Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e 107
The given seres: 79, 81, 84, 89, 96, ?
The logic used here is:
79 + 2 = 81
81 + 3 = 84
84 + 5 = 89
89 + 7 = 96
2, 3, 5 and 7 all are prime numbers. Next prime number will be 11.
So, 96 + 11 = 107
Hence, option 3 is the correct option.
