Correct Answer: 554
Explanation:
The given number series follows a pattern that
5 x 5 ? 1 = 24
24 x 4 ? 2 = 94
94 x 3 ? 3 = 279
279 x 2 ? 4 = 554
Correct Answer: 22
Explanation:
In the given series 1 4 9 16 22 36
1 = 1 x 1
4 = 2 x 2
9 = 3 x 3
16 = 4 x 4
25 = 5 x 5 (Not 22)
36 = 6 x 6
Hence, the odd man in the series is 22.
Correct Answer: 69
Explanation:
The given number series is 152, 124, 96, 69, 40
152
152 - 28 = 124
124 - 28 = 96
96 - 28 = 68 (not 69)
68 - 28 = 40
Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 69.
Correct Answer: 144
Explanation:
Here the series follows,
194
194 - (1x1 - 1) = 194
194 - (2x2 - 1) = 191
191 - (3x3 - 1) = 183
183 - (4x4 - 1) = 168
168 - (5x5 - 1) = 144
Correct Answer: 150
Explanation:
The numbers are 7 x 8, 8 x 9, 9 x 10, 10 x 11, 11 x 12, 12 x 13.

33 x 4 + 4 x 4 = (132 + 16) = 148
148 x 5 + 5 x 5 = (740 + 25) = 765.
