Correct answer: B. A, B onlyA, B केवल
Explanation
A: differences are 2,6,12,20,30 = 1×2, 2×3, 3×4, 4×5, 5×6 — a clean, fully consistent pattern. B: differences 23,69,115,161 have a constant second difference of 46 throughout — a clean quadratic pattern. C has no consistent ratio or difference pattern. D and E each look close to a recursive rule for the first few terms but break on the last term, so they do not hold consistently. Hence only A, B are genuinely correct series.A: अंतर 2,6,12,20,30 = 1×2, 2×3, 3×4, 4×5, 5×6 हैं — एक स्पष्ट, पूर्णतः सुसंगत प्रतिरूप। B: अंतर 23,69,115,161 का द्वितीय अंतर पूरे क्रम में स्थिर रूप से 46 है — एक स्पष्ट द्विघात (quadratic) प्रतिरूप। C में कोई सुसंगत अनुपात या अंतर प्रतिरूप नहीं है। D और E शुरुआती पदों के लिए किसी आवर्ती नियम के निकट प्रतीत होते हैं परंतु अंतिम पद पर टूट जाते हैं, अतः ये सुसंगत नहीं हैं। अतः केवल A, B ही वास्तव में सही श्रृंखलाएँ हैं।More Mathematical Reasoning and Aptitude questions
