- Q) 7.2, 2.2, 3.2, 16, 11 12, 60, 55, 56, ?
7.2 - 5 = 2.2 ; 2.2+1 = 3.2 ; 3.2 * 5 =16,
16 - 5 = 11 ; 11+1 = 12 ; 12 * 5 = 60,
60 - 5 = 55 ; 55+1 = 56 ; 56 * 5 = 280.

- 0 1 1 2 0.5 2 2 4 2 2 4 3 7 2
answer:
0+1=1
next term is 2
and half of 0+1 is 0.5
similarly
2+2=4
next term is 2
and half of 2+2 is 2
next
4+3=7
next term is 2
and half of 4+3 is 3.5
so the next term will be 3.5.
hence 3.5 is the answwer. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(17) No(2)
