Q. Find the missing term: 6, 11, 21, 36, 56, ?
β
Correct Answer: (C)
81
Explanation: Let's analyze the pattern in the given sequence: 6, 11, 21, 36, 56, ?
Finding the Differences:
11 - 6 = 5
21 - 11 = 10
36 - 21 = 15
56 - 36 = 20
The differences are increasing by 5 each time (5, 10, 15, 20).
Continuing the pattern:
Next difference = 25
56 + 25 = 81
Thus, the missing term is 81, and the correct answer is:
(C) 81
