The given number series is 

3, 5, 8, 15, 28, 51, ?

Here the pattern it follows is

3

3 + 2 = 5 ( add prime number less than 3 i.e, 2)

5 + 3 = 8 (3 is prime number less than 5)

8 + 7 = 15 (7 is prime number less than 8)

15 + 13 = 28 (13 is prime number less than 15)

28 + 23 = 51 (23 is prime number less than 28)

51 + 47 = 98 (47 is prime number less than 51)

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 98.

1397 x 1397

The terms of the series are products of two consecutive prime numbers i.e.

(2 x 3), (3 x 5), (5 x 7), (7 x 11),.....

So, 165 is wrong and must be replaced by (11 x 13) i.e. 143.

Here the given number series is 2 4 27 256 3125 46656

It follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 11 = 1 \\ 22 = 4 \\ 33 = 27 \\ 44 = 256 \\ 55 = 3125 \\ 66 = 46656 \end{gathered}$$

Hence the wrong number in the given number series is 2 instead of 1.

Here given 

2, 3, 6, 15, ? , 157.5

2 x 1.5 = 3

3 x 2  = 6

6 x 2.5 = 15

15 x 3 = 45

45 x 3.5 = 157.5

Therefore, the missing number is 45

Here given series follows a pattern that

0.25, 8, 128, 1024, ?

0.25 x 32 = 8

8 x 16 = 128

128 x 8 = 1024

1024 x 4 = 4096

The given number series is 125,   138,   164,   ?,   255

125

125 + 13x1 = 138

138 + 13x2 = 164

164 + 13x3 = 203

203 + 13x4 = 255

Hence, the missing number in the series is 203.

From the given data,

$$\begin{gathered} 40100 x 75 + 80100 x 25 = K100 x 250 \\ 30 + 20 = 5K2 \\ 50 x 2 = 5K \\ K = 1005 = 20 \end{gathered}$$
