Answer 2

Given:

A series- 100, 50, 33.5, 25, 20, ?

To find:

The next term of the series

Solution:

We can find the solution by following the steps given below:

We know that every series has a pattern. We will look at the series and identify it.

Here, the first term is 100 which can also be written as 100/1.

The second term is 100/2= 50

Similarly, all the other terms are 100/3, 100/4, and 100/5.

On following the pattern, the next term should be 100/6.

So, the sixth term of the series =100/6

= 16.67

Therefore, the next term of the series is 16.67.
