    Can you give us a hint?
    Is it strictly numeric/mathematical?
    Or does it involve some social thing?
    Something about some products?

    separate the given series into two different series.. & observe them you will definitely get an idea....

    I know it is tough!!! But it is mathematical......

    Hint: Every number is dependent only on its previous number, except the 1st one(Ex: 62 is derived only from 72).

    Also, sometimes there might be many answers for a series. thinking might be different!!! I would be happy to have any answer with a proper explanation.

    Ans is 132 according to my logic...
    7^2+2^2+7+2=62...
    6^2+2^2+6+2=48...
    4^2+8^2+4+8=92...
    9^2+2^2+9+2=96...
    9^2+6^2+9+6=132...

    Correct 😀.

    OK, that explains why they're all even numbers.
    An odd numbered squared is always odd, and the sum of two odd numbers is always even.
