iii)3rd, 6th, 9th terms i.e, 4, 8, 16
In each one of i, ii, iii, each term is twice the preceding term.
So, 9 is wrong and must be replaced by (4*2) = 8 - 1. In the following question, various terms of an alphanumerical series are given with one or more terms missing as shown by (?).Choose the missing terms out of the given alternatives. 2Z5, 7Y7, 14X9, 23W11, 34V13, ?

Correct Answer: 47U15
Explanation:
The first numbers increase by 5, 7, 9, 11....
The letters move one step backward.
The last numbers are consecutive odd numbers.
Correct Answer: 5000

Each term of the series is the product of the preceding two terms
So, 5000 is wrong and it must be replaced by (500*50) = 25000
Correct Answer: 71
Explanation:
Fiest series : 3, 5, 7, 9
Second series : 5, 19, 41, ?
Difference of Second series are 14, 22, 30 etc
Next term is 41+30 i.e equal to 71
Correct Answer: 99
Explanation:
Correct Answer: 48
Explanation:
Take a Look at this series :
- = 8 - 4 = 4
- = 27 - 9 = 18
- = 64 - 16 = 48
- = 125 - 25 = 100
- = 216 - 36 = 180
- = 343 - 49 = 294
- = 512 - 64 = 448
Correct Answer: 91
Explanation:
The difference of the two consecutive numbers are 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 35.
This is clearly ,
Here 35 is wrong, So our wrong number is 91
Correct Answer: 102
Explanation:
Here the series of the form is
53 x 2 - 4 = 106 - 4 = 102
Correct Answer: 182
Explanation:
The given series follows a logic that
11 x 12, 12 x 13, 13 x 14, 14 x 15, 15 x 16,...
So the missing number is 13 x 14 = 182
Correct Answer: 34
Explanation:
The difference between consecutive numbers of the given series are respectively 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, and 15.
Therefore, 24+11=35 But in your problem it is given as 34.so 34 is wrong number
Correct Answer: G, I
Explanation:
Z - 2 = X
X - 5 = S
S - 10 = I
I - 17 = R
R - 26 = R
R - 37 = G
G - 50 = I
The series 2, 5, 10, 17, 26, 37, 50 is obtained by the pattern +3, +5, +7, +9, . . . .
