SSC CPO Tier I - 9th December 2019 - Shift 1 • Reasoning • Q197

Identify the number that does NOT belong to the following series.

104, 108, 54, 58, 29, 31

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4  i.e. 31.

Understanding Application

The pattern is

104 + 4 = 108

108 ÷ 2 = 54

54 + 4 = 58

58 ÷ 2 = 29

29 + 4 = 33 ≠ 31

Hence, 31 does not belong to the series.
