Question

What should come in place of the question mark (?) in the given series? 11 14 24 41 65 ?

• A. 98
• B. 97
• C. 95
• D. 96

Answer 1

Answer:

D. 96

Series:
11, 14, 24, 41, 65, ?

Look at the differences:

14 − 11 = 3
24 − 14 = 10
41 − 24 = 17
65 − 41 = 24

Differences: 3, 10, 17, 24 → increasing by +7

Next difference = 24 + 7 = 31

So next term = 65 + 31 = 96

Final Answer:

96
