Answer 2

The next term is 14.

Option (B) is correct.

Given:

• A sequence 5, 10, 7, 12, 9...

To find:

• Find the next number out of the following:
• (A) 15
• (B) 14
• (C) 16
• (D) 13

Solution:

Step 1:

On inspection it is clearly visible that the sequence is formed by two sequences.

First sequence is 5, 7, 9,...

Second sequence is 10, 12, ...

Step 2:

Find the next number.

Last term in the sequence is 9, so next term will be from second sequence.

In the second sequence there is a difference of '2' in consecutive terms.

So, the next number will be 12+2= 14

Thus,

The next term is 14.

Option (B) is correct.

The sequence is 5, 10, 7, 12, 9, 14, 11, 16,...
