The next number in the given series is 47.
Option(B) is the correct answer.
Given:
A series 6,7,18,23,38,?
To Find:
The next number of the number in the series.
Solution:
We are required to find the next number in the given series.
The pattern followed in the given series is
- The third number(18) and the first number(6) are subtracted.
- The fourth number(23) and the second number(7) are subtracted.
- The fifth number(38) and the third number(18) are subtracted.
- The values got after doing the above calculations are 12,16,20 which have a common difference of 4.
18-6= 12
23-7= 16
38-18=20
Common difference = 4
Let x be the next number in the series then
6th number(x) - 4th number(23) = 20 + common difference ------(1)
Substitute the values of the 6th number, 4th number, and common difference in the equation(1) we get
⇒ x-23 = 20+4
⇒ x-23 = 24
⇒ x = 23+24
⇒ x = 47
Therefore, The next number in the given series is 47.
Hence, Option(B) is the correct answer.
