Question and options

Find out the missing number from the choices given.

11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 25, __________
  1. 26
  2. 27
  3. 28
  4. 29

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D - 29
The differences alternate +2 and +4: 11 (+2) 13 (+4) 17 (+2) 19 (+4) 23 (+2) 25. The next difference is +4, giving 25 + 4 = 29; 27 would follow only if the +2 step were repeated.
