Correct Answer: 74


Solution : Given:
71, 74, 72, 75, 73, 76, ?

In the given series, add 3 and subtract 2 alternatively from the previous number to get the next number.
71 + 3 = 74; 74 – 2 = 72; 72 + 3 = 75; 75 – 2 = 73; 73 + 3 = 76; 76 – 2 = 74

So, 74 is the missing number. Hence, the second option is correct.
