Correct Answer: 51
Solution :
Given:
27, 38, ?, 68, 87, 110
Add consecutive prime numbers (starting from 11) to each number in the given series to get the next number of the series.
27 + 11 = 38; 38 + 13 = 51;
51 + 17 = 68; 68 + 19 = 87; 87 + 23 = 110
So, 51 is the missing number. Hence, the third option is correct.
