Question

What should come in place of the question mark (?) in the given series?
187, 175, 160, 141, 117, ?

A.

89

B.

87

C.

92

D.

85

Correct option is B

Given: 187, 175, 160, 141, 117, ?
Logic: Differences increase as +3, +4, +5…
187 - 175 = 12
175 - 160 = 15
160 - 141 = 19
141 - 117 = 24
Next difference  = 24 + 6 = 30
So, 117 - 30 = 87
Thus, the correct option is (b).
