24.

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

150

175

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.

30 * 3 = 90,
30 * 6 = 180
6 * 2 = 12
25 * 2 = 50
25 * 4 = 100
50 * 4 = 200
50 * 3 = 150.

Multiplication in reverse order get the answer.

Last two digits multiple then you get the first term.

30 x 3 = 90.

30 x 6 = 180.
Similarly;
50 x 3 = 150.
