Correct Answer: 407


Solution : Given:
463, 452, 439, 424, ?

In the given series, subtract consecutive odd numbers from the previous term to obtain the next term.
463 – 11 = 452; 452 – 13 = 439; 439 – 15 = 424; 424 – 17 = 407

So, 407 is the missing number in the given series. Hence, the first option is correct.
