How many 3s are there in the following sequence such that the sum of two immediately following digits is greater than the sum of the two immediately preceding digits ?
`"5 3 6 7 3 5 6 3 9 8 3 9 9 3 5 6 4 3 4 3 2 8 3 8 3 9 3 5 4 3 6 8"`

A

Five

B

Six

C

More than seven

D

None of these

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The given number sequence is as follows:

i.e. `56 ul(3) 98 implies (9+8) gt (5+6) implies 17 gt 11,`
`98ul(3) 99implies (9+9) gt (9+8) implies 18 gt 17,`
And so on.
[Note: Sum of the pair of following digits must be greater than the sum of the pair of preceding digits.]
Therefore, total number of such 3s = six.
