Given:
A series of numbers 16, 23, 31, 40, 50, 61, ?
To Find:
The next term in the series is?
Solution:
The given problem can be solved by developing a common logic between every term.
1. The given series is 16, 23, 31, 40, 50, 61.
2. The second term in the series is obtained as,
=> Second term = 23 = 16 + 7, ( First term + 7 )
3. The third term of the series is obtained as,
=>Third term = 31 = 23 + 8, ( Second term + 8 )
4. The fourth term of the series is obtained as,
=>Fourth term = 40 = 31 + 9, ( Third term + 9 )
5. The fifth term of the series is obtained as,
=>Fifth term = 50 = 40 + 10, ( Fourth term + 10 )
6. The sixth term of the series is obtained as,
=>Sixth term = 61 = 50 + 11, ( Fifth term + 11 )
7. The seventh term of the series can be obtained using similar logic,
=> Seventh term = Sixth term + 12 = 61 + 12 = 73.
Therefore, the next number in the series is 73.
