Number series (constant decrement −4) Sequence: 34 30 26 22 18 14 10 … Choose the next two numbers.

Introduction / Context:A straightforward arithmetic progression with a fixed negative step size challenges you to maintain accuracy over multiple decrements.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Given sequence: 34, 30, 26, 22, 18, 14, 10.
• The common difference appears constant.

Concept / Approach:Check consecutive differences to confirm the common difference, then continue the pattern by the same subtraction.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:Writing the tail: 18, 14, 10, 6, 2 confirms a constant −4 cadence.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:

• 8 6 and 6 4: One value fits but the second breaks the −4 rule.
• 14 18: Reverses direction.
• 4 0: Skips the required 6 after 10.

Common Pitfalls:Skipping a step when counting down by fours.

Final Answer:6 2
