This is a simple subtraction series;
58 - 52 = 6; however, each number in the series is less than the previous number,
then,
58-6 = 52
52-6 = 46
46-6 = 40
40-6 = 34
34-6 = 28.
The correct answer is (b)285.

Yep. The answer is 28 only.
Because each no. Has a difference of 6. Thats why.
Then how its possible to be 30?

Answer is 28.
Another way 2 solve problem
58 -46 = 12
46 -34 = 12
52 -40 = 12
similarly
40- 12 = 28.
