Answer: A) 148 Explanation: 1 x 1 + 1 x 1 = (1 + 1) = 2 2 x 2 + 2 x 2 = (4 + 4) = 8 8 x 3 + 3 x 3 = (24 + 9) = 33 33 x 4 + 4 x 4 = (132 + 16) = 148 148 x 5 + 5 x 5 = (740 + 25) = 765.

Answer: A) 80 Explanation: Next number of the sequence 1, 4, 12, 32,... 1 = 2 x 20 4 = 2 x 21 12 = 3 x 22 32 = 4 x 23 80 = 5 x 24.

Answer: B) 54055 Explanation: Here the given series follows a pattern that, multiplying the number with odd numbers in decreasing order starting with 13. That is,   6 × 13 = 78   65 × 11 = 858   858 × 9 = 7722   7722 × 7 = 54054   54054 × 5 = 270270   Hence, the wrong number is 54055

Answer: D) 133 Explanation: Here among the given numbers, 3, 19, 67 are prime numbers. And 133 is not a prime number.   Hence, the odd number of the given numbers is 133.

Answer: B) 32 Explanation: Here the given series follows a pattern that, 22 - 0 = 4   32 - 1 = 8   42 - 2 = 14 52 - 3 = 22 62 - 4 = 32 Hence, the missing number is 32     Method 2 :: The difference between 4 and 8 is 4, the difference between 8 and 14 is 6, the difference between 14 and 22 is 8. So the next difference between 22 and the next number will be 10 since it follows (4,6,8,10 - add +2 each time) Hence, 22 + 10 = 32 is the missing number.

Answer: B) 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.

Answer: D) Matoshree Explanation: Prime Minister NarendraModi released a book authored by LokSabha Speaker SumitraMahajan in New Delhi, recently. The book is titled as 'Matoshree'.

Answer: B) 63 Explanation: Here the series follows the pattern that, product of succesive prime numbers i.e,  2 × 3 = 6  3 × 5 = 15  5 × 7 = 35  7 × 11 = 77  11 × 13 = 143  13 × 17 = 221  17 × 19 = 323 So here in place of 77 the number 63 is written. So the wrong number is 63.
