I knowingly added this question because it's equivocal. I saw the question somewhere and solved it only for the publisher to tell I was wrong. Solved it another way and got a different answer (correct according to the publisher). I included the two answers in the options!
First Answer Difference between 15 and 7 = 8 Difference between 31 and 15 = 16 So, the series is n + (8 x y). Where y > 1 and n = previous number and y = position of previous number

First Answer Difference between 15 and 7 = 8 Difference between 31 and 15 = 16 So, the series is n + (8 x y). Where y > 1 and n = previous number and y = position of previous number
So, answer = 31 + (8 x 3) = 31 + 24 = 55
Second Answer 15 = (7 x 2) + 1 31 = (15 x 2) + 1
So, answer = (31 x 2) + 1 = 63
Answer: both 55 and 63 are correct

Bitcoin is built on a distributed digital record called a blockchain. As the name implies, blockchain is a linked body of data, made up of units called blocks that contain information about each and every transaction, including date and time, total value, buyer and seller, and a unique identifying code for each exchange. Entries are strung together in chronological order, creating a digital chain of blocks. “Once a block is added to the blockchain, it becomes accessible to anyone who wishes to view it, acting as a public ledger of cryptocurrency transactions,” says Stacey Harris, consultant for Pelicoin, a network of cryptocurrency ATMs. Blockchain is decentralized, which means it’s not controlled by any one organization. “It’s like a Google Doc that anyone can work on,” says Buchi Okoro, CEO and co-founder of African cryptocurrency exchange Quidax. “Nobody owns it, but anyone who has a link can contribute to it. And as different people update it, your copy also gets updated.”
The S&P 500 slumped 1.8% on Monday and Tuesday, thanks to China Evergrande, the Chinese property company that looks like it is ready to default on its more-than $300 billion in debt. Cries of the next Lehman Brothers—or maybe the next Silverado?—echoed through the canyons of Wall Street as investors prepared for the worst.
