Question

Examine the following three figures in which the numbers follow a specific pattern.

The missing number (?) in the third figure above is

Options

• 7

• 16

• 21

• 28

Answer 1

16
Explanation:

In the first two figures, the number at the top is divided by the number at the right and is then doubled. As in the first figure, `84/12=7` and

2 x 7 = 14. In the second figure, `81/9=9` and

2 x 9 = 18. In the third figure,`88/11=8.` And the missing number will be 2 x 8 = 16
