    A 172 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 142 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 152 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 138 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 149 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    In series I, Sum of the digit of the number is added to the number itself. 23 + 2 + 3 = 28 28 + 2 + 8 = 38 38 + 3 + 8 = 49 49 + 4 + 9 = 62 62 + 6 + 2 = 70 Therefore, 38 should come in place of 39. So, 'P' = 39 and 'Q' = 38 So, first term of the series = (55 + 58) = 113 In series II, P + Q + 62 = 38 + 39 + 36 = 113 113 + (1 + 1 + 3) = 118 118 + (1 + 1 + 8) = 128 128 + (1 + 2 + 8) = 139 139 + (1 + 3 + 9) = 152 So, the required term = 152
