Correct Answer: 7.5
Explanation:
The given number series follows a pattern that
11
11 - 5.5 = 5.5
5.5 + 4.5 = 10
10 - 3.5 = 6.5
6.5 + 2.5 = 9
9 - 1.5 = 7.5
Hence, the next number in the given number series is 7.5.
Correct Answer: 278.5
Explanation:
The given number series is 35, 36, 55, 111, ?
35
35 x 1 + 1 = 36
36 x 1.5 + 1 = 55
55 x 2 + 1 = 111
111 x 2.5 + 1 = 278.5
Hence, the next number in the given number series is 278.5.
Correct Answer: 277
Explanation:
The given number series is
71 88 113 150 203 277
+17 +25 +37 +53 +74
+8 +12 +16 +21
+4 +4 +5
The series should be 71 88 112 150 203 276 i.e, the differences of the difference should be +4.
Hence, the odd man in the given series is 277.
Correct Answer: 70
Explanation:
Here the given series is 1, 3, 6, 11, 20, 37, ??,
and the logic behind the series is
1 x 2 + 1 = 3
3 x 2 + 0 = 6
6 x 2 + (-1) = 11
11 x 2 + (-2) = 20
20 x 2 + (-3) = 37
37 x 2 + (-4) = 70
Hence, the next number in the given series is 70.
Correct Answer: VWYZ
Explanation:
K+2 M+1 N-2 L, P+2 R+1 S-2 Q, V+1 W+2 Y+1 Z, J+2 L+1 M-2 K and W+2 Y+1 Z-2 X.
Except VWYZ, all the other groups follow similar pattern.
Correct Answer: 254
Explanation:
The given series 16, 254, 1296, 4096, 10000 follows a pattern that
Hence, the odd man in the series is 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 = 256 not 254.
Correct Answer: 56
Explanation:
The given number series 8, 18, 56, 232, 1165
8
8 x 2 + 2 = 18
18 x 3 + 3 = 57 (not 56)
57 x 4 + 4 = 232
232 x 5 + 5 = 1165
Hence, the odd man in the given series is 56.
Correct Answer: 40
Explanation:
The given number series is 180, 90, 60, 40, 36
It follows a pattern that,
180 x 1/2 = 90
90 x 2/3 = 60
60 x 3/4 = 45 (NOT 40)
45 x 4/5 = 36
Hence, the wrong number in the given series is 40.
Correct Answer: 80
