Which of the following numbers will replace the question mark (?) in the given series?
62498, 61874, ?, 60644, 60038, 59438
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 61256.
62498 - 624 = 61874
61874 - 618 = 61256; (624 - 6 = 618)
61256 - 612 = 60644; (618 - 6 = 612)
60644 - 606 = 60038; (612 - 6 = 606)
60038 - 600 = 59438; (606 - 6 = 600)
