Question



What comes next in the following sequence?
0.25, 2.25, 6.25, 12.25, ?

A.

18.25

B.

19.25

C.

16.25

D.

20.25

Correct option is D

Given series 0.25, 2.25, 6.25, 12.25, ?
= 2.25 - 0.25 = 2
= 6.25 - 2.25 = 4
= 12.25 - 6.25 = 6
Now, as difference between the fourth and third term is 6. So, the difference between the fifth and fourth term = 6 + 2 = 8
Add 8 in fourth term to get fifth term,
Fifth term = 12.25 + 8
Fifth term = 20.25
Thus, the sequence become,
0.25, 2.25, 6.25, 12.25, 20.25
