325, 271, 226, ?, 163, 145, 136

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 190.

Given series: 325, 271, 226, ?, 163, 145, 136

Logic: Decreasing multiples of 9 as series progress

325 - 54 = 271; 271 - 45 = 226; 226 - 36 = 190; 190 - 27 = 163; 163 - 18 = 145; 145 - 9 = 136
