SSC Stenographer - 17 Nov 2022 - Shift 2 • Reasoning • Q162

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

8, ?, 20, 32, 48, 68

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 12.

Given series: 8, ?, 20, 32, 48, 68

The series follows this pattern:

8 + 4 = 12

12 + 8 = 20

20 + 12 = 32

32 + 16 = 48

48 + 20 = 68

So, the missing term in the series is 12.
