B. 29Explanation
The given number sequence follows a pattern where each number is obtained by adding an increasing odd number to the previous number. Starting with 4, we add 3 to get 7, then add 4 to get 11, then add 5 to get 16, then add 6 to get 22. Therefore, the next number in the sequence should be obtained by adding 7 to 22, resulting in 29.Rate this question:

- D.
42
Correct Answer
A. 48Explanation
The sequence is formed by multiplying each number by 2. Starting with 3, we get 6, then 12, then 24, and the next number in the sequence would be 48, which is obtained by multiplying 24 by 2.Rate this question:

Correct Answer
C. 27Explanation
The number sequence follows a pattern where each number is obtained by adding the previous number and a specific increment. In this case, the increments are 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 respectively. Therefore, to find the missing number, we add 7 to the previous number (20) resulting in 27.Rate this question:

What is the missing number in the sequence: 7, 14, __, 28, 35?
- A.
21
- B.
20
- C.
24
- D.
25
Correct Answer
A. 21Explanation
The sequence is formed by multiplying each number by 2 or adding 7. Starting with 7, we get 7*2=14, then 14*2=28, and finally 28*2=56. However, the sequence given stops at 35, which is not the result of multiplying 28 by 2. Therefore, the missing number should be the result of multiplying 35 by 2, which is 70. However, none of the answer choices include 70, so the correct answer is 21, which is the only option that is not a result of multiplying by 2.Rate this question:
