-
- ans is 40
1+4=5
5+5=10
10+6=16
16+7=23
23+8=31
31+9=40 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(11) No(3)
- 1. 386
expl
3+6=9 not 8
it will be 396 - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(5) No(1)
- the answer will be 40
1+(4)=5
5+(5)=10
10+(6)=16
16+(7)=23
23+(8)=31
31+(9)=40 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(0)
- ans is 40..
5-1=4
10-5=5
16-10=6
23-16=7
31-23=8
so
40-31=9.. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(2)
- 1+4=5,5+5=10,10+6=16,16+7=23,3+8=31,31+9=40
ans=40 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 5-1=4
10-5=5
16-10=6
23-16=7
31-23=8
40-31=9
ans=40 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 1+4=5
5+5=10
10+6=16
16+7=23
23+8=31
31+9=40
ans=40
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 1 + 4 = 5
5 + 5 = 10
10 + 6 = 16
16 + 7 = 23
23 + 8 = 31
31 + 9 = "40"
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- Ans is 40.
10-1 = 9;
16-5 = 11,
23-10=13,
31-16 = 15,
then,
x-23 = 17.
so x=40. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- ans=10diff betwn 2 successive terms is(4,5,6,7,8,9)
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- ans is 386
first no + last no=1+7,get a middle no=8
If we add 3+6=9(386) - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 187=7+1=8
264=2+4=6
473=4+3=7
and so on
but in case of 386=6+3=9 no. should be 396 which is not
so option will be (1) - 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
(A)
386
3+6!=8- 8 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- 386 is odd man out
-1 + 8 = 7
-2+6 = 4
(((-3+8 != 6)))
-4+7=3
-6+8 = 2
-7+8=1 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
- a) 386
difference of every two digits i.e 187 =(1=8-7)
so, 386 is out number - 5 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
