Hey friends.
Whole no are being added consecutively to the next no.
As 201+1=201.
202+2=204.
204+3=207.
207+4=2011.
So the answer is 211.
Is that clear?

201+1 = 202.
202+2 = 204.
204+3 = 207.
207+4 = 211.
And So on..
211+5 = 216..
202+2 = 204.
204+3 = 207.
207+4 = 211.
And So on..
211+5 = 216..

Also an ans could possible by breaking it 2 series (201,204,...),(202,207,...). 1st series has difference 3 and 2nd has 5. So it's like (201,204,207...),(202,207,212...). So series like 201,202,204,207,207,212,....
