :
2 + 1³ = 2 + 1 = 3
3 + 2³ = 3 + 8 = 11
11 + 3³ = 11 + 27 = 38
38 + 4³ = 38 + 64 = 102
102 + 5³ = 102 + 125 = ?
∴ ? = 227
Thus , the next term in the sequence is 227 .
