Question

Complete the sequence by identifying the next set of numbers.
$45,50,55,$ ___, ___, ___, ___

• A. $59,64,69,74$
• B. $60,65,70,75$
• C. $59,63,67,71$
• D. $56,57,58,59$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $60,65,70,75$

Detailed step-by-step solution:
In the given sequence, we can see that the numbers are increasing as we move from left to right.

If we subtract the numbers repeatedly from the sequence of the following numbers, we will find the difference by which the numbers are increasing in the sequence, i.e., $5.$

$50–45=5,55–50=5$

Therefore, we can say that the numbers are increasing by $5$ as we move from left to right.

$55+5=60,60+5=65,65+5=70,70+5=75$

Therefore, the next set of numbers in the sequence is $60,65,70,75.$

Hence, Option A is correct.
