Question

Find the next number in the series 34,34,68,119,178.5,..

Answer 1

Answer:

34,34,68,119,178.5,..

Answer 2

This question is based on reasoning.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given series is :- $34, 34, 68, 119, 178.5 . . . . . . . .$

    to solve this question we have to take difference of next term to                    previous term two times.

$34-34, 68-34, 119-68, 178.5-168\\0, 34, 51, 59.5$

now taking difference again

$34-0, 51-34, 59.5-51\\34, 17, 8.5$

now it follow the pattern as previous term divided by 2.

so next term will be  $\frac{8.5}{2} =4.25$

so, next term will be $59.5 + 4.25 = 63.75$

now the next term will be $178.5 + 63.75 = 242.25$

hence, the next term in the sequence will be 242.5
