NMMS MAT Number Series Question & Answer : 5, 8, 14, 23, _ , 50.

Find the missing number of the following sequences 5,8,14,23,___,50​

Question:

5,8,14,23,___,50​

30
35
36
43


Step-by-step explanation:

5+3=8

8+6=14

14+9=23

23+12=35

35+15=50


so answer will be 35

because they are having a gap of table of 3

means 5 and 8 are having a gap of 3

8 and 14 are having 6

14 & 23 - 9 , 23 & 35 - 12 , 35 & 50 - 15


In a quadratic sequence, the difference between each term increases, or decreases, at a constant rate.


In this case, the increase per iteration is 3. Thus 5–8 is 3. Then adding 3 to the original 3 gives 6. And 8+6 = 14. Continuing, the next iteration is 6+3 or 9. 9+14 is 23. The next iteration is 9+3 or 12. 12+23 = 35

Answer:
