according to me the series should be rectified to...
4 18 100 294__...so that the series should go like this...
1*2^2 2*3^2 4*5^2 6*7^2 10*11^2...& so on...
I hope it is correct now...those who agree please say "yes"...those not please submit your solution & then say "no"...

180 is right answer,, 4 = 1×2^2, 18 = 2×3^2, 48 = 3×4^2, 100 = 4×5^2, ...

So I believe the next number would be 180 or 5×6^2. say yes or say no

i think the term 350 should be replaced by 294...the final ans would be 1210...
2^3-2^2=4
3^3-3^2=18
5^3-5^2=100
7^3-7^2=294
11^3-11^2=1210

1*2^2(here,1=2-1),2*3^2(here,2=3-1),4*5^2(here,4=5-1)
and the base is following the sequence 2,3,5
therefore the next number will be 8.
Then, the required number will be 7*8^2(here 7=8-1 as mentioned in the above series)
ans:448
