Numbers in all the four figures given below follow a similar pattern. Find out the missing numbers.

The missing number in fig. 2 is:

Options

A. 16
B. 22
C. 7
D. 8

Answer

D

Explanation

The pattern is as follows: sum of the first and third numbers in the third row = number in the first row i.e. 9+ 4 = 13, Let the missing number be r. Then, Sum of the two numbers in the second row = Middle number in the third row i.e., x + 3 = 11 or, x=8 Therefore, missing number in the second row = 8
