Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Solution
C -> A -> B -> D
C first introduces the series: 4, 12, 36, 108, ?.
A then identifies the pattern, where each term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by 3.
B follows directly from this pattern, since 108 × 3 = 324.
D finally states a general property of the resulting geometric progression, where a middle term is the geometric mean of the preceding and succeeding terms.
