What should come in place of question mark (?) in the following number series?
705 728 774 843 935 1050 ?
Correct Answer: Option A
In the given series, the difference between two consecutive numbers is as follows:
→ 728 – 705 = 23
→ 774 – 728 = 46
→ 843 – 774 = 69
→ 935 – 843 = 92
→ 1050 – 935 = 115
Hence it can be concluded that these differences are increasing in every next step by 23.
∴ Next difference must be equal to 115 + 23 = 138.
Let X is the next required term in given series. Then,
→ X – 1050 = 138
→ X = 1188
Hence the required term in given number series is 1188.
