SSC CPO - 11 Nov 2022 - Shift 3 • Reasoning • Q186

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

90, 211, 67, 236, ?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 40.

Given series: 90, 211, 67, 236,?

90 + 112 = 90 + 121 = 211

211 - 122 = 211 - 144 = 67

67 + 132 = 67 + 169 = 236

236 - 142 = 236 - 196 = 40

So, the next term in the series is 40.
