Given:

  • ?,216,175,132,85,32

To find:

  • The unknown quantity (?)

Assumption:

  • Let the unknown quantity be x.

Solution:

So,

=> x,216,175,132,85,32

Taking differences of adjacent terms,

  • x and 216 => x - 216
  • 216 and 175 => 41
  • 175 and 132 => 43
  • 132 and 85 => 47
  • 85 and 32 => 53

We know that, 41, 43, 47 and 53 are consecutive prime numbers.

So,

x - 216 is a prime number which is just less than 41.

So,

x - 216 = 37 => x = 253

So, the unknown quantity is 253

HOPE IT HELPS!!!!!
