Q. What is the next number of the following sequence.
7,-14,-4,15,-30,-20,-21,.........
Read Solution (Total 5)
-
- Series runs by *-2,+10 sequentially
7*-2=-14, -14+10=-4
15*-2=-30, -30+10=-20
Similarly, -21*-2=42, 42+10=52
Next Series numbers are 42,52 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(17) No(0)
- 7 (-2) = 14...-4
15(-2) = 30...-4(5)
21(-2) = x
x = 42 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- -42 is the answer
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- 7*-2=-14, -14+10=-4
15*-2=-30, -30+10=-20
similarly
-21*-2=42, 42+10=52
ans 52
- 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 7*(-2)=-14
-14+10=-4
Again 15*(-2)=-30
-30+10=-20
in the same way -21*(-2)=42
and 42+10=52
hence the series is 7,-14,-4,15,-30,-20,-21,42,52 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
