What is the next number of the following sequence
9,3 ,6,21 ,9,12,33,15,18,?
Read Solution (Total 7)
-
- divide the series like below
{9,3,6) , (21,9,12) , (33,15,18), (x,y,z)
9--3*3 3--1*3 6--2*3
21-7*3 9--3*3 12-4*3
33-11*3 15-5*3 18--6*3
x--15*3=45 y--7*3=21 z--8*3=24
So the next terms ll be 45, 21, 24 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(36) No(3)
- sorry It is full solution;
Look upon the series Carefully
(9,3,6)...(21,9,12)...(33,15,18)
21 - 9 = 12
33 - 21 = 12
x - 33 = 12
x = 45
answer will be 45
9 - 3 = 6
21 - 9 = 12
33 - 15= 18
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(9) No(4)
- there are 3 series
1st(9 21 33 ?)9+12=21,21+12=33,33+12=45(ans)
2nd(3 9 15 ?)3*1=3,3*3=9,3*5=15,3*7=21
3rd(6 12 18 ?)table of 6 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(0)
- answer is 45
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 9-3=6
21-9=12
33-15=18
21-9=33-21=12
33+12=45(ans)
45-21=24 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
- Look upon the series Carefully
(9,3,6)...(21,9,12)...(33,15,18)
9 - 3 = 6
21 - 9 = 12
33 - 15= 18
- 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(4)
- 9-3=6
21-9=12
33-15=18
39-15=24
a:39 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
