  1. Consider the following number series :

Quantity 1 : Value of $x$ :

9, 28, 67, 121, $x$

Quantity 2 : Value of $y$ :

$25,40,70, y, 175$

Show Answer

Correct Answer: 89. (1)

Solution: 89. (1) Quantity - 1 :

The pattern is :

$\left(2^{3}+1\right)=9$

$\left(3^{3}-2\right)=25$

$\left(4^{3}+3\right)=67$

$\left(5^{3}-4\right)=121$

$\therefore x=\left(6^{3}+5\right)=221$

Quantity - 2 :

The pattern is :

$25+15=40$

$40+30=70$

$70+45=115=y$

$115+60=175$

Clearly, $x>y$
