Direction: In each of the following questions a number series is given. A number is given after the series and then (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) are given. According to the given series, you have to form a new series which begins with the given number, and then answer the question asked.
-
25 146 65 114 39 (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Which of the following numbers will come in place of (e) ?
-
- 122
- 119
- 112
- 94
- None of these
Correct Option: C
The given series is in the below pattern ,
First series :-
First term = 25
Second term = First term + 112
⇒ Second term = 25 + 112 = 25 + 121 = 146
Third term = Second term - 92
⇒ Third term = 146 - 92 = 146 - 81 = 65
similarly , we can calculate the all next terms .
Second series :-
First term = 39
Second term = First term + 112
⇒ Second term = 39 + 112 = 39 + 121 = 160
Third term = Second term - 92
⇒ Third term = 160 - 92 = 160 - 81 = 79
Fourth term = Third term + 72
⇒ Fourth term = 79 + 72 = 79 + 49 = 128
Fifth term = Fourth term - 52
⇒ Fifth term = 128 - 52 = 128 - 25 = 103
Fifth term = Fourth term - 52
⇒ Sixth term = 103 + 32 = 103 + 9 = 112
So 112 should come in place of (e).
