A goods manufacturing company packs the products in cardboard boxes and gives the codes as shown below. Which of the following gives the next code?
The given pattern is AD110, AE115, AF120.
The first letter in the terms is "A".
Hence, the next terms should contain "A" as the first letter.
The second letters in the terms are D, E, and F.
Hence, the second letter in the next term should be "G".
Let us find the relation between the numerical parts in the terms.
The terms are 110, 115, 120.
This is an increasing pattern.
Let us find the difference in the numeric parts of the terms.
Difference between the 1st and the 2nd terms = 115 – 110 = 5
Difference between the 2nd and the 3rd terms = 120 - 115= 5
Therefore, to find the next term, we have to add 5 to the numeric part of the term.
Hence, the next numeric part in the term is 120 + 5 = 125
Hence, the next term in the pattern is “AG125”.
