Question
Study the given pattern carefully and select the number
that can replace the question mark (?) in it. First row: 59, 66, 144 Second row: 37, 58, 82 Third row: 46, 26, ? (NOTE: Operations should be performed on the whole numbers, without breaking down the numbers into its constituent digits. E.g. 13-Operations on 13 such as adding /deleting /multiplying etc. to 13 can be performed. Breaking down 13 into 1 and 3 and then performing mathematical operations on 1 and 3 is not allowed)Solution
The logic followed in the given series is: (First term x 3) – (Second term ÷ 2) = Third term First row: 59, 66, 144 (59 x 3) – (66 ÷ 2) = 144 177 – 33 = 144 144 = 144 Second row: 37, 58, 82 (37 x 3) – (58 ÷ 2) = 82 111 – 29 = 82 82 = 82 Third row: 46, 26, ? (46 x 3) – (26 ÷ 2) = ? 138 + 13 = ? ? = 125 Hence, the correct answer is (A).
