4, 13, 40, 121, ?
- A350
- B360
- C364
- D362
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's determine the mathematical pattern between consecutive terms:
4×3+1=12+1=13
13×3+1=39+1=40
40×3+1=120+1=121
Following the exact pattern, the next term is:
121×3+1=363+1=364
4×3+1=12+1=13
13×3+1=39+1=40
40×3+1=120+1=121
Following the exact pattern, the next term is:
121×3+1=363+1=364
