Question

8th term of the series 6,51/2,5,41/2.......
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The pattern followed is : nth term + (n + l)th term + (n + 1) = (n + 2)th term.

Thus, 1st term + 2nd term + 2 = 3rd term; 2nd term + 3rd term + 3 = 4th term and so on.

So, missing term = 6th term = 4th term + 5th term + 5 = 24 + 41 + 5 = 70.
