What number will replace the question mark? 2, 6, 14, 30, ?, 126

Question

Accepted Answer

1. Look at the numbers: 2, 6, 14, 30, ?, 126.

2. Each term matches the formula $2^k-2$. For example: $2=2^2-2$, $6=2^3-2$, $14=2^4-2$, $30=2^5-2$.

3. The missing term is $2^6-2=64-2=62$.

4. This fits the next term $126=2^7-2$, so option **(c)** is correct.
