The pattern followed is given below

F2 Puja T 22-2-22 Savita D22

As it is seen that addition is done in a particular sequence.

And ‘82’ is wrong, the correct sequence should be

F2 Puja T 22-2-22 Savita D23

Hence, the correct answer is "82".

Alternate Method 

The pattern followed here is -

39 + 7 = 46

46 + 14 = 60

60 + 21 = 81

81 + 28 = 109

109 + 35 = 144

Hence, the correct answer is "82".
