The next number of the sequence 3, 5, 9, 17, 33 ................ is :
-
- 65
- 60
- 50
- 49
- 65
Correct Option: A
As we see that
First term = 3
Second term = First term + 2
⇒ Second term = 3 + 2 = 5
Third term = Second term + 22
⇒ Third term = 5 + 4 = 9
Fourth term = Third term + 23
⇒ Fourth term = 9 + 8 = 17............... and so on.........
Adding 2, 22, 23, 24, 25
∴ The next term in the sequence will be 65
