11 14 19 28 43 ?
β
Correct Answer: (D)
66
Explanation: In this question, the difference between two consecutive number is basically odd number starting from 3 and there is a skip of numbers as soon as we move towards the end of the series .
In first gap, 3
In second group 5 , skip 0
In third gap 9, skip 1----- that is 7
In fourth gap 15 ,skip 2 ---11,13
Similarly
In fifth gap skip 3 -----17,19,21
So the number will be 23 + previous number
23+43 = 66
