Question

Find the missing number(s) 100, 50, 52, 26, 28,?, 16, 8. (A) 30 (B) 36 (C) 14 (D) 32

Answer 1

The answer is (C) 14

1st term=100
2nd term=50 [i.e half of the previous term] (1)
3rd term =52 [i.e add 2 to the previous term] (2)

And this series repeates.
4th term=26 [half of the previous term]------just like (1)
5th term=28[adding 2 to the previous term] ------just like (2)

Again repeates
6th term should be half of previous term. i.e half of 28=14

To confirm it is right:
7th term should be adding 2 to the previous term from.our assumed meathod, which is 16 and that is ryt from the given series.

Hence our answer is correct
