Question

The Chinese Lunar Calender is based on a $12$-year cycle. Each year is named after an animal. The year $2022$ is named after the tiger.

When will we have the next year of the tiger after $2022$?

• A. $2026$
• B. $2030$
• C. $2034$
• D. $2038$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $2034$

$\underset{–}{ConceptInvolved:}$

When the successive term in a numerical pattern is formed by adding a fixed constant value to the previous term, the sequence obtained is an arithmetic sequence.

$\underset{–}{Method:}$

The next year we would get by adding $12$ to $2022$ since the Chinese Lunar calender follows $12$-year cycle.

Next year of tiger after $2022$
$=2022+12$
$=2034$

$2034$ would be the year of the tiger after $2022$.
