Mental ability question 80,40,20,10,...
Hello!
The series here is 80, 40, 20, 10, .....
I suppose we need to fill the next empty spot.
If we closely observe the series we will find that every previous number when divided by '2' is equal to the next number.
Eg: 80 when divided by 2 gives 40 which is it's next no.
40 when divided by 2 gives 20 which is it's next no.
20 when divided by 2 gives 10 which is it's next no.
Therefore, when we divide 10 by 2 we will get '5' further when 5 is divided by 2 we get 2.5...and goes on
So, final series is 80, 40, 20, 10, 5, 2.5
I hope this is clear
Hi,
This is a question from series. Here in this series number are arranged such that the next number in line is divide by 2.
80÷2 =40
40÷2 = 20
20÷2 = 10
10÷2 =5
Hence the next number in the series will be 5.
Hope it helps.
Hey Manisha!
Mental ability questions are the questions which helps to increase our IQ level. These are also asked in some of the entrance exams and also some of the companies during placements, conduct Aptitude based exams.
In this question first value is 80 and next is half of it that is 40 and same goes on. So next value is 5 which is half of 10.
Thank you.
