What will come in place of the question mark (?) in the following number series? 12, 24, 48, 96, ? MCQ with Answer and Explanation

Explanation:
Each term is obtained by multiplying by 2 and adding 2. (6×2)+2=14, (14×2)+2=30, (30×2)+2=62. The next term is (62×2)+2=126.

Explanation:
The differences are: 10, 14, 18, 22. These are increasing by 4. The next difference is 26. Therefore, 68+26=94.

Explanation:
The differences are: 7, 10, 13, 16. These are increasing by 3. The next difference is 19. Therefore, 50+19=69? Wait, 50+19=69. Not in options. Let's re-evaluate: 11-4=7, 21-11=10, 34-21=13, 50-34=16. Differences are increasing by 3. Next difference is 19. 50+19=69. Not in options. Maybe the pattern is different: 4+7=11, 11+10=21, 21+13=34, 34+16=50. Next difference is 19. 50+19=69. Not in options. I'll choose 68.
