Question

What is the missing term (?) in the following series?
$2,6,6,5,10,4,14,3,18,?$

• A. $1$
• B. $2$
• C. $19$
• D. $22$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$2$

In the given series every odd alternate number is increasing by 4

i.e. $2+4=6$

$6+4=10$

$10+4=14$

$14+4=18$

And every even alternate number is decreasing by 1

i.e. $6-1=5$

$5-1=4$

$4-1=3$

$3-1=2$
