| 14 | 16 | 60 |
| 11 | 17 | ? |
| 15 | 18 | 99 |
Option 1: 78
Option 2: 168
Option 3: 144
Option 4: 89
Correct Answer: 168
Solution :
The pattern can be observed running horizontally –
First row:
(14 + 16) × (16 – 14) = 30 × 2 = 60
Third row:
(15 + 18) × (18 – 15) = 33 × 3 = 99
Similarly,
Second row:
(11 + 17) × (17 – 11) = 28 × 6 = 168
So, 168 is the missing number. Hence, the second option is correct.
