Question

Find the next term in the given series 47, 94, 71, 142, 119, 238, _ ?

Answer 1

215

47 X 2 = 94

47 + 24 = 71

71 X 2  = 142

71 + 48 (24X2) = 119

119 X 2 = 238

119 + 96 (48X2) = 215

I think...

Answer 2

Answer:

The next term in series is 215

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the given series 47, 94, 71, 142, 119, 238, ? in form of pairs

( 47, 94 ) ( 71, 142 ) ( 119, 238 ) ( ? )

Considering the first pair of numbers ( 47, 94 )

47×2

= 94

That is, second number is twice the first number in the pair.

Now, the next number ( first number of other pair ) is obtained by subtracting 23 from the the previous number , i.e.

94 – 23 = 71

Therefore, the next number is 71

Also, 71×2

=142

So the next pair of numbers is (71, 142 )

Similarly, next number

=142 – 23 = 119  and

119×2

= 238

Next pair is ( 119, 238 )

The next number will be ,

238 – 23 = 215

Hence the series is 47, 94, 71, 142, 119, 238, 215
