Question

Find the missing number.

$34,18,10,6,4,.....$

• A. $1$
• B. $0$
• C. $3$
• D. $2$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

$3$

In this, each term is first divided by $2$ and then increased by $1$ to get the next term.

$\frac{34}{2}$$+1$$=18$

$\frac{18}{2}$$+1$$=10$

$\frac{10}{2}$$+1$$=6$

$\frac{6}{2}$$+1$$=4$

$\frac{4}{2}$$+1$$=3$

Hence, the correct answer is $3$.
