Read Solution (Total 14)
-
- 80
there should be a 90
so we can have a series
5, 5*3, 15*2, 30*3, 90*2, 180*3, 540*2 and 1080*3 and so on... - 13 years agoHelpfull: Yes(40) No(2)
- 80 is wrong it should be 90
5 30(5*6) 180(30*6) 1080(180*6) and
15 90(15*6) 540(90*6) ....
so combined mix series is= 5 15 30 90 180 540 1080 ....
so ans is 80

- 80
5*3=15 -> 5,15
15*2=30 -> 15,30
30*3 = 90 -> 30,90
90*2 =180 -> 90,180
180*3 =540 ->180,540
540*2=1080-> 540,1080
5,15,30,90,180,540,1080
