| 22 | 32 | 7 |
| 18 | 24 | 5 |
| 32 | 40 | ? |
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e 8
The pattern followed here is:
Column 1 → 2 × 18 – (22 – 18) = 32
Column 2 → 2 × 24 – (32 – 28) = 40
Similarly,
Column 3 → 2 × 5 – (7 – 5) = 8
Hence, the correct answer is 8.
