(14 - 15 - 20 - 40)
(19 - 20 - 25 - 50)
Correct Answer
5 - 6 - 11 - 22
Analyzing the First Set: Examine the mathematical steps between the elements of the first group (14, 15, 20, 40). The operations are: 14 + 1 = 15; 15 + 5 = 20; ......
💡 Analysis & Explanation
Analyzing the First Set ▼
Examine the mathematical steps between the elements of the first group (14, 15, 20, 40). The operations are: 14 + 1 = 15; 15 + 5 = 20; 20 × 2 = 40. The core logic pattern is (+1, +5, ×2).
Analyzing the Second Set ▼
Test this logic on the second group (19, 20, 25, 50). The operations are: 19 + 1 = 20; 20 + 5 = 25; 25 × 2 = 50. The exact same (+1, +5, ×2) pattern holds true.
Testing Options ▼
Let's apply this specific pattern to the fourth option (5, 6, 11, 22). Calculating it gives: 5 + 1 = 6; 6 + 5 = 11; 11 × 2 = 22. This matches flawlessly.
Conclusion ▼
The sequence 5-6-11-22 perfectly replicates the required mathematical operations.
