Solution

The given series is 01, 14, 49, 169, 1636, 2536, 4836.

This appears to be a series of squares, with a pattern of increasing by 3, 5, 7, 9, etc.

Let's check:

  • The square of 1 is 1 (which is represented as 01 in the series).
  • The square of 4 is 16 (not 14 as given in the series).
  • The square of 7 is 49.
  • The square of 12 is 144 (not 169 as given in the series).
  • The square of 41 is 1681 (not 1636 as given in the series).
  • The square of 50 is 2500 (not 2536 as given in the series).
  • The square of 70 is 4900 (not 4836 as given in the series).

So, all terms in the series are wrong except the first one (01) and the third one (49).
