The given series is 36, 34, 30, 28, 24 by subtracting with 2&4 we get next number to the 24.
36-2=34
34-4=30
30-2=28
28-4=24
24-2=22.
22 is the final number which is next to the 24 in the given above series.
Therefore, 22 is the next number.
36-2=34
34-4=30
30-2=28
28-4=24
24-2=22.
22 is the final number which is next to the 24 in the given above series.
Therefore, 22 is the next number.

Add Subtracted to 6, 4 or 4 digit number but this simple logic.
36- 2 = 34.
34- 4 = 30.
30 -2 = 28.
24 -4 = 22.
The number should be 22 is correct answers.
36- 2 = 34.
34- 4 = 30.
30 -2 = 28.
24 -4 = 22.
The number should be 22 is correct answers.

36 - 30 = 6.
34 - 28 = 6.
30 - 24 = 6.
28 - 22 = 6.
The answer is 22
34 - 28 = 6.
30 - 24 = 6.
28 - 22 = 6.
The answer is 22

6*6 = 36-2 = 34.
6*5 = 30-2 = 28.
6*4 = 24-2 = 22.
In this way.
6*5 = 30-2 = 28.
6*4 = 24-2 = 22.
In this way.
