Question

Shelly did 12 sit-ups on Monday, 24 sit-ups on Tuesday, 48 sit-ups on Wednesday. If this pattern continues, the number of sit-ups will Shelly do on Thursday is

  1. 56    
  2. 86    
  3. 96    
  4. 98    

hintHint:

In this question, we are required to identify the pattern to find the number of sit-ups that Shelly will do on Thursday. Here, the pattern is number of sit-ups on a particular day = number of sit-ups on the previous day x 2

The correct answer is: 96


    Step by step solution:
    Number of sit ups in a particular day = Number of sit ups in the previous day × 2
    number of sit-ups on Monday = 12
    number of sit-ups on Tuesday = 12 x 2 = 24
    number of sit-ups on Wednesday = 24 x 2 = 48
    Therefore, number of sit-ups on Thursday = 48 x 2 = 96
    Thus, on Thursday Shelly will do 96 sit-ups.
    Hence, option(c) is the correct option.
