24.
90, 180, 12, 50, 100, 200, ?, 3, 50, 4, 25, 2, 6, 30, 3
150

225
250
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Clearly, 90 = 30 x 3, 180 = 6 x 30, 12 = 2 x 6, 50 = 25 x 2, 100 = 4 x 25, 200 = 50 x 4.

So, missing term = 3 x 50 = 150.

In this series take last two numbers 3, 30 and then multiply them by 3*30=90 (which is placed first, in a given series).

Then again go to last 2nd and 3rd numbers, 30*6=180 (which is placed after 90) , then again take last 3rd and 4th numbers 6*2=12 (which is placed after 180). Like this, multiply numbers from last and you will get the answers.
