| If we consider (022, 033, 066, 099, 121, 279, 594) , then we see middle term sum of (1st & 3rd) term. Except 279. | |
| Sonutalwani said: (Jun 29, 2012) | |
| 11*2=22. 11*3=33. 11*6=66. 11*9=99. 11*11=121. 11*54=594. 279 is not divided by 11. |

| Is there any reason to multiply with 11? If we multiply with 3 means the answer is 121. |

| Don't confused if add 1st and 3rd number we get middle number. So 279 is except from that then answer is 279. | |

| Very nice. | |
| Aanchal said: (Jan 6, 2016) | |
| From 3rd no, every number is three times previous-to-previous number. Eg: 66 is thrice 22, 99 is thrice 33. So, answer could also be 121 (198 should come instead). |

| But if u do like this : 22 * 3 = 66, 33 * 3 = 99, 66 * 3 = 198 but in problem 121 (Ans), 198 * 3 = 594, 99 * 3 = 279. |

| Answer is 11. 33 = 3*11 36= 3*12 108= 3*36 110=11*10 333=3*111. Only 11 is a prime number. |

| The simple solution is; 11*2=22, 11*3=33, 11*6=66, 11*9=99, 11*11=121, 11*54=594. (eg:11*54= 594(take the middle number out (5-*9*-4)of any three digit answer then you can find the same number which is multiplied by the number 11)). the same way other can be done. |

| 11*2=22. 11*3=33. 11*6=66. 11*9=99. 11*11=121. 11*54=594. 279 is not divided by 11. |

| @Kartika answer will be 110. 11*3=33. 33+3=36. 36*3=108. 108+3=111(110 which is wrong). 111*3=333. |
