Answer
24, 41, 62, 78, 98
+17 +21 +26 +20
14, 32, 48, 59, 74
+18 +16 +11 +15
17 , 21 , 26 , 20
+4 +5 +6
if we replace 20 with 26+6= 32 then next number would be 78+32 =110 which is not there in the second series.
18, 16 , 11 , 15
-2 -5 +4
If we consider a pattern 18,16,14,12 then the series would be 14 , 32 , 48 , 62 , 74 Here 62 has been taken from first series.
Now if we take first series
24, 41, 59, 78, 98
+17 +18 +19 +20
There is also a pattern now. So the numbers to be interchanged 62 and 59.
