Correct Answer: 32, 38


Solution : Given:
4, 6, 8, 12, 14, 18, 20, 24, 30, ?, ?

Add 1 to the consecutive prime numbers to get the terms of the given series.
3 + 1 = 4; 5 + 1 = 6; 7 + 1 = 8; 11 + 1 = 12; 13 + 1 = 14; 17 + 1 = 18; 19 + 1 = 20; 23 + 1 = 24; 29 + 1 = 30
The next prime numbers are 31, 37. Thus, the next terms→31 + 1 = 32; 37 + 1 = 38

So, 32 and 38 are the missing terms of the given series. Hence, the third option is correct.
