The correct answer is 370.

We can notice that the difference between consecutive terms is not constant. However, the difference between the differences is constant.

The pattern followed by the numbers:

7 + 31 = 10

10 + 32 = 19

19 + 33 = 46

46 + 34 = 127

127 + 35 = 370

∴ The number that should replace the question mark (?) in the given series is 370.
