Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Answer: XXVI
Explanation:
Convert each term from Roman numerals to Arabic numbers: II = 2, VI = 6, X = 10, XIV = 14, XVIII = 18, XXII = 22.
Observe the pattern: each term increases by 4 (common difference = 4).
Add 4 to the last term: 22 + 4 = 26. Convert 26 back to Roman numerals: XXVI.
Therefore the next element in the series is XXVI.
