Which of the following numbers will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?

13, 4, 17, 8, 21,16, 25,?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 32.

Given series: 13, 4, 17, 8, 21,16, 25,? 

The series follows this pattern:

1. 13, 17, 21, 25

13 + 4 = 17

17 + 4 = 21

21 + 4 = 25

2. 4, 8, 16,?

4 × 2 = 8

8 × 2 = 16

16 × 2 = 32

So, the next term in the series is 32.
