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: A) 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.

Answer: C) 35 Explanation: 48, 54, 63, 81 and 105 are divisible by 3 but not 35.

Answer: B) 14 Explanation: Given Number series is :   3   4   14   48   576   27648   It follows a pattern that,   3   4   4 x 3 = 12   but not 14   12 x 4 = 48   48 x 12 = 576   576 x 48 = 27648       Hence, the odd one in the given Number Series is 14.

Answer: B) 72 Explanation: With close observation, you will note that each number in the list is in the middle of two prime numbers. Thus: 4 is in the middle of 3 and 5, 6 is in the middle of 5 and 7, 12 is in the middle of 11 and 13, 18 is in the middle of 17 and 19, 30 is in the middle of 29 and 31. 42 is in the middle of 41 and 43, 60 is in the middle of 59 and 61. Therefore, the next number would be the one that is in the middle of the next two prime numbers, which is 72 (which is in the middle of 71 and 73).

Answer: D) Palkuriki Somanatha Explanation:

Answer: C) 82.5 Explanation: The given series    12   24   26.5   79.5   ?   330 follows a pattern that,   12 x 2 = 24   24 + 2.5 = 26.5   26.5 x 3 = 79.5   79.5 + 3 = 82.5   82.5 x 4 = 330   Hence, the missing number is 82.5
