    Question

    What should come in place of the question mark (?) in the given series?
    176, 168, 159, 149, 138, ?, 113

    A.

    125

    B.

    129

    C.

    126

    D.

    123

    Correct option is C

    Given: 176, 168, 159, 149, 138, ?, 113
    Logic: The difference between consecutive terms is increasing by 1 each time: 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13.
    176 - 8 = 168
    168 - 9 = 159
    159 - 10 = 149
    149 - 11 = 138
    138 - 12 = 126
    126 - 13 = 113
    So, the missing term is 126.
    Thus, correct option is (c).
