1+3+4=8
3+4+8=15
4+8+15=27
8+15+27=50
hence,the series is 1,3,4,8,15,27,50..
we need to add the three consecutive terms in order to find the next term.
3+4+8=15
4+8+15=27
8+15+27=50
hence,the series is 1,3,4,8,15,27,50..
we need to add the three consecutive terms in order to find the next term.

Must it be in that series to get the answer? there should be another way out. Adding the difference between each and multiplying by the first two difference.
25 x 2 = 50.
25 x 2 = 50.
