D. 32. 30
Answer :
B. 34,32
Given :
The series 52, 50, 48, 44, 42, 40, 36.....
To find :
Next two numbers of the series
Solution :
If we carefully observe the series, we can find that the common difference between every consecutive numbers is 2 for the first 3 observations and then the difference becomes 4 for the 4th one
In first case 52 - 50 =2
Followed by :
50-48 = 2
48 - 44 = 4
44 - 42 = 2
42 - 40 = 2
40 - 36 = 4
According to the problem , the next two observations will have the common difference as 2
Therefore the numbers will be ,
36 - 2 = 34
34 - 2 = 32
HENCE, the next two numbers will be 34 and 32.
