The series is taken as 3 numbers as one group i.e. like.

(4, 7, 25) and

(10, _, 20) , .

Observing the first set 4 is added by three to get 7 like that we should add 3 to the 10 to get the answer in the second set.

We obtain second number to add first no+3 =second number then we finding the different number (third no that's25)now forth number +3=Fifth no(i.e 13) then we finding the 20i.e 3rd no-5=20 So we can find the all series every no .it's combination of two series .

Here there are two series of which first series consists of 4,7,10,...,16,19.here if we observe every number is incrementing with three. so the answer is 13(10+3) and the second series is 25 and 20.

Here in the 1st set we see that (4, 7, 25) and in the second set we see that (10, -, 20).

In the first we see that 4 + 3 is 7 and 25 - 5 we get 20. So 10 should be added with 3 to get answer 13.
