A series is given with one term missing. Choose the correct alternative from the given ones that will complete the series.
14, 22, 33, 47, 64, ?
- A81
- B84
- C92
- D94
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's find the difference between consecutive terms in the sequence:
22−14=8
33−22=11
47−33=14
64−47=17
The differences are 8,11,14,17,…, which form an arithmetic progression with a common difference of +3.
The next difference should be:
17+3=20
Therefore, the missing term is:
64+20=84
22−14=8
33−22=11
47−33=14
64−47=17
The differences are 8,11,14,17,…, which form an arithmetic progression with a common difference of +3.
The next difference should be:
17+3=20
Therefore, the missing term is:
64+20=84
