Instructions

In the following questions, find the missing number from the given responses.

Question 167

0, 6, 24, 60, ?, 210

Solution

The difference between the differences of each term is in increasing order of multiples of 6.

6-0=6
24-6=18
60-24=36
Difference between differences :
18-6 = 12 (6$$\times$$ 2)
36-18=18(6$$\times$$ 3)
The next value mustbe 24.
The difference between 60 and the next term in the series must be 24 more than 36 which is 60.
The next term of the series is 60 more than 60 which is 120.
Hence Option A is the correct answer.
