It is easy to reach . Because 8 is common number. we have to calculate other than number of ( 22 & 28 ) = 28-22= 6 > So we should use 6 .
22+6= 28
28+6=34 .
So next number should be 34 .
22+6= 28
28+6=34 .
So next number should be 34 .

8 is common so the series is 22,28 ?
28-22=6 it means 6 is added in 22
To get another number we will add 6 in 28
Means 28+6=34
28-22=6 it means 6 is added in 22
To get another number we will add 6 in 28
Means 28+6=34

Here 6 is add because six is difference between 22, 28.
Like 22+6 = 28.
28+6 = 34.
Like 22+6 = 28.
28+6 = 34.

8*3 = 24-2 = 22.
8*4 = 32-4 = 28.
8*5 = 40-6 = 34.
8*4 = 32-4 = 28.
8*5 = 40-6 = 34.

8 is conman here.
8+22=30.
28+8=36 difference in the answer no is 6.
Since 8+34=42 difference is same and answer is 34.
8+22=30.
28+8=36 difference in the answer no is 6.
Since 8+34=42 difference is same and answer is 34.

8 & 6 (to add) is common here.
Then,
8+14 = 22.
8+20(6+14) = 28.
8+26(6+20) = 34 --------------- Answer.
8+32(6+26) = 40.
Then,
8+14 = 22.
8+20(6+14) = 28.
8+26(6+20) = 34 --------------- Answer.
8+32(6+26) = 40.
