Correct Answer: 26
Solution :
Given:
4, 11, 17, 22, ?, 29, 31, 32
Add natural numbers in decreasing order (starting from 7) to each term to get the next term of the series.
4 + 7 = 11; 11 + 6 = 17; 17 + 5 = 22; 22 + 4 = 26; 26 + 3 = 29; 29 + 2 = 31; 31 + 1 = 32
So, 26 is the missing number of the series. Hence, the second option is correct.
