Answers
here's the solution
the next term in sequence will be Option C - G218M
Given Series
A50G , I306O , Q818W , Y650E , ?
Taking the first term ,
A50G
Alphabetical value of A = 1
Alphabetical value of G = 7
Difference between both the values = 7 - 1 = 6
Also,
1² + 7² = 1 + 49 = 50
Now,
After 7 next odd number is 9
And 9 is alphabetical value of I
Also, 9 + 6 = 15 , and
15 is alphabetical value of O
Also,
9² + 15² = 81 + 225 = 306
Hence, the next term in sequence is I 3 0 6 O
Following the similar pattern,
After 15 next odd number is 17
And 17 is alphabetical value of Q
17 + 6 = 23 , and
23 is alphabetical value of W
Also,
17² + 23² = 289 + 529 = 818
Hence, the next term in sequence is Q 8 1 8 W
After 23 next odd number is 25
And 25 is alphabetical value of Y
25 + 6 = 31 ,
But since alphabet has only 26 letters, we will again start from 1
So,
31 - 26 = 5
and
5 is alphabetical value of E
25² + 5² = 625 + 25 = 650
Hence, the next term in sequence is Y 6 5 0 E
Similarly,
After 5 next odd number is 7
And 7 is alphabetical value of G
Also, 7 + 6 = 13 , and
13 is alphabetical value of M
7² + 13² = 49 + 169 = 218
Hence, the next term in sequence will be G218M
