Q)

In series 1, only one number is wrong. If the wrong number is corrected, the series gets established following a certain logic. Complete series 2 with same logic and answer the given question.

Series 1: 5 9 25 91 414 2282.5
Series 2: 3 a b c d e

What will come in place of (c) ?


  • Explanation

    Given number series 1 follows the logic

    ⇒ 5×1.5+1.5= 7.5+1.5= 9

    ⇒ 9×2.5+2.5= 22.5+2.5= 25

    ⇒ 25×3.5+3.5= 87.5+3.5= 91

    ⇒ 91×4.5+4.5= 409.5+4.5= 414

    ⇒ 414×5.5+5.5= 2277+5.5= 2282.5

    Similarly, series 2

    (a)⇒ 3×1.5+1.5= 4.5+1.5= 6

    (b)⇒ 6×2.5+2.5= 15+2.5= 17.5

    (c)⇒ 17.5×3.5+3.5= 6125+3.5= 64.75

    Hence, Option D is correct.
