C. 80

D. 85

Answer: Option A

Solution(By Examveda Team)

The pattern followed is : nth term + (n + l)th term + (n + 1) = (n + 2)th term.
Thus, 1st term + 2nd term + 2 = 3rd term; 2nd term + 3rd term + 3 = 4th term and so on.
So, missing term = 6th term = 4th term + 5th term + 5 = 24 + 41 + 5 = 70.
