Correct Answer: 24
Solution :
Given:
3, 12, ?, 39, 57, 78
In the above-given series, add the multiples of 3, starting from 9 to the previous number to obtain the next number.
3 + 9 = 12; 12 + 12 = 24; 24 + 15 = 39; 39 + 18 = 57; 57 + 21 = 78
So, 24 is the missing number of the series. Hence, the fourth option is correct.
