Question

Look at this series: 58, 52, 46, 40, 34... What number should come next?

• A. 26
• B. 28
• C. 30
• D. 32
• E.

Hint:

Look for the pattern in the differences between consecutive numbers to predict the next number in the series.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

The series follows the pattern of subtracting 6 from each number. \[ 58 - 6 = 52, \quad 52 - 6 = 46, \quad 46 - 6 = 40, \quad 40 - 6 = 34. \] Hence, the next number is: \[ 34 - 6 = 28. \]
