Question

In the following question, a matrix of certain characters is given. These characters follow a certain trend, row-wise or column-wise. Find out this trend and choose the missing character accordingly.

11	6	8
17	12	?
25	34	19
19	28	11

• A. $9$
• B. $13$
• C. $15$
• D. $16$

Answer 1

Answer: (D)

$16$

In the first column, $17-11=25-19=6.$

In the second column, $12-6=34-28=6.$

Let the missing number in the third column be y.

Then, $y-8=19-11=8$ or $y=16.$

So, option D.
