Find the next number in the given number series? 96, 95, 87, 78, ?

Correct Answer: 244

Explanation:

The given number series 22, 26, 42, 78, 142, 244 follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 22 \\ 22 + 2 2 = 22 + 4 = 26 \\ 26 + 4 2 = 26 + 16 = 42 \\ 42 + 6 2 = 42 + 36 = 78 \\ 78 + 8 2 = 78 + 64 = 142 \\ 142 + 10 2 = 142 + 100 = 242 \end{gathered}$$ 

 

Hence, the odd one in the given number series is 244.

 

Correct Answer: 167

Explanation:

The given number series is 3, 5, 13, 43, 167

3

3 x 1 + 2 = 5

5 x 2 + 3 = 13

13 x 3 + 4 = 43

43 x 4 + 5 = 177 (not equal to 167)

 

Hence, the odd number in the given number sequence is 167. 

Correct Answer: 450

Explanation:

Given Series is 5, 14, 42, 107, 233, _?

5, 14, 42, 107, 233, _?

Differences is 9, 28, 65, 126

9 = 2^3 + 1

28 = 3^3 + 1

65 = 4^3 + 1

126 = 5^3 + 1

Now, next difference must be 6^3 + 1 = 217

Hence, next number in the given series = 233 + 217 = 450.

Correct Answer: 65

Explanation:

The given number series is 50, 51, 47, 56, 40, ?

 

$$\begin{gathered} 50 \\ 50 + 1 2 = 51 \\ 51 - 2 2 = 47 \\ 47 + 3 2 = 56 \\ 56 - 4 2 = 40 \\ 40 + 5 2 = 65 \end{gathered}$$

 

Hence, the next number in the given number series is 65.

Correct Answer: -1

Explanation:

3, 7, 6, 5, 9, 3, 12, 1, 15, ... has two different series

1) 3, 6, 9, 12, 15.....

2) 7, 5, 3, 1, .....

-1 is the next number.

Correct Answer: 2

Explanation:

Here the given number series is 2 4 27 256 3125 46656

It follows a pattern that,

$$\begin{gathered} 1 1 = 1 \\ 2 2 = 4 \\ 3 3 = 27 \\ 4 4 = 256 \\ 5 5 = 3125 \\ 6 6 = 46656 \end{gathered}$$

 

Hence the wrong number in the given number series is 2 instead of 1.

Correct Answer: 742

Explanation:

The given number series is 720, 732, 708, 742, 696

 

720

720 + 12 = 732

732 - 24 = 708

708 + 36 = 744 (Not 742)

744 - 48 = 696

 

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 742.

Correct Answer: 364

Explanation:

The given number series is 3, 12, 39, 120, 364

$$\begin{gathered} 3 \\ 3 + 3 2 = 3 + 9 = 12 \\ 12 + 3 3 = 12 + 27 = 39 \\ 39 + 3 4 = 39 + 81 = 120 \\ 120 + 3 5 = 120 + 243 = 363 ( Not 364 ) \end{gathered}$$

Correct Answer: NLI

Correct Answer: 450.187

Explanation:

Here the given number series  3, 10.5, 36.75, 128.625, ? follows a pattern that

3

3 x 3.5 = 10.5

10.5 x 3.5 = 36.75

36.75 x 3.5 = 128.625

128.625 x 3.5 = 450.187

 

Hence the next number in the given number series is 450.187.
