Question

In the given number series which follows the definite rules then find out the value of (M, N, O, and P) in second number series.

7 18 42 94 204

4 M N O P

What value will come in place of P?

Options

• 179

• 184

• 164

• 156

Answer 1

156

Explanation:

Here the given series 7  18  42  94  204 follows a pattern that, 

7 ×2+4 = 18
18 ×2+6 = 42
42 ×2+10 = 94
94 ×2+16 = 204

Similarly,

4 ×2+4 = 12
12 ×2+6 = 30
30 ×2+10 = 70
70 ×2+16 = 156

Hence, the value of P = 156.
