    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).
