Question

What will be the nature of the next number in the given number pattern?

• A. It will be an even number.
• B. It will be an odd number.
• C. It will be zero.
• D. Cannot be determined.

Answer 1

The correct option is A It will be an even number.

Let's find the relationship between the numbers.

30 - 28 = 2
32 - 30 = 2
34 - 32 = 2
36 - 34 = 2

So, 2 is added to each term to get the next term. Also, 2 is an even number.

∴ The next term will be:
36 + 2 = 38, which is also an even number.

Thus, the addition of an even number with an even number will always result in an even number.
