Question (English)

Select the number from the given options to complete the series.
35, 38, 43, 50, 59, ___

  1. 68
  2. 70 ✓ Correct
  3. 62
  4. 78
Explanation:

The given number series follows a pattern based on the difference between consecutive terms. Let's find the difference between each number:

  • $38 - 35 = 3$
  • $43 - 38 = 5$
  • $50 - 43 = 7$
  • $59 - 50 = 9$

The differences are consecutive odd numbers: $3, 5, 7, 9$. Following this pattern, the next difference should be the next odd number, which is $11$.

Therefore, the next term in the series will be:
$59 + 11 = 70$.

प्रश्न (हिंदी)

दी गई श्रृंखला को पूरा करने के लिए दिए गए विकल्पों में से उस संख्या का चयन करें।
35, 38, 43, 50, 59, ___

  1. 68
  2. 70
  3. 62
  4. 78
स्पष्टीकरण:

दी गई संख्या श्रृंखला पदों के बीच के अंतर पर आधारित एक पैटर्न का पालन करती है। आइए प्रत्येक संख्या के बीच का अंतर ज्ञात करें:

  • $38 - 35 = 3$
  • $43 - 38 = 5$
  • $50 - 43 = 7$
  • $59 - 50 = 9$

यहाँ हम देख सकते हैं कि अंतर लगातार विषम संख्याएँ (consecutive odd numbers) हैं: $3, 5, 7, 9$। इस पैटर्न का अनुसरण करते हुए, अगला अंतर अगली विषम संख्या होनी चाहिए, जो कि $11$ है।

इसलिए, श्रृंखला का अगला पद होगा:
$59 + 11 = 70$.
