Identify the correct option to complete the following series.

50, 49, 47, 44, 40, 35,?, 22

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 29.

Understanding

Given series: 50, 49, 47, 44, 40, 35,?, 22

The logic used here is:

50 - 1 = 49

49 - 2 = 47

47 - 3 = 44

44 - 4 = 40

40 - 5 = 35

35 - 6 = 29

29 - 7 = 22

The next term in the series is 29.

Hence, option 3 is the correct answer.
