- (48,24) right side 2 times left one.
(35,7)right 5 times left no.
(48,24)(35,7)(16,8)(75,15)(80,40)(5x,x)i guess one more no should have be given to deduce the next no..as no such relation b/w different pairs..i my opinion

- QUESTION IS WORNG I THIK 1580 IS 15,80 THEN QUESTION IS RIGHT
48,24,35,7,16,8,75,15,80,40,_ - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(12) No(2)
- Yes there must be , between 15 and 80
- 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(1)
- 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 - 7 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
