A. 43 18 B. 41 44 C . 37 41 D . 38 41

Answer: Option C
Explanation:
This is a simple addition series with a random number, 18, interpolated as every third number.
In the series, 4 is added to each number except 18, to arrive at the next number
6. 20 20 17 17 14 14 11 What numbers should come next?

A 8 8 B. 8 9 C . 11 8 D . 8 9s

Answer: Option C
Explanation:
This is a simple subtraction with repetition series.
It begins with 20, which is repeated, then 3 is subtracted, resulting in 17, which is repeated, and so on.
Rule = (1st no) (1st no) (1st no - 3 = 2nd no) (2nd no repeat) (2nd no - 3 = 3rd no) (3rd no repeat). . .
Now (20) (20) (20 - 3 = 17) (17) (17 - 3 = 14) (14) (14 - 3 = 11) (11) (11 - 3 = 8) (8)
So the answer is e = 11 8.
7. 3 13 18 23 28 33 What number should come next?

A 38 43 B. 37 42 C . 38 44 D . 39 44

Answer: Option A
Explanation:
In this simple addition series, each number is 5 greater than the previous number.
Rule = (1st no) (1st no + 5 = 2nd no) (2nd no + 5 = 3rd no) . . .
Now (3) (3 + 5 = 8) (8 + 5 = 13) (13 + 5 = 18) (18 + 5 = 23) (23 + 5 = 28) (28 + 5 = 33) (33 + 5 = 38) (38 + 5 = 43)
So the answer is c = 38 43
8. Look at this series: 1000, 200, 40, . . . What number should come next?

A. 10 B. 8 C . 9 D . 12

Answer: Option B
Explanation:
This is a simple division series.
Each number is divided by 5.
Rule = (1st number / 5 = 2nd number) (2nd number / 5 = 3rd number)....
Now, (1000 / 5 = 200), (200 / 5 = 40), (40 / 5 = 8)...
So answer is a = 8.
9. Look at this series: 7, 10, 8, 11, 9, 12, . . . What number should come next?

A. 7 B. 10 C . 15 D . 18

Answer: Option B
Explanation:
This is a simple alternating addition and subtraction series.
In the first pattern, 3 is added;
In the second pattern, 2 is subtracted.
Rule =(1st number) (1st number + 3 = 2nd number) (2nd number - 2 = 3rd number) (3rd number + 3 = 4th number)
Now (7) (7 + 3 = 10) (10 - 2 = 8) (8 + 3 = 11) (11 - 2 = 9) (9 + 3 = 12) (12 - 2 = 10)...
So the answer is b = 10.
10. 1, 2, 3, 10, ____, 9802

A. 199 B. 999 C . 99 D . 298

Answer: Option C
Explanation:
[latex]{1}^{2}[/latex] + 1 = 1
[latex]{2}^{2}[/latex] - 1 = 3
[latex]{3}^{2}[/latex] + 1 = 10
[latex]{10}^{2}[/latex] - 1 = 99
11. 2, 10, 26, 50, ___, 122.

A. 82 B. 90 C . 80 D . 62

Answer: Option A
Explanation:

12. Look at this series: 14, 28, 20, 40, 32, 64, . . . What number should come next?

A. 52 B. 56 C . 86 D . 98

Answer: Option B
Explanation:
This is an alternating multiplication and subtracting series: First, multiply by 2 and then subtract 8.
Rule = (1st no.) (1st x 2 = 2nd no.) (2nd - 8 = 3rd no.) (3rd x 2 = 4th no.)....
Now (14) (14 x 2 = 28) (28 - 8 = 20) (20 x 2 = 40) (40 - 8 = 32) (32 x 2 = 64) (64 - 8 = 56)...
So the answer is b = 56.
13. Look at this series: 5.2, 4.8, 4.4, 4, . . . What number should come next?

A. 3 B. 3.6 C . 3.5 D . 3.3

Answer: Option B
Explanation:
In this simple subtraction series, each number decreases by 0.4.
Rule = (1st no.) (1st no. - 0.4 = 2nd no.) (2nd no. - 0.4 = 3rd number)...
Now (5.2) (5.2 - 0.4 = 4.8) (4.8 - 0.4 = 4.4) (4.4 - 0.4 = 4) (4 - 0.4 = 3.6) ...
So the answer is d = 3.6
14. 84 78 72 66 60 54 48 What number should come next?

A. 44 34 B. 42 36 C . 42 32 D . 40 34

Answer: Option B
Explanation:
In this simple subtraction series, each number is 6 less than the previous number.
Rule = (1st number) (1st no - 6 = 2nd no.) (2nd no - 6 = 3rd no). . .
Now (84) (84 - 6 = 78) (78 - 6 = 72) (72 - 6 = 66) (66 - 6 = 60) (60 - 6 = 54) (54 - 6 = 48) (48 - 6 = 42) (42 - 6 = 36).
So the answer is b = 42 36
15. Look at this series: 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, 12, . . . What number should come next?

A. 7 B. 10 C 15 D . 20

Answer: Option C
Explanation:
This alternating addition series begins with 3;
then 1 is added to give 4;
then 3 is added to give 7;
then 1 is added, and so on.
Rule = (first number + 1) (second number + 3) (third number + 1) (fourth number + 3)...
Now The series is 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, 12...
(3 + 1 = 4), (4 + 3 = 7), (7 + 1 = 8), (8 + 3 = 11), (11 + 1 = 12) (12 + 3 = 15)...
So the answer is d = 15.
16. Look at this series: 31, 29, 24, 22, 17, . . . What number should come next?

A. 15 B. 14 C . 13 D . 12

Answer: Option A
Explanation:
This is a simple alternating subtraction series, which subtracts 2, then 5.
Rule = (first number - 2) (second number - 5) (third number - 2) (fourth number - 5)...
Now The series is 31, 29, 24, 22, 17, . . .
(31 - 2 = 29), (29 - 5 = 24), (24 - 2 = 22), (22 - 5 = 17), (17 - 2 = 15)...
So the answer is a = 15.
17. Find the wrong number in the series. 1, 2, 6, 15, 31, 56, 91

A. 31 B. 71 C . 81 D . 91

A. 5 B. 26 C . 64 D . 17

Answer: Option C
Explanation:
[latex]{1}^{2}[/latex] + 1 , [latex]{2}^{2}[/latex] + 1, [latex]{3}^{2}[/latex] + 1 .........[latex]{8}^{2}[/latex] + 1 = 65
But 64 has been given here. So our wrong number is 64
