Answer: Option
Explanation:

(0 + 2 + 6 + 4) - 2 = 10

and (6 + 2 + 10 + 8) - 2 = 24

Therefore, (4 + 14 + 12 + 10) - 2 = 38.

BASICALLY, WE ANALYSE THE QUESTION.

SEE,
0 + 2 + 6 + 4) - 2 = 10.
and (6 + 2 + 10 + 8) - 2 = 24.
Therefore, (4 + 14 + 12 + 10) - 2 = 38.

IN THIS QUESTION, WE CAN ARRIVE AT 10 AND 24 ONLY AFTER WE DEDUCT 2.
SO PATTERN FOLLOWS AND WE DO EXACTLY SAME THING AGAIN,
IT CAN BE ANY NUMBER NOT ONLY 2.

The Answer will be 36 every time we see the middle no is exactly divided by one no. And the middle is equal to the addition of the rest of the number.

((0+4)-1)+((6+2)-1) = 10.

((6+10)-1)+((2+8)-1) = 24.

((4+12)-1)+((10+14)-1) = 38.

0+2+4+6=12-2=10,
6+8+10+2=26-2=24,
4+10+12+14=40-2=38.

Add all number and subtract 2 from it then you will get middle term.

(0+2+6+4)-2=10.
And (6+2+10+8)-2=24.
There for (4+14+12+10)-2=38.

((0+6)+(2+4)-2)=10
((6+2)+(8+10)-2)=24
((4+14)+(10+12)-2)=38.

(0+2+4+6) -2=10, (2+8+6+10) -2=24, so (4+12+14+10) -2 = 38.
