Detailed Explanation & Answer
8 - 3 = 5
18 - 8 = 10
38 - 18 = 20

Following this pattern, the next difference should be double 20, which is 40.

To find X, we add 40 to the last term in the series:

38 + 40 = 78
8 - 3 = 5
18 - 8 = 10
38 - 18 = 20

इस पैटर्न के बाद, अगला अंतर दोगुना 20 होना चाहिए, जो कि 40 है।

X ज्ञात करने के लिए, हम श्रृंखला के अंतिम पद में 40 जोड़ते हैं:

38 + 40 = 78
