SSC Stenographer - 18 Nov 2022 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q170

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

98, 118, 140, ?, 190, 218

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 164.

Given series: 98, 118, 140, ?, 190, 218

The series follows this pattern:

98 + 20 = 118

118 + 22 = 140

140 + 24 = 164

164 + 26 = 190

190 + 28 = 218

So, the missing term in the series is 164.
