48,24,35,7,16,8,75,15,8,40?

• but what about 8 present before 40..!!??
  rest all are divide by 2 and divided by 5 alternately....

• (48,24) , ( 35,7) , (16,8) , (75,15) , ( 40, x)
  
  48 = 24 * 2
  35 = 7 * 5
  16 = 8 * 2
  75 = 15*5
  Here there is alternate multiplication by 2 and 5
  
  => 40 = x * 2
  => x = 20

• Logic :
  Take 4 numbers as each set.
  They have a pattern like, first two numbers in each of the four differ by a factor of 2 (48/24, 16/8).
  And the next two differ by a factor of 5 (35/7, 75/15).
  
  Likewise the first two numbers in the required set differ by a factor of 2 (80/40).
  
  Now our required numbers will be in the pattern of 5x and x. We need to find that x now.
  
  Consider the sum of each of the first two sets,
  48+24+35+7 = 114
  16+8+75+15 = 114
  Now, 80+40+5x+x should be equal to 114.
  Solving for x, x = -1.
  So the series would be 80, 40, -5, -1

• qu is 48,24,35,7,16,8,75,15,80,40?
  
  what is the next term?

• question is wrong. replace 8 by 80. answer is 35+40 = 75
  75+40=115
  so ans is 115

• 8 wont come there.
  ans is 20
  24*2=48,7*5=35,8*2=16,15*5=75,20*2=40

• Q.48,24,35,7,16,8,75,15,8,40?
  
  Ans : 80 will be place of 8.
  Exp:
  (48,24) (35,7) (16,8) (75,15) & (80,40)
  48 = 24 * 2
  35 = 7 * 5
  16 = 8 * 2
  75 = 15*5
  Alternate multiplication by 2 & 5
  
  So ans should be 80.

• 48/2=24
  35/5=7
  16/2=8
  75/5=15
  80/2=40
  40/5=8

• (48,24), (35,7), (16,8), (75,15), (80,40) , (x,y)
  *2 *5 *2 *5 *2 *5
  
  75-35=40 and difference is 40 so next term is x-75 = 40 => x=115 and y = 115/5 = 23

• series is written incorrect, correct series is 48,24,35,7,16,8,75,15,80,40,?
• 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(2)
• Series will be 48,24,35,7,16,8,75,15,80,40,x,y
  
  Now,
  48/24 = 2
  35/7 = 5
  16/8 = 2
  75/15 = 5
  80/40 = 2
  x/y = 5
  
  Now,
  35-24 = 11
  16-7 = 9
  75-8 = 67 -------------> 67-11 = 56
  80-15 = 65 ------------> 65-9 = 56
  x-40 = z ---------------> z-67 = 56 => z = 123
  => x = 163
  y = 163/5 = 32.6

  48 = 24 * 2
  35 = 7 * 5
  16 = 8 * 2
  75 = 15*5
  Alternate multiplication by 2 & 5
  
  35+40=75
  75+40=115
  another sequence
  7+8=15
  15+8=23
  so answer is (115,23)
