I believe it is 204 hopefully this helps

Number of bugs on 1st day = 35

Number of bugs on 1st 2nd day = 52

Number of bugs on 3rd day = 69

35,52,69,....

From the above sequence it is clear that the common difference 17 which is constant.

So the given sequence is in AP

Formula for nth term is

a(n)= a1 + (n-1) *d

n = number of terms = 15

d= common difference = 17

a1 = first term = 35

So a(15) = 35 + (15-1)*17

a(15) = 35 + 14(17)

a(15) = 35 + 238

a(15) = 273

So number of bugs on 15th day is 273
