Select the option that will correctly replace the question mark (?) in the series.

102, 98, 82, 46,?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. -18.

Understanding

Given series: 102, 98, 82, 46,?

The logic used here is:

102 - 22 = 98

98 - 42 = 82

82 - 62 = 46

46 - 82 = -18

The next term in the series is -18.

Hence, option 4 is the correct answer.
