Question : Directions: Study the given pattern carefully and select the number that can replace the question mark (?) in it.
Option 1: 30
Option 2: 27
Option 3: 25
Option 4: 28
Correct Answer: 25
Solution : Given:
The pattern can be observed running vertically down the columns. Column 1: (17 × 21) + (17 + 21) + 1 = 357 + 38 + 1 = 396 Column 2: (18 × 22) + (18 + 22) + 1 = 396 + 40 + 1 = 437 Column 3: (19 × (?)) + (19 + (?)) + 1 = 520 ⇒ (19 × (?)) + 19 + (?) = 520 – 1 ⇒ (19 × (?)) + 19 + (?) = 519 ⇒ (19 × (?)) + (?) = 519 – 19 = 500 ⇒ (?) × (19 + 1) = 500 ⇒ (?) × 20 = 500 ⇒ (?) = 500 ÷ 20 = 25
So, 25 is the missing number. Hence, the third option is correct.
