- 3.5+3.75=7.25
7.25+3.75=11
11+3.75=14.75
14.75+3.75=18.50
18.50+3.75=22.25 so ans is 22.25 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(2)
- 3 1/2=3.5
7 1/4=7.25 means 3.5+3.75=7.25+3.75=11 and so on
then 18 1/2=18.5+1.5=20+1.5=21.5
So ans is 21.5 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(15)
- ans:21
diff of 3 1/2 and 11 is 15/2
In the same way 11 and 37/2 is 15/2
Now to get next number in series add 18 1/2 +15/2 then result is 21 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- the series can be written as 3.5, 7.25, 11, 14.75,18.5, 20
the difference is 3.75
3.5+3.75=7.25
7.25+3.75=11
11+3.75=14.75
