Question : Directions: Which number will replace the question mark (?) in the following series?
112, ?, 83, 70, 58, 47, 37
Option 1: 94
Option 2: 97
Option 3: 100
Option 4: 104
Correct Answer: 97
Solution :
Given:
112, ?, 83, 70, 58, 47, 37
Subtract decreasing order of numbers starting from 15 to the previous number to get the next number of the series –
112 – 15 = 97; 97 – 14 = 83; 83 – 13 = 70; 70 – 12 = 58; 58 – 11 = 47; 47 – 10 = 37
So, 97 is the missing number of the series. Hence, the second option is correct.
