Question

Look at this series: 100, 92, 85, 79, 74, _______.
What number should come next in this series?

A.

70

B.

65

C.

69

D.

60

Correct option is A

Given:
​100, 92, 85, 79, 74, ____
Let's Check:
Now, find the differences between consecutive terms:
100 − 92 = 8
92 − 85 = 7
85 − 79 = 6
79 − 74 = 5
So the pattern is: subtracting 8, 7, 6, 5...
Next should be: 74 - 4 = 70
So, the missing number is: 70
Thus, the correct option is: (a)
