Question

Read the given pattern carefully and tell which number will come in place of the question mark(?):

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 4
• D. 6

Hint:

Look for patterns in columns or rows and perform simple arithmetic operations to find the missing number.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Looking at the given pattern of numbers, we can observe the following: 
- First column: \( 7 + 5 = 12 \) 
- Second column: \( 8 + 6 = 14 \) 
- Third column: \( 2 + ? = 8 \) Thus, \( 2 + ? = 8 \), and the missing number is \( 8 - 2 = 6 \). 
Therefore, the correct answer is (B) 2.
