Detailed Solution & Explanation

To find the next term in the series 675,623,573,525,?\displaystyle 675, 623, 573, 525, ?, we analyze the differences between consecutive terms:

- 1st term to 2nd term: 675−623=52\displaystyle 675 - 623 = 52
- 2nd term to 3rd term: 623−573=50\displaystyle 623 - 573 = 50
- 3rd term to 4th term: 573−525=48\displaystyle 573 - 525 = 48

We observe that the difference between terms is decreasing by exactly 2\displaystyle 2 at each step (52,50,48,…\displaystyle 52, 50, 48, \dots).
Following this logical pattern, the next difference must be 46\displaystyle 46. We subtract 46\displaystyle 46 from the 4th term (525\displaystyle 525):
525−46=479525 - 46 = 479

Hence, **Option B** is the correct answer.
