Solution

The correct option is A 12, 9
Let the next two terms in the sequence be x and y respectively.

24, 21, 18, 15, x , y ....

21 = 24 - 3
18 = 21 - 3
15 = 18 - 3

Observing the pattern we observe that each term is obtained by subtracting 3 from the previous term.
x = 15 - 3 = 12
y = 12 - 3 = 9
