Correct Answer: 32


Solution : Given:
0, 5, 12, 21, ?, 45, 60

Add the consecutive odd numbers (starting from 5) to the previous number to get the next number –
0 + 5 = 5; 5 + 7 = 12; 12 + 9 = 21; 21 + 11 = 32; 32 + 13 = 45; 45 + 15 = 60

So, 32 is the missing number. Hence, the second option is correct.
