Question

300 packs of oats are packed in a manufacturing company in an hour. At this rate, how many packs will be prepared after 8 hours? Refer the given sequence.

300, 600, 900, 1200

• A. 20,000
• B. 24,000
• C. 2,400
• D. 240

Answer 1

The correct option is C 2,400

The given sequence is 300, 600, 900, 1200.

Difference between the 1st and the 2nd terms = 600 - 300 = 300

Difference between the 2nd and the 3rd terms = 900 - 600 = 300

Therefore, to find the next term, we have to add 300 to the term.

Hence, the next terms are 1500, 1800, 2100, 2400.

After 8 hours, 2,400 packs of oats would have been prepared.
