Question

A player who was playing video game was given 20 coins to begin with the game. To go to the next level, he needs to spend 4 coins and if he succeeds the particular level, he earns 6 coins. Find the number of coins he collects after clearing each level (assuming he clears every level).

• A. 20, 25, 30, 35, 36………
• B. 20, 22, 24, 26, 28………
• C. 20, 24, 28, 30, 34………
• D. 20, 26, 32, 38, 44………

Answer 1

The correct option is B

20, 22, 24, 26, 28………

Initial coins the player has is 20 coins

Net no. of coins he gain after clearing a level = coins gained - coins spent
= 6 - 4
= 2

$\therefore$ Coins he has after clearing first level = 20 + 2 = 22

No. of coins after clearing second level = 22 + 2 = 24

No. of coins after clearing third level = 24 + 2 = 26

So, the series of coins after clearing each level is 20, 22, 24, 26, 28………
