Choose the correct alternative from the given options that will replace the question mark (?) in the following series:

7, 8, 18, 57, ?, 1165

174

232

224

228

✅ Correct Option: 2

Looking at the series: 7, 8, 18, 57, ?, 1165

Let me examine the relationship between consecutive terms:

$7 \times 1 + 1 = 8$

$8 \times 2 + 2 = 18$

$18 \times 3 + 3 = 57$

The pattern shows each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by an increasing multiplier (1, 2, 3, ...) and then adding that same multiplier.

Continuing the pattern:

$57 \times 4 + 4 = 228 + 4 = 232$

Confirming with the next term:

$232 \times 5 + 5 = 1160 + 5 = 1165$ ✓

This matches the given term in the series.

Therefore, the missing number is 232.

The correct answer is Option 2.
