Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C. 42

Explanation

The pattern alternates +3 and x3: 0 +3 = 3, x3 = 9, +3 = 12, x3 = 36, +3 = 39, x3 = 117, +3 = 120, x3 = 360. The term after 39 should be 117, but 42 is given. Hence the answer is 42.श्रृंखला में +3 और x3 बारी-बारी से आते हैं: 0 +3 = 3, x3 = 9, +3 = 12, x3 = 36, +3 = 39, x3 = 117, +3 = 120, x3 = 360। 39 के बाद 117 आना चाहिए, परंतु 42 दिया गया है। अतः उत्तर 42 है।
