5 5.25 11.5 36.75 3 (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Which of the following numbers will come in place of (c)?

Correct Answer: 24.75

Explanation:

As per the details in the question the series is in the form of
First series :-
First term = 5
Second term = First term × 1 + 0.25 × 1
Second term = 5 × 1 + 0.25 × 1 = 5.25
Third term = Second term × 2 + 0.25 × 4
Third term = 5.25 × 2 + 0.25 × 4 = 11.5
similarly , we can find the all others terms .
Second series :-
First term = 3
Second term = First term × 1 + 0.25 × 1
Second term = 3 × 1 + 0.25 × 1 = 3.25
Third term = Second term × 2 + 0.25 × 4 = 7.5
Third term = 3.25 × 2 + 0.25 × 4 = 7.5
Fourth term = Third term × 3 + 0.25 × 9
Fourth term = 7.5 × 3 + 0.25 × 9 = 24.75
So 24.75 should come in place of (c).
