Question

The next two numbers in the given series 80, 10, 70, 15, 60, …….. are 

A.

20, 50.

B.

25, 45

C.

30, 90

D.

50, 20

Correct option is A

Let's analyze the pattern in the given series: 80, 10, 70, 15, 60, ……...

Step 1: Identify the alternating sequences

  • 80 → 70 → 60 → ? → ? (Decreasing pattern)
  • 10 → 15 → ? → ? (Increasing pattern)

Step 2: Determine the rule for the decreasing sequence

  • 80 → 70 (−10)
  • 70 → 60 (−10)
  • 60 → 50 (−10)
  • 50 → 40 (−10)

So, the missing number in this sequence is 50.

Step 3: Determine the rule for the increasing sequence

  • 10 → 15 (+5)
  • 15 → 20 (+5)
  • 20 → 25 (+5)
  • 25 → 30 (+5)

So, the missing number in this sequence is 20.

Step 4: Choose the correct option

The next two numbers in the series are 20 and 50, which matches Option (A) 20, 50.
