Question

Select the number from the given options to complete the series.
35, 38, 43, 50, 59, ___

A.

62

B.

68

C.

78

D.

70

Correct option is D

Given: 35, 38, 43, 50, 59, (?)
Logic: Add consecutive odd numbers (3, 5, 7, 9, 11) to the numbers given in the series to get the next consecutive terms.
Explanation:
To find the pattern in the series, let’s look at the difference between the consecutive numbers:
The difference between 35 and 38 is 3 (35 + 3 = 38)
The difference between 38 and 43 is 5 (38 + 5 = 43)
The difference between 43 and 50 is 7 (43 + 7 = 50)
The difference between 50 and 59 is 4 (50 + 9 = 59)
The difference is increasing by 2 each time. Continuing this pattern, the next difference should be 11.
Therefore, the next term in the series should be 59 + 11 = 70.
So, the correct option is (d).
