  • Question
  • 108 , 54 , 36 ,18 , 9 , 6 , 4


  • Options
  • A. 54
  • B. 36
  • C. 18
  • D. 9

  • Correct Answer


  • Explanation

    The given series is in the below pattern,we can see that
    Next term = Previous term ÷ n { putting n = 2 and 1.5 alternately }
    First term = 108
    Second term = First term ÷ 2
    ? Second term = 108 ÷ 2 = 54 ;
    Third term = Second term ÷ 1.5
    ? Third term = 54 ÷ 1.5 = 36 ;
    Third term = Third term ÷ 2
    ? Fourth term = 36 ÷ 2 = 18 ;
    Fifth term = Fourth term ÷ 1.5
    ? Fifth term = 18 ÷ 1.5 = 9 is wrong. It should be 12.
    Sixth term = Fifth term ÷ 2
    ? Sixth term = 12 ÷ 2 = 6 ;
    Seventh term = Sixth term ÷ 1.5
    ? Seventh term = 8 ÷ 1.5 = 4
    Hence, 9 is wrong. It should be 12.
