Correct Answer: 392
Explanation:
The sum of the digits in 708, 618 and 816 is 15, but not in 392.
Correct Answer: 72
Explanation:
With close observation, you will note that each number in the list is in the middle of two prime numbers. Thus:
4 is in the middle of 3 and 5, 6 is in the middle of 5 and 7, 12 is in the middle of 11 and 13, 18 is in the middle of 17 and 19, 30 is in the middle of 29 and 31. 42 is in the middle of 41 and 43, 60 is in the middle of 59 and 61.
Therefore, the next number would be the one that is in the middle of the next two prime numbers, which is 72 (which is in the middle of 71 and 73).
Correct Answer: 203
Explanation:
The given number series is 125, 138, 164, ?, 255
125
125 + 13x1 = 138
138 + 13x2 = 164
164 + 13x3 = 203
203 + 13x4 = 255
Hence, the missing number in the series is 203.
Correct Answer: 40
Explanation:
The given number series is 5, 8, 40, 90, 664
5
5 - 1 x 2 = 8
8 - 3 x 4 = 20 (NOT 40)
20 - 5 x 6 = 90
90 - 7 x 8 = 664
Correct Answer: 392
Explanation:
The given number series 11, 13, 30, 96, ? follows a pattern that,
11
11 x 1 + 2 = 13
13 x 2 + 4 = 30
30 x 3 + 6 = 96
96 x 4 + 8 = 392
Hence, the next number in the given series is 392.
Correct Answer: 81
Explanation:
The series follows the following pattern.
4
16 =
37 =
58 =
81 .
Here every number is based on the digits of previous number. Hence, 81 is the wrong number in the given series.
Correct Answer: 289
Explanation:
Here the given number series is 270, 261, 279, 252, 289, 243
270 - 9 = 261
261 + 18 = 279
279 - 27 = 252
252 + 36 = 288 (not equals to 289)
288 - 45 = 243
Hence, the odd number in the given number series is 289.
Correct Answer: 189
Explanation:
The given number series is 10, 21, 54, 109, 189
The series follows a pattern that
10 + 11 = 21
21 + 33 = 54
54 + 55 = 109
109 + 77 = 186
Hence the wrong number in the given number series is 189.
Correct Answer: 38
Explanation:
The given series is 15, 19, 27, 38, 55, 75
15
15 + 4 = 19
19 + 8 = 27
27 + 12 = 39
39 + 16 = 55
55 + 20 = 75
Hence, the odd number in the given series is 38.
Correct Answer: 4096
Explanation:
Here given series follows a pattern that
0.25, 8, 128, 1024, ?
0.25 x 32 = 8
8 x 16 = 128
128 x 8 = 1024
1024 x 4 = 4096
