Explanation by: Admin
Let's analyze the given sequence: 3, 7, 23, 95, ?

Step 1: Identify the pattern

We check the relationship between consecutive terms:

3 × 2 + 1 = 7

7 × 3 + 2 = 23

23 × 4 + 3 = 95


Observing the pattern:
Each term follows the rule:

Next term = (Previous term x increasing Multiplier) + Increasing Addend

Multipliers: 2, 3, 4, 5

Addends: 1, 2, 3, 4


Step 2: Find the missing term

Applying the pattern to the last known term (95):

95 x 5 + 4 = 475 + 4 = 479

Thus, the missing term is 479.

Final Answer: (C) 479
