    B)  -63                 

    C)  155                

    D)       282    

    E)  181

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    The series is \[+{{(1)}^{3}},-{{(3)}^{3}},+{{(5)}^{3}},-{{(7)}^{3}},+{{(9)}^{3}},...\] \[ie\text{ }181+{{(1)}^{3}}=182,\text{ }182-{{(3)}^{3}}=155\], \[155+{{(5)}^{3}}=\mathbf{280},\text{ }280-{{(7)}^{3}}=-63\], \[-63+{{(9)}^{3}}=666,\text{ }...\] Hence it should be 280 in place of 282.
