-
- in the given sequence first take the alternate numbers starting from 2 then we get 2,6,12,20,..........differences are 4,6,8... so every time there is an increase 2 from previous number to next number
so numbers in the series alternatively 2,6,12,20,30,42 ....
Now take the remaining terms in the sequence the remaining are
4,8,12,16,....in this difference is always 4
so the numbers in remaining alternative numbers is 4,8,,12,16,20,24............
finally answer is
2,4,6,8,12,12,20,16,30,20,42,24,56,28,… - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(23) No(5)
- there are two series one is 0 4 8 12 16 and the other is 2 6 12 20 ?
our concern is 2 6 12 20
1*2=2
2*3=6
3*4=12
4*5=20
if we follow the same series the next one will be 5*6=30
hence the missing no is 30
ans =30 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(19) No(1)
- there are two series one is 0 4 8 12 16 and the other is 2 6 12 20 ?
our concern is 2 6 12 20
6-2=4
12-6=6
20-6=8
if we follow the same series the next one will be 30-20=10
hence the missing no is 30
ans =30 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(7) No(9)

- Ans is 16 times...Firstly divide balls in factor of three so that they are divided in equal lots.
hence lots are as follows.
2187 , 2187 , 2187 ..Number of times these lots are weighted is 2 times to get heavier lot.
next lot 729 , 729 , 729 again weighted 2 times to get heavier lot.
next lot 243 , 243, 243 again weighted 2 times to get heavier lot.
next lot 81 , 81 , 81 again weighted 2 times to get heavier lot.
next lot 27 ,27 ,27 again weighted 2 times to get heavier lot.
next lot 9 ,9 ,9 again weighted 2 times to get heavier lot.
next lot 3 ,3 ,3 again weighted 2 times to get heavier lot.
next 1 ,1 ,1 again weighted 2 times to get heavier lot.
HENCE TOTAL 16 TIMES TO BE WEIGHTED.. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
- answer is 30. because there are two series. our concern is second one. 2,6,12,20. the difference is increasing in A.P. 4,6,8. so next difference is 10. (20+10)=30
