Each term in this series is 12 bigger than the term before it. To find the next number add 12 to 120:

120+12=132

Each number is double the value of the preceding number.

2times 24=48

The series increases by 7, then 2, then 7 again. So the next increase should continue the pattern and increase by 2.

The number series increases by 8, then decreases by 3, then increases by 8 again. The 5th number should continue the pattern and be a decrease of 3. The answer is 17-3=14.
