-
- ans is -1.125
7-4 =3
4*3/2 =6
6-3 =3
3*3/2 =4.5
4.5-1.5=3
1.5*3/2=2.25
2.25-(-0.75)=3
-0.75*3/2 = -1.125

- the ans will be 1
4-7=-3
6-4=2
3-6=-3
4.5-3=1.5
1.5-4.5=-3
2.25-1.5=0.75
-0.75-2.25=-3
so,we get -3 alternately..and formed a second series without -3,
2,1.5,0.75
2-1.5=0.5
1.5-0.75=0.75
so the next will be 0.75+1=1.75
and finally the last term will be
-0.75+1.75=1 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(10) No(18)
- there is two series 7,6,4.5,2.25 and 4,3,1.5,-0.75
7-6=1; 4-3=1;
6-4.5=1.5; 3-1.5=1.5;
4.5-2.25=2.25; 1.5-(-0.75)=2.25;
now 1,1.5,1.5^2,1.5^3....
then next term might be 2.25-(1.5^3)=-1.125

- the ans will be 1
4-7=-3
6-4=2
3-6=-3
4.5-3=1.5
1.5-4.5=-3
2.25-1.5=0.75
-0.75-2.25=-3
so,we get -3 alternately for 1st,3rd, substraction and for a second series
2,1.5,0.75
2-1.5=0.5
1.5-0.75=0.75
for each case 0.25 is added. so for last case. the difference is
0.75+0.25=1
let the last term is x;
so, x-(-0.75)=1
so,x=1-0.75=0.25
so the last term is 0.25. - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)

- 7-4=3 4-6=-2
6-3=3 3-4.5=-1.5
4.5-1.5=3 1.5-2.25=-0.75
2.25-0.75=3 0.75-0.50=0.25
Ans is 0.50 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
